- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR3.4 Uthappa skies it to a tumbling KW at backward point. Uthappa perhaps showed his ace early. He stepped out. Sran cleverly pulled his length back and sent down a cutter, leaves the right hander, clocked at 119ks. It sticks in the pitch. The batsman swings and toe-ends it. A bright start squandered 33/17.3 Gambhir threw his head back as soon as he chipped it. Third soft dismissal in a row. Slower through the air and spins away slightly. Gambhir steps out and away, aiming to play an inside-out drive over extra cover. He ends up holing out to long-off. Dolly catch for Henriques 57/35.6 Hooda sends Munro back. Munro shaped for a slog sweep. Hooda held it back outside off and found grip. Another skier. Another toe-end. The keeper settles under this. Sunrisers end the Powerplay on a positive note 48/215.4 KW tumbles and takes it at backward point. Pandey is distraught. Low full toss outside off, Pandey reaches out and only carves it in the air as his bottom hand flies off the bat. Not timed at all. KW dives to his right and completes a smart overhead catch before tumbling over 144/416.4 Holder lobs this full toss into the hands of short extra cover. Is it over the waistline? Holder is waiting. Fizz is okay. Well below the waist. Holder has to go. Full toss on middle, Holder swings but can't get under it. He picks out Henriques who takes it around head height 153/519.1 offcutter outside off, puff of dust from the cracked surface. Shakib aims to slog across the line. He is early in doing so. Skews it. Ojha collects another skier 164/6Extras4 (lb 1, w 3)TOTAL171/6 (20 Overs, RR: 8.55)Fall of wickets: 1-33 (Robin Uthappa, 3.4 ov), 2-48 (Colin Munro, 5.6 ov), 3-57 (Gautam Gambhir, 7.3 ov), 4-144 (Manish Pandey, 15.4 ov), 5-153 (Jason Holder, 16.4 ov), 6-164 (Shakib Al Hasan, 19.1 ov)

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR11.3 Kuldeep dissmisses Dhawan. The pressure of the asking rate got to him. Slides full outside off, Dhawan goes low and sweeps it in the air to Munro at deep midwicket 86/23.3 Warner stepped away outside leg, and looked to reverse sweep. Narine pushes it through fuller and finds a hint of turn. Warner checks his shot and misses. Narine hits the leg stump. Big blow for Sunrisers 28/112.1 Uthappa calls for it and takes down his opposite number. Two wickets in five balls. Tosses an offbreak on off, Ojha aims for a sweep and top-edges it behind 92/314.3 pushed too full on the leg stump, not much turn, Yuvraj swings. He got elevation but not the desired distance. Sathish, the sub fielder, pouches it. Shakib roars 110/415.4 KW falls as well. Short and spinning into the leg stump. It kept low and KW went low with it. He pulls and miscues it to Surya at deep backward square leg 117/615.1 Big communication breakdown on the second. KW did not even move out of the crease after the first run. Hooda initiallymoved around in the crease, this was a half-tracker outside leg. Hooda, having gone deep in the crease, pulls towards deep midwicket. He rushes off for the second, despite KW putting his hand up and saying no. Hooda is more than halfway down the pitch, more closer to KW than to the bowler's end. The throw is to that end. Gone! 115/517.6 Henriques uses his feet. Narine dangles an offbreak. The batsman swings wildly and misses. Narine hits the leg stump and caps his spell with a wicket 136/719.1 full on middle, Bhuvneshwar can't get under it. He has a big whoosh at it and picks out Sathish at long-off 144/8Extras11 (b 1, lb 6, nb 1, w 3)TOTAL149/8 (20 Overs, RR: 7.45)Did not bat: Mustafizur RahmanFall of wickets: 1-28 (David Warner, 3.3 ov), 2-86 (Shikhar Dhawan, 11.3 ov), 3-92 (Naman Ojha, 12.1 ov), 4-110 (Yuvraj Singh, 14.3 ov), 5-115 (Deepak Hooda, 15.1 ov), 6-117 (Kane Williamson, 15.4 ov), 7-136 (Moises Henriques, 17.6 ov), 8-144 (Bhuvneshwar Kumar, 19.1 ov)
