    4.1 That's a blinder from Smeed! Half-tracker just outside off and he plays it uppishly as Smeed dives forward and gobbles it up. King departs early in the piece 34/2
    0.3 Edged and taken! That's a scorhing delivery in the channel, nibbling away, taking the outside edge and Lewis goes without troubling the scorers. Perfect start for MI Emirates. 1/1
    15.4 Change-up delivery flummoxes Dhananjaya! No pace on offer and he threw the kitchen sink at it, gets the height but not the distance. Fletcher, who has been excellent in the field, rushes to his left and catches it superbly. He has played a gem of an innings but Riders would have dearly liked him to continue 130/6
    7.1 Length ball tailing into leg stump, flicked to deep midwicket region, Waseem pings a sharp throw and Reifer is caught napping on the crease, needless wicket, it was very casual from Reifer 48/3
    11.5 Harmless delivery and it goes straight down Bravo's throat at deep square! Gets the elevation but no the distance and there was a lot of pace to work with. That's a timely scalp for MI 93/4
    13.5 Throws it away! Bat turned in his hands as he tried to slug this over midwicket but finds Fletcher in the deep who didn't have to move a muscle, pouches it safely as Farooqi gets the big fish 110/5

    16.3 Leg-cutter on off, plays a cheeky shot as he tried to scoop this over fine leg but he doesn't get the timing and it goes straight into the hands of Bravo 136/7

    4.4 Spoons at short cover! Slightly shorter this time, spins a touch and he got stuck on the crease, no timing at all and Hosein gets the danger man! Asalanka makes amends for the fumble earlier 27/2
    1.6 Sprawling catch at mid-off as he opens his stance, but can't get it away properly, Narine didn't have to move a muscle to swallow it 8/1
    13.2 Shout for an lbw! It looked high, another snorter on a length, jags back viciously off the surface and raps on the pad. They have taken the review. Ultra edge shows there is no bat involved, waiting for the ball tracker, pitching outside off, impact in line and wickets hitting so that turns out to be a terrific review and they get the prized scalp of Fletcher. Massive moment in the game! 98/4
    10.3 Capitulated to short pitch bowling! Tried to seize on this short ball, leans back and goes for the pull but finds Asalanka at deep square, that's a massive wicket for Knight Riders! 82/3
    18.1 Tossed up on a length on off, he slinks back and miscues a skier towards deep midwicket! Didn't connect so well as Reier takes a superb catch under pressure. Super stuff. This wicket totally changes the complexion of the game 142/5
