300 | FOUR, lovely, this is even better, on a good length and just outside off, Singh presses forward, drives it on the up and splits the gap between cover and mid-off. Good early signs for batsman |
301 | out Bowled!! batsman has chopped on for the second straight time in this tournament. On a length and just outside off, batsman saw the width, manufactured a bit more by backing away slightly, went with hard hands on the cut, gets an inside edge that bounces back onto the middle-stump. He was looking very good, but it means nothing now. Another promising start, but nothing more for batsman. batsman b bowler 12(10) [4s-3] |
302 | SIX, beautifully played, what made the shot even more special was that he didn't get to the pitch of the ball. It only allowed him to free his arms and lift it inside out over cover, went sailing all the way |
303 | out Stumped!! bowler has deceived batsman completely in the air. Anticipated that batsman was getting itchy and was looking to dominate him, shortened his length and beats batsman in the air, the extra bounce did the trick. batsman was completely flummoxed on the lofted drive and Pant is quick to whip the bails off. team are in a spot of bother now. batsman st Pant b bowler 24(24) [4s-4] |
304 | FOUR, cracking shot, that should release some pressure off batsman, comes down the track, flat-bats the short of a length delivery and lifts it back over bowler's head, a few bounces and over the ropes |
305 | FOUR, back-to-back boundaries for batsman, makes room to a length delivery on the stumps and swipes it over the infield, clears cover-point and rolls away to the fence |
306 | FOUR, wow. That sped off the bat. Smith breaks the shackles, stands tall and extends his hands into fierce punch, right off the middle and pistols away to the fence beating the sweeper cover fielder |
307 | FOUR, edged and four! Would've been swallowed by the first slip fielder, if there was ever one. Lovely flight from Rashid, drew batsman forward and takes the outside edge which runs away through the invisible first slip region |
308 | FOUR, short ball and punished. Smith picks it up early and nails the pull in front of square |
309 | FOUR, two fours in a row for Smith. This was a poor ball from bowler, drifts one on the pads, all Smith had to do was to get some wood on it, which he did and it races away to the fine leg fence |
310 | no run, brilliant work from Henriques. A direct-hit would've been interesting. A fuller length delivery on the stumps, Smith pushes it meekly towards extra cover, Moises dives to his right and throws at the non-striker, all in one motion. DK was backing up for a single and had to turn back and dive full-length to make his ground |
311 | SIX, Smith is finding his bearings now. bowler errs in length and dishes out a full ball right in the hitting zone, Smith frees his arms and launches it straight down the ground, pings the sightscreen on the full |
312 | FOUR, that's an awful ball from bowler. Offers width, by bowling it well outside off, Smith goes deep in his crease and carves it over point. 50-run stand comes up between the two |
313 | out Caught by (sub)Vijay Shankar!! Kumar strikes! Half the team side are back in the hut now. Smith runs out of patience, decides to take on Bhuvi. It was a slower delivery and the West Indian didn't pick it. Was early into the shot and went through it, skews it off the toe-end and slices it towards deep mid-wicket. Vijay Shankar, the sub, runs to his left and pouched it safely. batsman c (sub)Vijay Shankar b bowler 37(27) [4s-4 6s-1] |
314 | no run, oh nearly.. A communication breakdown between both the batsmen almost resulted in a run-out. A short of length delivery outside off, batsman slashed it straight to point, Kulkarni set off for a single, DK was ball-watching and sends him back. Yuvi, the fielder, was slow to react and fires a throw at the non-strikers end, misses the target and Kulkarni survives |
315 | 1 run, wristed into the on-side, takes off for a quick single before being sent back. Rashid fires at the bowler's end and misses. The duo run on the overthrow. Karthik was in trouble had that hit |
316 | out Caught by Naman Ojha!! Two wickets in two overs and team are losing gas towards the end. A short ball from bowler, batsman went across his sticks and tried to lap/scoop it over short fine, doesn't succeed as he gets a faint nick and Ojha takes a simple catch. batsman c Naman Ojha b bowler 30(32) [4s-2] |
317 | out batsman Run Out!! Third umpire woken up for a run-out check. Kulkarni is struggling and has to take the long walk back to the pavilion. team are committing hara-kiri. Another one bites the dust. Kulkarni worked it towards mid-wicket and took off blindly for a single, his partner was never interested and sends him back. Rashid Khan, the fielder, swoops down on the ball, takes the aim and fires a direct-hit at the striker's end to catch Kulkarni short of his crease. Rashid Khan's dream day continues. batsman run out (Rashid Khan) 1(2) |
