    1.1 has Guptill been run out?! Full and angled into middle and leg stump. Guptill bunts it down the ground towards mid on and calls for the single immediately. Could be touch-and-go. In fact, he is indeed short. Excellent work by Sinclair, who swooped in, collected it cleanly and threw down the stumps at the bowler's end while sprawling across the turf! 5/1
    4.5 edged and taken! Paul is absolutely pumped; Deyal disgusted! Back of a length delivery outside off stump that seems to skid through slightly quicker than Deyal expects. He is trying to guide it down to third man but the extra pace means that he ends up feathering it through to the keeper! 46/2
    13.1 and he knocks Walton over! Flighted up beautifully on a length on middle and off stump. Walton tries to smash it into next week but in that pursuit, he loses his shape completely. Gets nowhere close to the ball as it sneaks past the bat and crashes into the stumps. Tahir does his customary celebratory run before finishing with the 'Siu' celebration! 105/3
    18.2 stumped by a mile! Slowed up beautifully on a length outside off stump. Carty comes down the track, looking to smash it over the bowler's head but gets nowhere close to the pitch of the ball. Swishes at thin air and Azam does well to gather low and whip off the bails! Carty is disconsolate as he walks back but this has been a truly special innings, and one that has taken the Knight Riders to the brink of a 180-plus total! 167/5
    17.1 well, this certainly helps! Back of a length delivery on off stump that skids through. Pollard has an agricultural swipe across the line and misses it completely. Gets pinned on the back leg, right in front of middle and off, and the umpire has no hesitation in raising his finger. Pollard was ready to walk before being talked into a review by his partner. More in hope than anything else. No bat involved and that would have been thundering into middle stump! 150/4
    18.4 frantic running, and Alleyne is on his way! Very full just outside off stump. Hosein drags it towards mid wicket and Alleyne, for some reason, hares down. Hosein has not moved a muscle, though, and sends his partner back. The fielder fires in an accurate throw at the bowler's end and Tahir does the rest, catching Alleyne short of his ground! 169/6
    18.5 two wickets in the over for Tahir, three wickets for the Warriors! Hard length on middle and leg stump. Hosein tries to swipe it over cow corner but the ball just skids through a little quicker than expected. Hits his bat high and arrows towards deep mid wicket, where Sinclair does the rest! 169/7

    19.5 holes out to long off! Nails the full, wide, off-pace delivery to perfection. Asks Hinds to fetch it but he just does not have any pace to work with. Chips it and hits it straight down substitute fielder Anderson's throat at long off! 172/8

    6.2 Ayub bites the dust! A bit of a drag-down on leg stump. Ayub tries to smash it into the stands but loses his shape just a little. The ball also sticks in the surface, meaning that it comes off the toe-end and lobs towards short fine leg, where Patel does the rest! 56/1
    12.4 has Hosein taken it?! Full and wide outside off stump again. Smith sits deep in his crease and throws the kitchen sink at it. Slices it towards deep point, where Hosein stoops down low and seems to hold onto the chance. Looked like the umpires wanted to check if the catch was clean but they are happy now. Smith has to walk back! 117/2

    13.4 Hetmyer falls! In the slot outside off stump. Hetmyer plants his front foot and absolutely laces his cover drive. The only problem, though, is that he hits it straight to Alleyne at extra cover, who, after dropping two chances, holds onto this one! 126/3
    14.4 Azam perishes! Full and hung outside off stump. Azam, knowing that there are three fielders on the off-side fence, tries to shovel it over square leg. Gets down on one knee and gets the elevation but not the distance. Deyal settles himself at deep square leg and snares the chance! 139/4
