- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR15.1 Gony gets another. Pujara charges at him and swipes across the line, dragging this wide length ball onto his stumps 133/211.2 Gony comes back. Gayle plays across the line for a change. Gony has bowled straight and short of a length. Gayle misses, and the top of the middle stump is hit. Euphoria all around 102/116.5 that's a good ball. Dug in short, catches Kohli on the front foot, and it is between the chest and shoulder, which is a good height for a man on the front foot. Kohli goes ahead with the pull, Marsh runs back from midwicket and takes this over his shoulder 144/3Extras10 (lb 5, nb 1, w 4)TOTAL190/3 (20 Overs, RR: 9.5)Fall of wickets: 1-102 (Chris Gayle, 11.2 ov), 2-133 (Cheteshwar Pujara, 15.1 ov), 3-144 (Virat Kohli, 16.5 ov)

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR4.2 Vinay makes a good comeback. Down the wicket comes Mandeep, short goes Vinay, it seams in to cramp his shot, and takes the bottom edge through to the keeper 25/22.3 the big wicket. Te frustrated Marsh drives uppishly at a length ball, and finds extra cover perfectly 13/17.4 sweeps right across a straight delivery, misses, and is caught dead plumb 51/39.5 holes out to long-on. This chase was always stillborn. Hussey is under pressure to score quickly, and he backs away to try to hit this over long-on. Not full enough, he gets too under it, and is gone 64/4Extras11 (b 4, lb 2, nb 1, w 4)TOTAL194/4 (18 Overs, RR: 10.77)Fall of wickets: 1-13 (Shaun Marsh, 2.3 ov), 2-25 (Mandeep Singh, 4.2 ov), 3-51 (Gurkeerat Singh Mann, 7.4 ov), 4-64 (David Hussey, 9.5 ov)