318 | 1 run, silly running from the team batsmen. Could've lost another one. A short of length delivery outside off, Kumar toe-ends the drive to extra cover, takes off for a single. The fielder collects the ball and fires a throw but misses the target. PK had given up |
319 | SIX, this will do. Sinks low, gets under this slower ball and tonks it over the long-on fence for a maximum |
320 | FOUR, lovely shot, fraction too short from Bipul , batsman is quick to rock back and pulls it through mid-wicket, no need to run for those |
321 | FOUR, back-to-back boundaries once again from batsman, comes down the track, covered for the spin and lifts it over the head of mid-on, a couple of bounces and over the ropes |
322 | FOUR, lovely shot, banged in short and on the stumps, it sat up to be smacked, batsman makes room and pulls it over mid-wicket, one bounce and over the ropes |
323 | out Lbw!! Rashid has struck gold in his first over! This was pushed through flatter and quicker, the wrong 'un from Rashid. McCullum was down on his knees as he went for the sweep and missed, struck pretty adjacent to the stumps and it's an easy call for the umpire. The impact was in front of middle, would have been going on and hitting the stumps. batsman lbw b bowler 5(10) |
324 | no run, edged and dropped, that was a chance and Warner at first slip has missed it. It was a tough opportunity though, batsman went with hard hands, the edge was flying and to the right of the captain, he went with hard hands and shells it. Coming to the ball, it was tossed up invitingly outside off, another wrong 'un from Rashid, lured batsman into the mistake - but batsman survives |
325 | out Caught by Dhawan!! Dhawan has claimed a catch. batsman isn't going anywhere. The third umpire will have a look, the soft call is OUT. He has caught it cleanly, but has the ball touched the ground or did Dhawan get his fingers underneath it? The zoomer has been called for, it looks tricky, but the soft signal is OUT. If there's no conclusive evidence, it will stay with the on-field call. The third umpire is taking numerous looks at it. B2$ is the call. team have lost two of their overseas batting stars now. Coming to the ball, it was banged short and just outside off, batsman was rocking back on the pull, went low of the bat and looped towards mid-wicket. The ball was dying in front of him, but Dhawan does well to dive forward and holds onto it. batsman c Dhawan b bowler 31(21) [4s-5] |
326 | out Lbw!! Rashid is leaving the Lions flummoxed. This was the wrong 'un, pitched just outside off and spun back into the right-hander, batsman didn't read it one bit, played for the straighter one, beaten on the inside edge and struck bang in front of middle. The height wasn't an issue, the ball would have been crashing into the leg-stump. Easy call for the umpire and Gujarat Lions slip into further trouble. batsman lbw b bowler 3(5) |
327 | FOUR, cracking shot, a floaty half-volley from bowler, batsman leans forward, closes the face of the bat and drives it back past the non-striker, no chance for the man at mid-off |
328 | out Lbw!! Rashid is running through Gujarat Lions. This was the leg-break and batsman had no idea about it. This was tossed up on the off-stump line and spun back in slightly, batsman didn't read it, was playing for the straighter one, gets beaten on the inside edge and is rapped on the pads. The impact was in front of middle, would have been going on and hitting the top of middle. Rashid is on a roll and so are his team. The umpire has called for a strategic break. batsman lbw b bowler 5(8) |
329 | FOUR, cracking shot, that should release some pressure off batsman, comes down the track, flat-bats the short of a length delivery and lifts it back over bowler's head, a few bounces and over the ropes |
330 | FOUR, back-to-back boundaries for batsman, makes room to a length delivery on the stumps and swipes it over the infield, clears cover-point and rolls away to the fence |
331 | FOUR, wow. That sped off the bat. Smith breaks the shackles, stands tall and extends his hands into fierce punch, right off the middle and pistols away to the fence beating the sweeper cover fielder |

The umpire has called for a strategic break. batsman lbw b bowler 5(8) |
354 | FOUR, errs in length and pays the price. Lynn is too good to not miss out on these. Takes a giant step forward, uses all his power to muscle it down the ground |
355 | FOUR, poor ball. Short and down leg, too easy for Lynn. Swivels across and helps it on its way past the man at 45 |
356 | FOUR, another edge. Pandey is living a struggle here in reading the amounts of turn. Not quite the control but ultimately manages to get some wood on it in directing the edge through the keeper |
357 | out Caught by Hardik Pandya!! Another dismissal all in the household. In fact it doesn't leave Baroda either. Pathan in his quest to get on with the scoring jumps down the track, barely gets close but cannot pull out of his hoick. Swings hard, miscues big time and Hardik at long-off stretches vertically in plucking it out. batsman c Hardik Pandya b bowler 6(11) |
