Thanks, Monga. LSG's last win was on April 28 against RCB and they would be keen to get back to winning ways today. Will SRH spin their way to victory? We'll find out soon.
5.22pm That's me done for the commentary. Srinidhi Ramanujam will be there during the second innings.
5.20pm Heinrich Klaasen says, and this is not verbatim: The wicket changed quickly in the middle. There was decent bit of spin and good bounce. It is starting to turn a little bit. It is difficult to hit hard lengths bowled into the wicket. Slower balls into the wicket will have natural variation. Not a bad wicket but we can use variations off the wicket. I would like to think the Impact Player will be a spinner. If the spinners can bowl quickly into the wicket, the natural variations will come in. Disappointed with the crowd. That's not what you want from a crowd. It broke a lot of momentum. Hopefully the umpires stay consistent. Not great umpiring.
5.17pm It is an interesting pitch. It is not really slow, but there is turn to be had as Krunal Pandya showed in those two deliveries. So 182 is not a bad score. It might just be par here.
Seems like foreign objects made their way to the dugout following that no-ball reversal, which is why the LSG dugout was not happy and the play was stopped
Thakur will bowl the last over

Seems order has been restored. Avesh has moved over the wicket
Some argy bargy going on. The LSG dugout is also getting involved. Andy Flower of all people. Think it might be a crowd issue. The umpires have moved towards the LSG dugout.
Around the wicket to Samad too
Over the wicket to Samad. Same plans. Bowl wide to him
Avesh now. Only his second over today. He is also bowling around the wicket to Klaasen
