- BATSMENRB4s6sSR2.2 Shami breaches the defences of Conway. That's his 100th IPL wicket. Nice and full, angling in from round the stumps, seaming in at Conway who aims for a booming drive and misses. Bowled through the gate. The ball clatters into middle stump 14/117.1 Joseph misses the yorker, but is still a hard-to-hit middle-stump full-toss, which is spliced into the hands of long-on. Is that a high full-toss? Gaikwad thinks so.
Gaikwad has asked for a review. The umpires converge and ask for a review. The ball dips below the waist and therefore Gaikwad has to go. End of a terrific innings from Gaikwad. He falls eight short of a century 151/55.5 Rashid strikes back, Moeen has nicked off. Easier decision for umpire Khalid. Rashid takes this wrong'un away from the left-handed Moeen who throws his bat at ball once again. He edges it behind to Saha who clings onto the catch 50/27.4 Rashid takes out both Moeen and Stokes. Pushed through flatter and quicker, skids away outside off from over the stumps. Stokes chops at it and edges it behind to Saha who makes this low catch look ridiculously easy 70/312.5 Maiden IPL wicket for Josh Little. Rayudu dashes out of the crease, swings for the hills once again, but does not lay bat on ball. Little cranks it up to almost 140ks and nails the stumps 121/418.3 throat-high short ball angling across Dube. He goes for another hook, this time he holes out to Rashid Khan at deep square leg. Another mis-hit and this goes to the fielder. Dube has been put out of his misery 163/717.4 Joseph goes for the yorker, marginally misses it, but has Jadeja holing out to deep midwicket. Mighty full on the pads, Jadeja picks it up and picks out the fielder on the boundary 153/6Extras8 (b 1, lb 6, nb 1)TOTAL178/7 (20 Overs, RR: 8.9)Fall of wickets: 1-14 (Devon Conway, 2.2 ov), 2-50 (Moeen Ali, 5.5 ov), 3-70 (Ben Stokes, 7.4 ov), 4-121 (Ambati Rayudu, 12.5 ov), 5-151 (Ruturaj Gaikwad, 17.1 ov), 6-153 (Ravindra Jadeja, 17.4 ov), 7-163 (Shivam Dube, 18.3 ov)Bowling O M R W Econ 0s 4s 6s WD NB Mohammed Shami 4 0 29 2 7.25 13 2 2 0 1 HH Pandya 3 0 28 0 9.33 6 2 2 0 0 JB Little 4 0 41 1 10.25 10 4 3 0 0 Rashid Khan 4 0 26 2 6.50 10 2 1 0 0 AS Joseph 4 0 33 2 8.25 8 0 3 0 0 Yash Dayal 1 0 14 0 14.00 2 0 2 0 0

- BATSMENRB4s6sSR3.5 wicket number no. 1 for Hangargekar. In his first over. Outswinger from the hand, moves away. It is widish to start off with it. Saha still flashes at it, gets a thick edge, which settles with deep third this time 37/114.6 this one is an easy catch for eep midwicket. Tries the pull but it goes off the toe end of the bat as he is dragging it from wide outside off. Taken at deep midwicket this time 138/49.3 oh not the best delivery to get a wicket. Short and wide, Sudharsan looks for the cut, but it is too wide for him, and he just toe-ends it to Dhoni 90/212.1 Jadeja has not given Pandya anything so far. So he goes down to look to sweep. Jadeja keeps doing what he has been doing. Look to hit top of off. Pandya sweeps from around off, misses it completely, and Jadeja hits somewhere near the top of off 111/317.6 big wicket. Looks like a slower ball. Shankar is looking to go in the air and down the ground. Gets the right length, right in the slot, but he seems to have bowled a slower ball. Shankar ends up toe-ending it for a catch half way between mid-off and long-off. CSK still alive 156/5Extras12 (lb 6, nb 2, w 4)TOTAL182/5 (19.2 Overs, RR: 9.41)Fall of wickets: 1-37 (Wriddhiman Saha, 3.5 ov), 2-90 (Sai Sudharsan, 9.3 ov), 3-111 (Hardik Pandya, 12.1 ov), 4-138 (Shubman Gill, 14.6 ov), 5-156 (Vijay Shankar, 17.6 ov)
