500 | SIX, mistimed but six, batsman just got enough to clear the leaping Billings at wide mid-wicket, got underneath the length delivery, gets plenty of height and just about enough distance |
501 | SIX, back-to-back sixes for batsman, Cummins shortened his length outside off, batsman backs away, makes room and slaps it over cover. The timing is good and the ball sails over the ropes for another maximum |
502 | out Caught by Chris Morris!! Another wicket for bowler, he's having a better night. This was a floaty leg-break, went wider of off. Bhatia had to fetch that as he played the slog-sweep, went off the toe of the bat and it's a simple catch to Morris at long-on. Bhatia has a look at his bat and walks away. bowler is on a hat-trick now. batsman c Chris Morris b bowler 16(17) [6s-1] |
503 | FOUR, lovely shot, bowler tosses one wider of off, batsman gets a big stride forward and drills it through extra-cover, beats the man getting across to his left from long-off |
504 | out Caught by Pant!! Third wicket for Khan, he's having a ball tonight. Saw batsman giving him the charge, banged it short and on the stumps, batsman swung across in hope, gets a thick top-edge - simple catch to Pant. bowler has a few words to say as batsman walks away. The end is nigh for Pune. batsman c Pant b bowler 14(6) [6s-2] |
505 | no run, has Karun plucked a one-handed stunner? The third umpire is called for, the soft call is OUT. Looked like a good catch on first view. Has the ball touched the ground, has he got his fingers underneath? The third umpire is having a look at different angles, this will be a tricky call. NOT OUT it is. Fair call, looked like the ball might just have touched the ground as Karun plucked it. Coming to the ball, it was full and shaping away, squared up batsman as he was looking to work it towards the on-side, the edge flew to the left of first slip. Karun stuck his left hand out and claimed the catch |
506 | FOUR, batsman wants to have some fun, length delivery outside off, he gets forward and thumps it over extra-cover for a boundary |
507 | out Caught by Samson!! Another catch for Samson and another wicket for bowler. This was another leg-break, bowled slower and on the middle-stump line. batsman swung across in hope, he had to manufacture all the power himself, doesn't get the elevation either. Samson moves across to his right at deep mid-wicket and takes the offering. The umpire has called for a strategic break with just one wicket remaining. Not sure what the two teams will talk about over the next 150 seconds. batsman c Samson b bowler 5(7) [4s-1] |
508 | out Caught by Mishra!! The Daredevils have opened their tally and it's Cummins who has the final wicket. On a good length and on the stumps, batsman was backing away on the drive, doesn't get hold of the shot and chips it tamely towards cover. Mishra runs forward, dives and completes the catch. A 97-run mauling at home for Pune, they would love to forget today's display as soon as possible. batsman c Mishra b bowler 7(7) [4s-1] |
509 | out Caught by Samson!! Zak attack strikes! Glum faces in the crowd. batsman falls early in the innings, big wicket for DD. It was on a fuller length around off, it was the off-cutter from Zak. batsman perhaps went hard at it, the ball seemed to have stopped on the pitch and that must've foiled batsman's attempt there. Skewed off the toe-end and lobs a sitter to Samson at mid-off, who backtracks and pouches it safely. So, Zak gets the better of his counterpart. batsman c Samson b bowler 10(9) |
510 | FOUR, wow. Delicate stuff from Agarwal. Opens the bat face to this length ball and runs it towards third man, Sanju had to cover some ground, sprinted to his left but couldn't stop the ball from reaching the ropes |
511 | out Caught by Chris Morris!! The old warhorse gets his second wicket. Agarwal's poor form continues. He was scarced for runs, wanted to throw caution to the winds but doesn't succeed. Went for a on-the-up drive to a good length delivery that probably kicked up a touch. It was the slower ball from bowler that did the trick. He slices it straight to extra-cover, who took a couple of steps back and held onto it. batsman c Chris Morris b bowler 20(18) [4s-2] |
