0.1 nicked and gone! Cummins breaks through straightaway and there is a massive roar around the Rajiv Gandhi Stadium in Hyderabad! Back of a length in the sixth stump channel and this seems to nip away just a smidgen. Nair goes feeling for it away from his body and feathers it through to Kishan. The crowd erupts, and this is the start of dreams for SRH! 0/1

2.1 edged and Kishan gobbles it up! Cummins is on absolute fire, and they cannot play him! Banged into the track on middle and off, perhaps anticipating du Plessis charging down the track. He does so anyway and then has an agricultural mow across the line. Only manages a faint tickle and Kishan was never going to drop that. Cummins wheels away in celebration, du Plessis looks at his bat, and those in orange in the stands are thoroughly enjoying themselves! 6/2

4.1 goes straight up, and pouched by Kishan! Cummins has three in the powerplay, and the SRH captain is dealing Capital damage! On a length on leg stump and this seems to just hold in the surface. Porel looks for that pick-up stroke over square leg but the lack of pace off the surface means he gets underneath it too much. Kishan calls early, settles under the high ball and completes the catch in the short backward square leg region. Top, top catch, and a top, top start for SRH! 15/3

7.1 nicked and taken! Another catch for Ishan Kishan, and the Capitals plunge further into crisis! Angled in full just outside off. Rahul looks to drive it down the ground but the ball straightens just enough to take the outside edge. Beautiful, beautiful bowling, and equally impressive work behind the stumps, with Kishan snaffling that up to his right. Rahul shakes his head as he walks back, and DC are in all sorts here! 29/5

5.5 does him all ends up, and Captain Fantastic can do no wrong tonight! Slower ball angled across on a length wide outside off. Axar looks for the booming drive but is too early into the stroke. The bottom hand comes off and the ball spoons up towards mid off. Cummins back-pedals, keeps his eyes on the ball and snares a smart chance over his right shoulder. DC four down inside the powerplay, and the SRH-pro crowd is thrilled to bits! 26/4

12.1 oh my goodness - that is a run-out of catastrophic proportions! Back of a length on the stumps. Stubbs tucks it towards deep mid wicket and is always intent on two. In fact, he is so intent that he runs the second all by himself, with Nigam not even moving a muscle at the other end. Stubbs, eventually, passes Nigam at the batter's end, which means that Nigam has to sacrifice his wicket for the senior batter. Good work by Verma on the deep mid wicket fence, and DC sink further into trouble! 62/6

19.4 miscued and taken comfortably on the fence! Off-pace and banged in so short outside off that Malinga's toe-nail was in danger for a while. The ball gets up high, well above the batter's right shoulder and Ashutosh has to fetch it, while also making all the pace. Fails to do so and offers the simplest of catches to Manohar at deep mid wicket. The plan comes off, and Ashutosh departs after a solid knock! 128/7
