    5.2 the leg stump's uprooted! Flatter ball on middle, and Lynn's halfway down the wicket. He misses the leg-side heave, and the ball goes between bat and pad. Crashes into leg stump and Jadeja's pumped! 51/2
    1.3 tossed up outside off, and that's been given a wild leg-side slog. Slices it, and the ball's in the air. Raina gets under it from mid off, and takes a comfortable catch from near his face. Big wicket! 19/1
    8.2 good length just outside off. It's punched to cover but there's a hesitation! Raina stops the ball, turns around, and throws it at the non-striker's. Uthappa's struggling, and he's well short when the zing bails come alive. KKR gift CSK a wicket. Karthik wanted the single, but Uthappa wasn't quite sure. Pays the price 81/4
    8.1 and gets a wicket first ball! Back of a length on middle, and Rana tries to drag this behind square on the leg side. He's through his shot early, and the ball takes a feather edge off his bat. It hits his thigh pad thereafter, and lobs up into the air. Enough time for Dhoni to run to his right and complete a soft dismissal 80/3
    17.4 yorker on leg stump, and Karthik misses the shot. Hits his back leg, and the appeal's been given out! He's reviewing but that's a futile decision. It hit his back leg, and impact was in front of leg stump. The replay shows that the ball would've clipped leg stump. KKR retain their review but the captain has to go 165/6
    9.6 fails again! Full on off, and he tries to drive this with the bat's open face. Off the bat's toe end, and pocketed by Bravo at point. He's dancing! 89/5

    5.5 pulled, but holes out! Curran strikes in his first over. Short again, and this time the pull isn't hit well enough. Rinku Singh was placed at cow corner after the earlier pull, and this time Watson finds the man. Big wicket for the visitors 75/1
    8.3 tossed up outside off, and that's been driven away from his body. Slices his shot slightly, and therefore plays it in the air. Soft dismissal in the deep, as Mavi (the substitute) takes a few steps in from deep extra cover and pockets the catch 85/2
    11.3 short on off stump, and Raina tries to pull over cow corner, but he's got no power behind that shot - presumably because of his leg injury. The ball's in the air for ages, and Vinay Kumar settles under it at long on. Another big wicket down 101/3
    16.3 Dhoni walks! Good length outside off, and the ball stays slightly low. Tries to cut square but the ball goes under his bat. Takes a feather edge, and DK collects like a boss! They don't even bother appealing since the CSK captain starts to walk. Fair-play points, please! 155/4
    18.4 holes out to long off! Full outside off, but slightly slower this time. Billings is through his shot too early, and that comes off the blade's toe end. Billings walks back but not before keeping CSK alive in this match 184/5
