- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR13.1 And Bishnoi strikes! The around the wicket angle works. It's one that skids straight with the angle, Sudharsan is looking to go inside out but can't time this at all. Chips it tamely to Pooran at cover, who takes it above head height 122/212.1 Oh, what a catch! Gill hit that so sweetly and it looked to be headed for the stands. But Aiden Markram is on his toes at long-on and he holds on high above his head and does incredibly well to maintain his balance and not fall over. Took it right on the edge! Avesh Khan bowled this full outside off, tempting Gill to go big, and Gill obliges. But the slower ball does the trick for Avesh 120/116.4 Shardul Thakur takes a blinder and out comes Rathi's notebook on the ground! Buttler looks to sweep conventionally this time as Rathi bowls the carrom ball. Top edges it and Shardul at short leg has to run a way to his left but he grabs it on the dive and holds on. Had his shades on and everything. Cool as you like it, Shardul! 145/413.6 Bishnoi gets two in an over! On a length around off and going on straight with the angle. Washington looks to cut but gets a bottom edge onto the stumps! Bishnoi pumps his fists! It's been a tough season for him, but he's making the difference here! 127/319.3 Up goes the finger! Shardul Thakur took two wickets with full tosses against KKR, and he has got one here today! Rutherford moves across a long way, expecting the wide yorker. But Shardul goes full on the stumps. He misses his length but Rutherford misses his flick and is struck in front. Umpire had no hesitation in giving that out 176/519.4 Shardul strikes again with another full toss! He is on a hat-trick! Low full toss outside off and Tewatia moves across to try and heave it down the ground. No timinng on that, it goes high in the air and Markram isn't dropping those at long-on! They have a check for the height on the full toss, but the umpire's check confirms it was a fair delivery 176/6Extras9 (w 9)TOTAL180/6 (20 Overs, RR: 9)Fall of wickets: 1-120 (Shubman Gill, 12.1 ov), 2-122 (Sai Sudharsan, 13.1 ov), 3-127 (Washington Sundar, 13.6 ov), 4-145 (Jos Buttler, 16.4 ov), 5-176 (Sherfane Rutherford, 19.3 ov), 6-176 (Rahul Tewatia, 19.4 ov)

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR11.1 Markram falls almost exactly like how Shubman Gill got out! And it's Gill who grabs it at long-off! Slower ball on a length outside off, Markram looks to go down the ground. Gets it off the toe end of the bat. Gill settles under it and it's safe hands from the skipper! Falls for 58 off 31, a fine knock comes to an end 123/26.2 taken at deep third! LSG and Pant finally run out of their luck! Pant had started looking good, but, as is his style, he keeps going for the big hits. Washington, at deep third, was placed straighter than usual, and kept his eyes on the ball nicely. Prasidh, meanwhile, again bowled it short at Pant. But this time, the LSG captain decided to make room and step out to launch him over the off side. The ball, though, finished around off, and took off from the top edge 65/115.2 Pooran picks out long-on! Rashid continues to win the battle against Pooran, even though he did take a few hits. The two have a bit of friendly banter as Pooran walks off. Length ball angled across him, Pooran goes for a big hit down the ground but doesn't hit this as well as he usually does. Shahrukh Khan makes no mistake 155/318.4 Washington cleans up the left-hander! Miller attempts a sweep but misses and loses his off stump! 174/4Extras9 (b 1, w 8)TOTAL186/4 (19.3 Overs, RR: 9.53)Fall of wickets: 1-65 (Rishabh Pant, 6.2 ov), 2-123 (Aiden Markram, 11.1 ov), 3-155 (Nicholas Pooran, 15.2 ov), 4-174 (David Miller, 18.4 ov)