512 | FOUR, fabulous shot from batsman. Sets up a solid base and caresses it past long-off |
513 | FOUR, what a way to get off the mark in IPL for batsman. Leans across to a full ball and blasts it through extra cover |
514 | FOUR, edged and four. Morris is not happy. Throws a wild stare at the batsman. On a length and just outside off, batsman went hard at it, gets an outside edge that races away to the third man fence |
515 | out Caught by Nadeem!! Short ball consumes batsman. Morris picks up his first wicket. A lifter angled at the batsman, batsman went for the pull. The ball got big on him and he manages a fat top-edge that went up in the air. Nadeem from fine leg darted in and snaffled it with ease. batsman c Nadeem b bowler 10(5) [4s-2] |
516 | out Caught by Pant!! "Ahhhh, ahhhhh" goes Pant and S Ravi raises his finger. A big blow for Pune. Stunned silence in the crowd. batsman tried to be too cheeky, went low to play the scoop over the keeper's head. Gets a faint tickle and Pant nestles it into the gloves. batsman c Pant b bowler 8(7) [4s-1] |
517 | out Caught by Pant!! Gone! Three wickets in three overs and Pune are in trouble now. batsman bites the dirt. Cummins reaps reward for his tidy bowling. Again slants it wide of off, batsman went for a pull. Wasn't too short and all he could manage was an under-edge that was gobbled up by Pant. Smart catch, must say as it was dying. He bent forward and took it cleanly. batsman c Pant b bowler 2(5) |
518 | FOUR, slightly straighter from bowler and the batsman clips the ball away between mid-wicket and mid-on for a four. Hardly touched it and the ball sped away after he shuffled a tad across his sticks |
519 | FOUR, looks to defend and the ball trims the inside edge to run past the sticks. Cruel it is for the bowlers. The ball lifted up after landing on a length forcing the batsman to jab at it but the ball clipped the inner edge to run past the timbers and the keeper for a four |
520 | FOUR, serene! The format might demand slam bang wham. But a back foot cover drive with a lean into the shot and hitting it on top of the bounce is welcomed all day long. He trampled back to stroke it off the back foot |
521 | SIX, BOY O BOY! Clatters the ball out of the park after dropping down on one knee. The moment it hit the bat, it was heading one way - into the oblivion! That was again flattish and the batsman wasted no time in sending it away aerially |
522 | FOUR, he's sprayed it around a bit today, has bowler. Short and wide and gives away the boundary to finish the over. Slashed over backward point by Rana |
523 | SIX, wow! Just a flick of the wrists from batsman and away she goes. That's scintillating timing. It was a fullish off-cutter on middle stump and batsman whipped it comfortably over deep mid-wicket |
524 | out Caught by Dhawan!! He's whipped a pull straight to square leg. It was an innocuous short of length delivery into the body, not very high, and batsman usually is pretty adept at dealing with those. But this time it seemed as if he didn't go through with the shot. It's straight down the throat of Dhawan. Can team still turn things around? batsman c Dhawan b bowler 11(11) [6s-1] |
525 | SIX, oh that's a full bunger on leg stump, the dew causing the ball to slip out of Rashid's hand. So difficult. batsman swings it away over square leg |
526 | SIX, just clears long-on! He didn't get all of it, having to fetch it from outside off, but there was enough power in those shoulders |
527 | FOUR, 10 off 2 balls. bowler continues to be expensive. Strays just a touch in line, bowls it on middle and leg, and batsman glances it away past short fine leg |
528 | SIX, he's mowed that over deep mid-wicket. Back of a length, maybe a cutter, and it sits up to be whacked. Flat six |
529 | FOUR, very wide outside off and batsman somehow reaches out and then generates enough power to carve it over extra-cover. He's in a hurry now |
530 | FOUR, off the top-edge or the glove, the ball lobs over Naman Ojha and runs away to the boundary. batsman was rushed on the pull on this occasion. The line from bowler cramped him up too. But he still gets the boundary |
