- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR1.5 Kohli walks back! Short of length outside off, just holding its line after pitching. Kohli follows it with his hands, looking to work it behind point but gets an outside edge. Samson grabs it with reverse mitts 9/110.4 this time it goes towards Ashwin who takes a good, overhead catch. A length ball angling across. du Plessis looks to smash it through covers but gets an outside edge that flies towards short third man. Ashwin leaps and takes it with both hands. du Plessis walks back for 25 off 27 79/215.3 taken right at the edge of the long-off boundary. A length ball around off, Patidar looks to go down the ground this time but doesn't the required power behind it. Buttler takes it overhead and for a moment, he lost his balance and and looked like he would step outside the boundary. So he lobs the ball up, regains his balance and pouches it again. They are checking upstairs but Buttler never stepped outside 130/413.6 caught at fine leg! Short down the leg side, Maxwell goes for the pull but he hasn't middled it. McCoy dives forward and takes it low. That's a big, big wicket 111/317.4 123.8kph. Short of length outside off, goes for the cut but ends up slicing it towards backward point where Ashwin moves to his left and takes it 141/518.1 a big moment in the game! A length ball outside off. Karthik looks to go down the ground but gets it right from the toe end of the bat. A straightforward catch for Parag at long-on 146/618.2 middle and leg stumps have been flattened. A 147kph yorker from Prasidh, right in the blockhole, and Hasaranga had no answer to it. Fails to get his bat down in time. Prasidh on a hat-trick 146/719.1 fuller on the stumps, Harshal moves across and looks to help it over short fine leg but misses and the ball hits the off stump 154/8Extras15 (b 4, lb 4, w 7)TOTAL157/8 (20 Overs, RR: 7.85)Did not bat: Mohammed SirajFall of wickets: 1-9 (Virat Kohli, 1.5 ov), 2-79 (Faf du Plessis, 10.4 ov), 3-111 (Glenn Maxwell, 13.6 ov), 4-130 (Rajat Patidar, 15.3 ov), 5-141 (Mahipal Lomror, 17.4 ov), 6-146 (Dinesh Karthik, 18.1 ov), 7-146 (Wanindu Hasaranga, 18.2 ov), 8-154 (Harshal Patel, 19.1 ov)

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR5.1 and he gets a wicket immediately but not in the manner we were imagining it to be. He is extremely lucky here. Bowls a wide half-volley, which Jaiswal usually puts over the infield but this time he finds Kohli at point 61/111.4 Hasaranga has got Samson again. He tries a really ambitious charge vat Hasaranga, who goes wider with the wrong'un, beats him, and gets the stumping 113/216.5 Padikkal is gone, looking for a ramp. Hazlewood has dug this in short, Padikkal arches back to try to run it over the keeper's head, but the line cramps him up and goes off the glove to the keeper 148/3Extras0TOTAL161/3 (18.1 Overs, RR: 8.86)Fall of wickets: 1-61 (Yashasvi Jaiswal, 5.1 ov), 2-113 (Sanju Samson, 11.4 ov), 3-148 (Devdutt Padikkal, 16.5 ov)
