    2.3 Big appeal from Cummins and Kishan for the caught behind and the umpire agrees. Samson isn't sure and reviews. I think I heard a noise. Let's see. On a length just outside off, nibbling away from Samson, who pushes at it and, yep, there is a clear spike on the UltraEdge when ball is next to bat. Cummins' Test match length does it for SRH and Samson departs for a quick 27. There was a fairly big nick and deflection, so it was a weird review from Samson 31/1
    11.3 got him!! Gaikwad's struggle ends. Cummins is turning it around. Finally Gaikwad went for a big shot, but couldn't execute. Cummins bowls it short at this counterpart, and has him pulling from around middle stump. Gaikwad pulled with a full flourish, but found the man at deep square leg 100/4
    4.3 The off stump is knocked back and Urvil is out of here. A third slower ball in a row does the trick. Slower offcutter at 116.7kph that lands back of a length outside off and turns into Urvil. He is through his pull way too early, misses and sees his offpole pegged back 48/2
    9.4 Straight down sweeper cover's throat. Cummins has another and SRH have the dangerman in Kartik Sharma. Slower back of a length ball at 117kph outside off. Kartik had the room but not the pace to work with. He cuts up and over, trying to clear the fence on the offside. He can only swipe it as far as Reddy who takes a smart catch running to his right 90/3

    17.5 bowled him!! Chepauk is stunned. Another one launched at 141kph, and this time Brevis falls. The ball swings in, and lands on a back of a length around off. Brevis goes for the pull, but seemed to have played early, as the ball went below his bat 159/5
    18.3 the ball keeps low, and he's bowled. Sakib can't stop smiling. Dube looks frustrated. Sakib hits the top of middle stump after going for a short-of-a-length ball on leg. It was a slower one too, and it didn't bounce as much as Dube would've liked. He went for the pull, but was beaten by the lack of pace and bounce 164/6

    19.6 taken by Hinge!! He turned around, and went forward to end behind the stumps. It was a good catch, with the ball dropping from over his head. It was a short ball from Hinge, and another slower ball. Veer went pulling, but mistimed it. There was no distance on that, he fell off the last ball 180/7

    7.4 Straight down deep backward square leg's throat. Left-armer gets left-hander. And out comes Akeal's mask celebration. Darted down leg, was a nothing ball really. Abhishek sweeps and thinks he has got enough power to clear Johnson. But these are big boundaries and Johnson, right on the line takes a comfortable catch. A very un-Abhishek innings comes to an end 56/2
    2.3 Straight up and swallowed by Mukesh! Oh, CSK needed that early and Mukesh Starc Choudhary has landed the first blow. Sharp 142.4kph back of a length ball outside off. Head wants to go for a pull, but has to fetch that from way outside off. He only manages a cue-end straight up and Mukesh does the rest. A skip and fist pump from the bowler. 18/1
    18.3 ohhhh, Kishan falls!! He's taken at long-off while looking to go for a big hit. He reached out for this fullish delivery arriving wide of off, and couldn't put it away while the bottom hand came off his bat. He departs for 70, having almost taken SRH home 175/5
    14.3 Samson is thrilled!! Has he really managed to stump Klaasen here?! We'll wait for the final decision, which will come from the third umpire. Noor angled it across, and went on a fullish length on off. The ball turned away a bit, and Klaasen was beaten on the outside edge as he looked to loft. There's no bat involved there, as confirmed by UltraEdge. Ohh, look at that!! Klaasen's back leg is barely in the air when Samson whips the bails off - almost as instantly as the man watching from the dressing room. This could open the doors for a comeback from CSK 131/3
    17.1 wowww, that seemed to be heading for six!! But Urvil at long-off moved to his right, and grabbed the ball well ahead of the boundary. Choudhary angled the ball across, and bowled on a hittable length wide of off. Reddy went through the line, but got the ball off the bottom of the bat. A wicket and a dot for CSK 153/4
