    0.3 Deshpande bowls ahead of Rabada, and in three balls he has got Curran out. Sharp short ball, at him, Curran pulls, gets a top edge to third man, where Nortje is back-pedalling, takes it head high, keeps an eye on the rope, releases the ball before stepping over, and then comes back to take the catch 0/1
    14.4 Dhawan dropped the easy one, but takes the difficult one. Du Plessis charges at him, Rabada follows him, it goes off the inside half of the bottom of the bat, and Dhawan dives forward at long-on to take the catch. He then does the thigh five, and also jumps on Rabada, who is now the fastest to 50 IPL wickets 109/3

    11.4 top of middle with a 139ks length ball. On-pace, on-seam. Watson is looking to give himself room and swing, but does so down the wrong line 87/2

    16.3 Dhoni takes Nortje on, and edges through. Seems like a slower ball, at 134ks (believe that), and Dhoni is early into the swing. He has skipped down the wicket, gets a meaty edge, and it just about carries through to the keeper 129/4

    0.2 Chahar has got him five times out of six. That is an ordinary shot. Outswinger just outside off, and he is looking to flick this to leg. The leading edge settles with Chahar. A second straight duck for Shaw 0/1

    4.1 Chahar has one more. Rahane's horror IPL continues. He shows the right intent, makes room, hits hard, but straight to Curran at point. Smart catch because it is hit hard, but it has come straight at him 26/2
    11.3 Iyer looks to take Barvo down as he bowls length and gives him pace to work with. Iyer backs himself to hit sixes down the ground, but the slowness of the pitch means he is early into it and the bat face closes a touch. Caught at long-on 94/3
    15.4 Thakur keeps coming at Stoinis. Goes even shorter this time. Stoinis is shuffling across to look to work this square on the leg side. Gets a massive top edge for a catch at midwicket 137/4
    18.1 low full toss, into the body, less room to swing his arms through it, and he holes out to wide long-on. If Pant gets fit, this might be the last we see of Carey this IPL 159/5