531 | out Caught by Cutting!! He's holed out off a full toss. He swings hard but gets it right off the toe-end. It still goes pretty far and is caught just 5 yards inside the deep mid-wicket boundary. Cutting takes a smart catch running backwards and to his right. batsman c Cutting b bowler 37(20) [4s-3 6s-3] |
532 | FOUR, lofted over mid-off! He picks the slower ball, the length was pretty full outside off and Rana's focus is purely on timing. Doesn't go very hard at it. Brilliant batting |
533 | out Bowled!! bowler knocks over Rana's off-bail. It hit nothing else but the bail. Third wicket for bowler. He's been fantastic again today. A little bit of nip from a good length, Rana was backing away looking to create a shot out of nothing and missed it by a long way in the end. He's played a fine knock though. batsman b bowler 45(36) [4s-3 6s-2] |
534 | FOUR, repeats the gait of the previous ball and gets an outside edge to run it down towards third man. He got wood on it and got it fine after just using the pace of the bowler. 15 off the over! |
535 | FOUR, errs in length, which is short, errs in line, which is wide. Enough said. The batsman cashes into the blank cheque of a delivery with the flay of the arms and stroked it beautifully through the heavily manned off-side |
536 | out Bowled!! The batsman preempts by dancing down the track but he lost his dancing shoes in the process as the slower ball doled out deceives him. The wily old bowler rolled his fingers over the ball and the batsman trying for a cross batted swipe completely missed the ball due to the lack of pace on it. team get the first blood. batsman b bowler 14(11) [4s-3] |
537 | FOUR, nicely done as he wristily whips the ball in the air over the man at mid-on. A few bounces and into the fence. A length ball it was and the batsman did it with nonchalance |
538 | FOUR, targets the mid-riff with another short delivery but the pint-sized dynamite is onto it in a flash! The short arm jab on the pull and the ball screeches away into the backward square region on the on-side for a four |
539 | out Lbw!! The wrong 'un and the team skipper seems to be at the wrong end of it again. First game: Tahir, Now: Rashid. The ball decked in after landing and the meek prodded attempt from batsman plots his own misery. The impact might have been around off even as batsman lunged forward on the defensive push. The teen sensation continues to bamboozle the men. batsman lbw b bowler 4(4) |
540 | SIX, banged in short, the batsman plays an awkward shot to pull the ball away fine on the on-side for a maximum. He had eyes away from the ball and then the evasive action with the bat coming down on it made good enough contact |
541 | FOUR, that was a chocolate brownie of a delivery and the batsman puts the icing on it with the help of an eyes-scream of a shot. Cut away easily past the man at point making the man at third man look like a statue |
542 | FOUR, the ramp now! He is pulling out all the tricks from his hat. Short ball bumped in well outside off and the batsman helped it on his way towards third man |
543 | FOUR, poor delivery on the pads and third in a row as the batsman clips the ball away over the man at short fine leg |
544 | FOUR, attempted slog sweep, is not really well timed but is well placed to send it away into the vacant backward square region for a much needed four |
545 | out Caught by Bhuvneshwar!! Length ball tossed up and he has chipped it straight to the man at long-on who dives forward and takes a good catch. He gave the impression to us that it might have stuck onto the wicket a bit. But it was a bizzare shot as he just lofted it without any particular intent on the shot. End of a good knock from batsman. batsman c Bhuvneshwar b bowler 39(24) [4s-7] |
546 | SIX, bring it on! Make a GIF of that shot. batsman swapped his hands and belted it with switch hit over third man, that's some hitting I tellya. Got behind it and gave it a full whack, bam! |