358 | FOUR, so deft. The cheek these days. Shapes up for the cut, or so we assumed but at the very last moment opens the bat upwards in a dab past the outstretched Parthiv leg |
359 | SIX, this was coming. With bowler keeping it short and wide and Pandey's orthodox cuts failing, he decides to arch back with a toe-rise and ramps his bat upwards in teasing the man at third man over the ropes |
360 | FOUR, just the hint of width. Enough for Yadav to sniff a boundary out of it. Throws the kitchen sink at it with a crack through the off-side |
361 | FOUR, the width is back. And so is the allied length that starts off from half way down. A wristy chop quite off the outside half of the bat. Hurries away through third man |
362 | SIX, oh boy. Smoked one down. For a change he stays put in his crease without moving around and bends low in plundering what should have been a yorker. A vicious bat swing in tonking it into the black screen |
363 | FOUR, and now he toys around further. bowler responds with a length delivery outside off and Pandey after threatening to muscle another one out, stays composed and guides it behind point |
364 | out Caught by Pollard!! The sucker ball. On the umpteenth occasion a set batsman perishes after the team passes on a strategy in the break. Can't blame Yadav for anticipating the toe-crushing yorker. He gets one just that there is no pace at all on this one. Swings through his shot, gets one hand off the handle and eventually watches the ball pick out Pollard to perfection at long-on. batsman c Pollard b bowler 17(15) [4s-2] |
365 | 1 run, here's his half-ton. Playing a vital hand here. Gets there with a flat batted agricultural heave. Then watches all his effort neutralized by the ball finding deep mid-wicket on the bounce |
366 | out Caught by Pollard!! The wheels falling off here. Looks for his favoured flat batted pull through cow corner. Does get it right but neither manages the elevation nor does he keep it down. Yet another batsman picks out Pollard at the fence. The ploy of keeping it short and slow doing the trick out here. batsman c Pollard b bowler 9(8) |
367 | SIX, a sink, a swing and a crowd deposit. Picks out the predictable off-spinner and waits for the ball to get into his arc. Unleashes a full bat swing and goes through with it in holding the pose as he drills one several rows into the cow corner stands |
368 | SIX, the sitting up length. Right where he wanted to and with all the pace on it as well for it to be dealt with severity. A full-blooded pull and just the sound ensures the maximum |
369 | SIX, misses the mark yet again. A yorker attempted only to be missed by a cool few centimeters. Ample time for Pandey to settle himself under it as he hammers it over long-on. Just cannot keep it down |
370 | no ball, FOUR, he oversteps and then bowls it in the arc as well. More of the sunken bat swings in intercepting the two men at the leg-side fence. Pandey with help here from the bowler giving team the final catapult. Free hit coming up |
371 | FOUR, a full toss now. Nothing coming out right here. Tailing away and Pandey is more than glad to use the width in just tickling it past the keeper |
372 | FOUR, offers some width to batsman, who will not miss out on these. Reaches out and bullies it with serene timing through cover |
373 | FOUR, yes he can! bowler is not learning, doles out a friendly full toss on off, batsman opens the bat face and slices it behind point |
374 | out Lbw!! Dead straight. Just that it goes onto the pad after smashing the bat. A yorker on the stumps, quite where he should have been right from the start. batsman tries hard in getting his bat down in digging it out. Almost does well in the end, gets right off the toe-end to ricochet onto his boot. Too quick for the umpire to spot it as well. Never mind. team finish with 178. batsman lbw b bowler 1(2) |
375 | FOUR, two in a row for batsman. This was streaky but the team captain won't mind. Pitched up full outside off, batsman went hard on the drive, gets an outside edge that races away to the third man fence. The fielder was squarer and had no chance |
376 | SIX, there he goes! Loads up big, gets under this short ball and dismisses it into the deep mid-wicket stands. Into the top-tier |
377 | out Caught by McClenaghan!! batsman combusts. The ploy of bringing in a spinner early in the innings has paid rich dividends for Mumbai. batsman, in an attempt to go big, miscues one and hits it straight to square leg. McClenaghan times his jump to perfection, leaps and takes a smart catch. Pandya exults in delight.batsman c McClenaghan b bowler 19(13) [4s-3] |
378 | FOUR, this was quite intentional from Robbie. Plants his front foot forward, looking to defend. The ball came in with the angle, takes the outer half of his willow and runs away to the third man fence |
