Ravi: "Now the score is in LSG's territory to defend this like they always do."

Ayush Badoni: "I enjoyed well. From the last three innings, my performance wasn't coming... Feel really blessed. I wanted to take it deep. Earlier I wanted to score from the first ball. Arshad played a great supportive role; I was thankful that he helped play till the last, and I'm grateful he helped us cross 160. Hopefully it works this time also [in defending 160-plus]."

9.24pm LSG post 167, but only after putting up the highest eighth-wicket stand in the history of the IPL. A heroic knock from Badoni, who finishes on 55* from 35 balls, and an extremely crucial contribution of 20* from Arshad helps LSG to 73 runs after they were 94 for 7 at one stage. Until then, it was all about Kuldeep, who returned from injury to bag 3 for 20, including sending Pooran, LSG's best batter, for a first-ball duck. Join Shashank for the chase soon.

Lunch: "Wow, when Sam wrote in saying LSG getting to 150-160 would make things interesting, I didn't think it would be very likely to see. Now LSG is comfortably exceeding that. Gotta love the twists and turns. Great knock, Badoni"
