Innings break. Wells and Weatherald finished it well but they needed to after taking their time. Ball made a mess of that last over. We shall see if 150 is enough.

Anubhav : "150 looking possible now. I reckon it could be a competitive score because Rashid Khan is a god"

Eye Gee : "This is equivalent to a 240-3 in 50 overs. Left plenty of runs on the table.."

Vinod Rajpal: "Last over 22 runs from Sixers would be the turning point of this match !!"
