Ajinkya Rahane (C) c Mohammad Shami b Digvesh Singh 41 24 4 2 170.83

10.2

Digvesh Singh to Ajinkya Rahane, OUT! CAUGHT! Digvesh Singh gets the crucial breakthrough on his return to the attack. Not a wicket-taking delivery as he drops it short, outside off. Ajinkya Rahane tries to fetch it from there and pulls it. He seems to have mistimed it and hits it straight to mid-wicket, where the ball dips low on the fielder. Mohammad Shami gets low and takes a fine catch just inches above the ground. He signals out, but the umpires want to be sure this time. After watching different angles, the third umpire is satisfied that Shami's fingers are underneath the ball. Good hand from KKR's skipper comes to an end now.

Finn Allen c Digvesh Singh b Prince Yadav 9 8 2 0 112.5

1.4

Prince Yadav to Finn Allen, OUT! TAKEN! Prince Yadav gets his man and this is a big wicket for LSG. He hits the length hard and keeps the line just outside off. Finn Allen tries to fetch it and heave it across the line, but the ball just bounces a bit more and shapes away. It takes the top edge and goes miles up in the air towards deep third. Digvesh Singh backpedals, first misjudges but recovers nicely. Settles under the skier, and takes a fantastic catch, also keeping his foot just inside the line. Kolkata Knight Riders are 15/1 after 1.4 overs.

Angkrish Raghuvanshi (W) c Aiden Markram b Manimaran Siddharth 45 33 5 2 136.36

11.4

Manimaran Siddharth to Angkrish Raghuvanshi, OUT! TAKEN! Two wickets in two overs for LSG, and both the set batters are gone now. Manimaran Siddharth sees the batter advance and fires in an arm ball, full and on middle and leg. Angkrish Raghuvanshi is out of his crease and gets a bit too close to the ball. He does not have enough room to free his arms and mistimes the lofted shot down to long on. Aiden Markram moves a bit to his right and takes a good catch around his waist. A fantastic knock comes to an end for Raghuvanshi.

Cameron Green not out 32 24 3 1 133.33

Rinku Singh b Avesh Khan 4 7 0 0 57.14

13.2

Avesh Khan to Rinku Singh, OUT! BOWLED 'EM! Avesh Khan vents out a roar as he cleans up Rinku Singh here. Avesh bowls this from around the wicket, lands this on a hard length and just on off, straightens a bit after hitting the deck. Rinku stays back in his crease and looks to run it down to third man, but the ball sneaks past the outside edge and hits the top of the off pole. A dream sight for any fast bowler in the world. KKR have lost the plot completely in the last few overs.

Mitchell Marsh c Angkrish Raghuvanshi b Vaibhav Arora 15 11 1 1 136.36

4.3

Vaibhav Arora to Mitchell Marsh, OUT! CAUGHT BEHIND! Both the LSG openers are gone now. Arora makes a huge impact with a double blow. Not the best of balls he has bowled. It is dug in short and angled down leg. Mitchell Marsh goes for the pull shot, but the ball slightly gets big on him and he only manages to glove it behind to Angkrish Raghuvanshi who takes a regulation catch. Joyous faces in the KKR camp and understandably so. LSG are 42/2, needing 140 runs from 93 balls.

Aiden Markram c Rovman Powell b Vaibhav Arora 22 15 2 1 146.67

4.1

Vaibhav Arora to Aiden Markram, OUT! CAUGHT IN THE DEEP! Arora, with the first breakthrough for KKR, is all pumped up. Short and sharp outside off, and Markram is onto the pull in a flash. But the ball climbs on him a touch more than he expects, cramping him for space at the moment of contact. He cannot find the power to sail it over the ropes and it balloons straight to deep mid-wicket, where Rovman Powell takes an absolute dolly. Lucknow Super Giants are 41/1, chasing 182.

Rishabh Pant (C) (W) c Kartik Tyagi b Cameron Green 10 9 1 0 111.11

8.2

Cameron Green to Rishabh Pant, OUT! TAKEN! Cameron Green comes in and gets a huge wicket of Rishabh Pant. This is why KKR were desperately waiting for him to finally be able to bowl. He bangs this hard into the pitch, on middle, and gets some extra bounce due to his height. Pant goes for the pull shot but the ball gets big on him and he fails to control the shot. It takes the top edge and flies wide of short fine, where Kartik Tyagi moves to his right and takes a good running catch. A body blow to LSG as their famed top three are now back in the hut.

Ayush Badoni c Rinku Singh b Anukul Roy 54 34 7 2 158.82

14.4

Anukul Roy to Ayush Badoni, OUT! FIFTY AND OUT FOR BADONI! Wicket number 2 for Anukul Roy and the most important one in the game's context. Length ball outside off, and Badoni gets forward but has to stretch for it a bit extra. He goes inside-out over extra cover, but the bottom hand slips off the handle at the moment of impact. The ball loops in the air, and Rinku runs to his left from long off and settles under it without fuss. He is not dropping those at all. Lucknow Super Giants are 125/6, needing 57 runs from 32 balls.

Nicholas Pooran c Ramandeep Singh b Kartik Tyagi 13 15 0 1 86.67

11.4

Kartik Tyagi to Nicholas Pooran, OUT! MISTIMED AND TAKEN! Once again, the short ball does the trick. Kartik runs his fingers across the leather and takes pace off by banging it short, on off. Nicholas Pooran shapes up to crash it into the stands over mid-wicket, but gets no timing whatsoever. The ball climbs on him and he only manages to top-edge it towards long on. Ramandeep Singh runs backwards and takes a simple catch at the edge of the ring to send Pooran packing. Lucknow Super Giants are 95/4 and it's getting interesting now. KKR right back in the game.

Abdul Samad b Anukul Roy 2 4 0 0 50

12.5

Anukul Roy to Abdul Samad, OUT! BOWLED! It is spiralling down badly for the Super Giants now. Tossed up full, on middle and off, and Samad's eyes light up. He goes for the big slog across the line, but the ball does just enough to slide in with the angle and catch him half-forward. He misses it completely and the ball brushes his back leg before crashing into the stumps. 73/2 becomes 104/5 for LSG, and they need 78 runs to win from 43 balls.

Mukul Choudhary not out 54 27 2 7 200

Mohammad Shami c Anukul Roy b Sunil Narine 1 3 0 0 33.33

15.6

Sunil Narine to Mohammad Shami, OUT! TAKEN! Sunil Narine finishes an incredible spell of bowling with a wicket. 200 T20 scalps in India for Narine, he is the first overseas bowler to achieve this feat. The West Indian reaches that milestone with a delivery that's floated up, full and on middle, turning it in. Mohammad Shami looks to slog it with the spin but gets it more from the inside half of the bat. It flies straight towards deep square leg, where Anukul Roy takes a good catch around his waist. Narine punches the air in delight. You don't often see him showing his emotions. LSG are 128/7, needing 54 runs from 24 balls.
