- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR1.6 dragged straight to mid-on! Length ball outside off, steps out and wants to slap it on the rise over that fielder. It sticks in the pitch and comes off the inside half and floats gently out to Henriques 7/117.3 whipped straight to deep square. Low full toss at middle stump, gets low and whips this flat. There was a decent gap between deep square and fine leg, but he can't find it. A good knock from Rohit after the early struggles, but Punjab have stated this death overs phase very nicely. A sharp catch from Allen too, high to his right 112/46.6 caught behind! Doesn't even wait for the umpire's decision. Kishan's horror form continues. This is a short of a length slider across off stump. He looks to cut and gets a thin edge, Rahul holds on well. Bishnoi strikes in his first over of the season 26/216.1 taken at short third! Legbreak, full and outside off. SKY switches up and looks to swing this reverse sweep over backward point. Gets a top edge and it hands up nicely for Gayle 105/318.4 full and just outside off, might have been a slower ball. Hardik lines it up and looks to loft this over long-off. Difficult on this surface. Picks out Hooda 122/519.5 oh superb work from Pooran at sweeper cover! Slower ball, short and turning away outside off. Backs away and cuts aerially. Pooran tracks it to his left, keeps his eyes on it, and dives with the perfect timing to grab it before tumbling softly in his landing to keep it 130/6Extras6 (b 4, w 2)TOTAL131/6 (20 Overs, RR: 6.55)Fall of wickets: 1-7 (Quinton de Kock, 1.6 ov), 2-26 (Ishan Kishan, 6.6 ov), 3-105 (Suryakumar Yadav, 16.1 ov), 4-112 (Rohit Sharma, 17.3 ov), 5-122 (Hardik Pandya, 18.4 ov), 6-130 (Krunal Pandya, 19.5 ov)