379 | out Caught by Hardik Pandya!! Two wickets in the over. batsman falls cheaply. This was floated up much fuller from KP, tempting batsman to go for the big shot. The Karnataka batsman went after it, albeit didn't find the sweet spot in his willow. Skies it as far as deep mid-wicket, where his brother Hardik swallows it up with ease. Pandya roars in joy and sprints up to his brother and leaps onto him. What a start for Mumbai. batsman c Hardik Pandya b bowler 4(3) [4s-1] |
380 | FOUR, oh boy! bowler has been Lynn-ed here. If there is ever a term like that. Just stands still, unleashes a strong bottom-hand to slap it through extra cover. Bulleted away to the fence |
381 | out Lbw!! Boom! bowler strikes. Its the dangerous Lynn who has to walk back to the hut. The crowd find their voices back. Lynn makes a blunder by walking across his sticks, bowler kept it simple, bowled full and raps him low on the pad. Was beaten for pace and was struck right in front of middle. Lynn is disappointed. Big wicket for the home team. batsman lbw b bowler 32(24) [4s-3 6s-1] |
382 | FOUR, poor delivery from bowler to follow-up. Short, wide and Parthiv is right on top of it, cracks the cut behind square and third man was only picking it up from the rope. team are off and running |
383 | FOUR, inswinger which is slightly off target and batsman puts it away with ease. Full and swinging into the pads, flicked through mid-wicket to open his account. Not a muscle moved |
384 | FOUR, this time Krunal is in position much quicker, the line is different too - more around off and middle - and he's able to muscle the pull away through mid-wicket |
385 | FOUR, consecutive fours to finish the over. team desperately need some momentum here. I think bowler is getting a bit carried away. Bowls it full on the pads and Krunal whips him over mid-wicket |
386 | FOUR, a little bit of air from Kuldeep, Rana quickly bends his knees and swipes it to the wide long-on boundary. The length was a bit too full from Kuldeep there |
387 | SIX, oh what a shot! 23 off the last two overs now. A good little burst from these two. Kuldeep still flights the ball up, the line is outside off and Rana goes through the line to cream it beautifully over extra-cover. What timing on that. Way into the stands |
388 | out Caught by Uthappa!! bowler has strangled him down leg. What a lucky breakthrough to end a fledgling partnership. Back of a length on leg-stump, Krunal tries to help it along into the fine leg boundary but the deflection is only a small one. A faint little tickle off the inside edge straight to the keeper. batsman c Uthappa b bowler 11(6) [4s-2] |
389 | SIX, all the way. If you're going short to batsman, it better be nice and high. This one sits up around his chest and he dismisses it from his presence over the mid-wicket boundary |
390 | no run, uh oh! A bad mix-up there with batsman being sent back from the middle of the pitch. But he makes it home. The throw isn't a great one from Pathan either. Rana called him initially but then backtracked as batsman steered it to point. These are nervy times |
391 | FOUR, bowler bowls short first up to surprise him, but batsman is quickly into position. He's able to swivel outside the line of the ball which is on leg-stump and helps the pull to the fine leg boundary. It's rocketed through |
392 | out Caught by (sub)Rishi Dhawan!! What a huge wicket right after the break. The major threat of batsman is gone, and team will really back themselves now to seal this. Not sure if this was the plan, or bowler just executed it incorrectly. He bowls it short and wide, batsman throws his bat at and the top-edge flies down for a comfortable catch to third man. Massive moment. batsman c (sub)Rishi Dhawan b bowler 17(17) [4s-1 6s-1] |
393 | FOUR, moves away from the line of the short of length off-cutter, creates some room and flays it away over extra-cover. Rana keeping Mumbai afloat |
394 | 1 run, bowler botches a run-out opportunity! He just had to collect the ball cleanly. Rana was well short. Rana couldn't find any elevation as he tried to flat-bat the back of length delivery and he hit it straight to mid-off. Never a run there, but the non-striker had come a long way down so Rana obliged. Would have been gone |
395 | FOUR, that's been absolutely spanked through extra-cover. The ball has left a vapour trail. Short and wide from bowler, Pandya smokes it while backing away |
396 | FOUR, brilliant timing! Low full toss wide of off, Rana reaches out and slices it past backward point. It skimmed off the bat |
397 | SIX, 10 off 2 balls. This game isn't over yet. Not while Rana is there. bowler is struggling to execute the yorker. He delivered a low full toss last ball, now a proper full toss at the stumps. Rana picks it away effortless over long leg |
398 | SIX, length from bowler and it disappears way back over mid-wicket. The team dugout is on its feet. What a blow from Pandya. But this is ordinary death bowling. Seam-up and good length, right there in the slot |
399 | SIX, lapped over the keeper for six! Thrilling stuff. Rana has stooped across and picked this full toss from middle-stump. It came right off the middle |
