- BATSMENRB4s6sSR2.4 appeal for caught behind! But not given. Williamson reviews straightaway. Sunrisers look convinced. It was a good length ball outside off, and jagging just into Uthappa. He tried to run it fine, but the ball took the outside edge. UltraEdge shows a big spike, and the umpire has to reverse his decision 16/112.2 falls for 49! Good length on middle, and Lynn punches this too soon. The ball stuck up after pitching, forcing the error from Lynn, and Shakib dives to his left to take a one-handed stunner 87/47.4 Pandey takes a screamer! Stanlake celebrates but the wicket's all Pandey's. Cuts this ball super hard, but Pandey - at point - dives to his right and sticks both hands out. The ball popped out of his hand, but managed to take the catch eventually as Pandey returned back to Earth. Excellent! 55/210.4 KW to the rescue! Good length outside off, and the arm ball does the trick. Narine swings through the line of the ball, but not off the meat of the bat. In the air for ages, and Williamson runs back from midwicket to complete the catch 79/318.3 edged! Full outside off, and Karthik's drive away from his body takes the outside edge. Pocketed by Saha moving to his right 129/713.2 Poor from Russell. Full outside off, and Dre Russ slaps this over point once again. Slices it this time, and Pandey - at point - runs towards the boundary to complete an excellent diving catch! Slides across the ground after pocketing that. Pandey's been electric today 96/516.4 soft dismissal! Good length outside off, and swinging away from Gill. He tries to muscle this over the infield, but takes the top edge. Shakib - at cover - takes a few steps back and completes the catch from near his face. Bhuvi's knuckleball earns him a wicket 112/619.6 overpitched, but wide outside off. Too far for Mavi, but he manages to stick his bat out. Takes the toe end, and top-edges it behind the keeper. Bhuvneshwar and Stanlake both try to take the catch, and the Indian gets there first. Does well to ensure he doesn't crash into big Billy S.

- BATSMENRB4s6sSR3.1 out first ball! Full on leg, and spinning further away from Saha. Tries to flick it fine, but takes a feather edge off his bat. Excellent take from DK and that's got Narine grinning! 32/15.1 the zing bails have lit up! Overpitched on leg stump, and almost a yorker from Narine. Dhawan tries to defend but the ball sneaks under his bat. Hits his back leg, and then crashes into the base of off stump. Sunrisers lose their openers 46/217.2 full on leg stump, and KW clips it off his pads, but straight to Russell at square leg. Soft dismissal! Big groan from Williamson as he sees Russell complete the catch 119/58.4 slow finger of death! Full on leg stump, and Pandey defends it down the wrong line. He tried to play in front of middle stump, but the ball didn't spin at all. Hits his front leg, and the umpire agrees to Kuldeep's appeal. The former KKR player has to go back. Time out as well 55/315.5 breaks leg stump! Good length on leg, but Shakib's caught in two minds. Chooses to defend eventually, but the ball sneaks through between bat and pad. This game's not over yet, folks! But for now...it's the time out 114/4Extras5 (w 5)TOTAL139/5 (19 Overs, RR: 7.31)Fall of wickets: 1-32 (Wriddhiman Saha, 3.1 ov), 2-46 (Shikhar Dhawan, 5.1 ov), 3-55 (Manish Pandey, 8.4 ov), 4-114 (Shakib Al Hasan, 15.5 ov), 5-119 (Kane Williamson, 17.2 ov)
