- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR4.2 strong response from Naveen! The bowler goes slow, entices Salt with a full and wide ball, and the change of pace does the trick. Salt throws his bat at it, looking to pump another boundary through the off side, but the has flummoxed him. Takes an edge, flies to Rahul's right, and the keeper dives to seal the deal. 61/111.6 holes out for 81 and finally Bishnoi can smile. He went full outside off, and Narine ended up slicing this shot down the V. Padikkal, from long off, takes a few steps in, and this time takes a clean catch. Bishnoi pats Narine on the back as the allrounder trods out of the ground. Another stunning innings from the maestro 140/215.1 dream start for Yudhvir! A wicket first ball and he folds his hands in celebration. Back of a length ball outside off. Raghuvanshi tries to play it towards deep third by attempting to poke it, but all it does is take an edge to the wicketkeeper 171/414.2 stunning catch by K Gowtham! Naveen does not change his plans despite the adversity. Goes full and wide again, and Russell toe-ends the attempted launch over cover. Ball goes high up and three fielders look to converge but it is K Gowtham, who turns and runs back from cover, who dives away from the action, facing the crowd, and takes a brilliant two-hander. Russell gone for a strike-rate of 150 167/317.6 Stoinis at square leg makes no mistake! Bowls the bouncer but also rolls his fingers over the ball. Rinku tries to get under the ball and hook it over backward square leg, but it hits him high on the bat. The ball pops up for square leg's simple grab. Rinku's struggles continue 200/519.3 KL with a stunning catch! Slower ball bouncer on middle and leg. Iyer attempts the pull behind square but ends up gloving it. Rahul dives to his left, at full stretch with his left-hand sticking out, and the ball stays glued! Thakur folds his hands in admiration of Rahul. Rubbish line but great result. 224/6Extras13 (w 13)TOTAL235/6 (20 Overs, RR: 11.75)Fall of wickets: 1-61 (Phil Salt, 4.2 ov), 2-140 (Sunil Narine, 11.6 ov), 3-167 (Andre Russell, 14.2 ov), 4-171 (Angkrish Raghuvanshi, 15.1 ov), 5-200 (Rinku Singh, 17.6 ov), 6-224 (Shreyas Iyer, 19.3 ov)
