- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR5.1 what a start to your spell! Buttler's stumps rattled, and Avesh has struck. Full around off stump, angling in to the stumps as Buttler tries to welcome him with a sloggy swipe to long on. Misses the connection, and Avesh hits bulls eye 42/19.1 around the stumps. Full on off. Padikkal goes for a reverse sweep, but he's top edged it only for first slip to eat him up! Padikkal tried to hit it over conventional short third man, but was through the shot too early. Gowtham starts with a bang 64/38.3 is he lbw on a full toss? Yes! Slides this full toss into the stumps, and Samson misses the flick from near his knee roll. Hits him, and the umpire has an easy decision to make. Samson does not review 60/29.5 bowled 'im! And Rassie is out after a boundary. Gowtham continues around the stumps. Gets this full ball on middle to go straight through. Rassie misses the cut, the ball goes past the blade, and off stump is broken. 67/418.2 full and wide of off, as he drags that to deep point 135/519.5 is that a clean catch by Gowtham at fine leg? Yup, looks like. But the umpire will check even as Parag is ready to walk back. A slower-ball bouncer from Holder on off, and he gets extra bounce. Gowtham has to go low, but takes it well in the end 163/6Extras9 (lb 3, w 6)TOTAL165/6 (20 Overs, RR: 8.25)Fall of wickets: 1-42 (Jos Buttler, 5.1 ov), 2-60 (Sanju Samson, 8.3 ov), 3-64 (Devdutt Padikkal, 9.1 ov), 4-67 (Rassie van der Dussen, 9.5 ov), 5-135 (Ravichandran Ashwin, 18.2 ov), 6-163 (Riyan Parag, 19.5 ov)

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR0.1 peach of a ball! Comes around the stumps, bowls full, ball originates outside off but swings in with the angle. Rahul can't get any bat on it with the late swing, and Boult's angle has worked against Rahul! Through the gap between bat and pad as Rahul tried to mow it through the leg side 0/115.3 grabbed at long-on! de Kock had to go after Chahal, but he falls. Is it all over for Super Giants? Short of a length and wide of off, as he pulled across the line only to find Parag on the fence. Chahal helps himself to a quiet celebration 101/60.2 two wickets in three balls! The new-ball master is at it. The Gowtham experiment has not worked, Boult too good for him with the new cherry. Boult comes over the stumps. Full on middle, and angling into leg stump. Gowtham can't get bat on ball. 1/23.3 in the air and mid on - Ashwin - pockets that with ease. Prasidh bowls short of a length, Holder looks to be in position to pull, but the bat's face is looking up, and has sliced the shot in the air. A fist pump from Prasidh as Super Giants go 14 for 3 14/39.1 crashed into the stumps! Sen has his first IPL wicket. The middle and leg stumps are shaken. On a good length on middle, as Hooda swings across the line and misses. Hooda was standing on leg stump there, with his front leg out of the way. Clean bowled 52/411.6 straight to long-off! Skips down the pitch early - and he had to get bat on ball once he had danced down - as Chahal went full and outside off. Badoni looks to loft, but finds the fielder bang where he was placed on the boundary 74/515.5 bowled him around his legs! Pandya was across his stumps really early, and missed his attempted sweep there. Tossed up - and looked like the wrong 'un too - on a fullish length on middle and off. Pandya ended up down on his knees way outside off, and the ball crashed into the stumps as he missed 102/717.5 animated appeal for leg before, but turned down. And Samson reviews. A yorker length ball on middle and leg, after being tossed up. He had his front leg out of the way, and missed the ball while trying to jam. There is no inside edge there as well. And replays show that would hit the base of middle stump 126/8Extras5 (lb 1, w 4)TOTAL162/8 (20 Overs, RR: 8.1)Did not bat: Ravi BishnoiFall of wickets: 1-0 (KL Rahul, 0.1 ov), 2-1 (Krishnappa Gowtham, 0.2 ov), 3-14 (Jason Holder, 3.3 ov), 4-52 (Deepak Hooda, 9.1 ov), 5-74 (Ayush Badoni, 11.6 ov), 6-101 (Quinton de Kock, 15.3 ov), 7-102 (Krunal Pandya, 15.5 ov), 8-126 (Dushmantha Chameera, 17.5 ov)