547 | out Caught by Parthiv Patel!! Not again! batsman tries for another switch hit and this time it doesn't come off, ends up playing it off the back of the bat as the ball slid onto him and then the heroics of PP. He anticipated the shot, moved quickly to his left and dived full length before nestling it inches above the turf. Stunning catch that. batsman c Parthiv Patel b bowler 49(34) [4s-7 6s-2] |
548 | FOUR, don't worry about that! Healthy width on offer, Hooda throws the kitchen sink and gets his christmas gift |
549 | FOUR, right in the sweeping zone for SD. He gets inside the line and thrashes it away behind square |
550 | out Caught by Pollard!! bowler's doosra does the trick, and boy is he happy! Does a cradle like celebration for his daughter, who is in attendance today. That was fired around off and middle, Hooda knelt down on knee and miscued the slog, was trying to clear long-on, but didn't get the distance. Pollard sets himself at long-on and consumes with ease. batsman c Pollard b bowler 9(9) [4s-1] |
551 | FOUR, batsman's getting better with each passing delivery, he steps out, takes bowler on and lofts him inside-out over extra cover |
552 | out Bowled!! No fifties for the openers. Warner misses it by a run and SD by two. It was a loopy full toss which dips under batsman's cross-bat hoick to crash into his stumps. Easily done. bowler has a wicket, been expensive thus far but this wicket should sooth his nerves. batsman b bowler 48(43) [4s-5 6s-1] |
553 | FOUR, no fuss from batsman! Arrives and gets a boundary, with utmost ease. A friendly full toss outside off, batsman shows the full face of the bat, bowler's pace takes care of the rest. Raced past mid-off |
554 | FOUR, a fielding blip from Buttler and that's a boundary. Yuvi knew what was coming with the field set, stayed on the back foot and unveiled the cut with a glitter of left-hander's elegance. Jos runs to his right from cover and dives, the ball slids through his fingers to add agony to a grumpy-looking Rohit Sharma |
555 | out Bowled!! Dragged on! Lands on the seam and gets the ball to angle away from Yuvi; making him fetch that far from his reach. Yuvi with his laden-feet went through with the pull and chopped it back onto his stumps, off the thick inside edge firing off the PUMA sticker. batsman b bowler 5(7) [4s-1] |
556 | FOUR, the gangly batsman makes his intentions clear. He wants to have a piece of slinga bowler. Waits deep inside the crease and bludgeons a full ball back over the bowler's head |
557 | FOUR, that's a wood chopper! Takes on a full half-volley and slices the whacky-drive over a leaping exra cover. Bhajji was the fielder and he may have got a fingertip on that |
558 | FOUR, slower ball alright, but serves too much of width. Ends up as a full toss, batsman chips it over extra cover, easy peasy |
559 | out Bowled!! The bowler special, batsman can't do much, just drops his head and walks off. Goes a touch wide of the crease and lands a perfect yorker, right at the base of middle stump. By the time batsman got his bat down, his stumps were already shattered. Phewf! batsman b bowler 20(10) [4s-4] |
560 | out Caught by Nitish Rana!! Way too early through his shot, played the shot on Monday, and the ball...Um! It arrives on Wednesday. Looking to flick, a healthy leading edge pops up to Rana at backward point. Simple catch. batsman c Nitish Rana b bowler 1(2) |
561 | out Caught by Pollard!! The wickets keep tumbling. Slower ball, in right-hander's swinging arc, Ojha got under it but he didn't give it a full whack. Relies on timing and chips it high into the night sky, Pollard is safe as a house at long-on. batsman c Pollard b bowler 9(9) |
562 | out Caught&Bowled!! bowler says "It's mine" and he makes no mistake. Charges out of his crease and clatters it, nowhere off the middle, it hung in the air for long and bowler had it covered. Caught it around the cover region. batsman c and b bowler 2(4) |
563 | FOUR, lovely shot, poor ball from bowler, dropped it short and wide of off, batsman backed away, plays with the turn and cuts it over cover, one bounce and over the ropes |
564 | FOUR, this is even better. This was not all that short but batsman made room for himself, stayed back and went inside out over cover, almost went all the way, bounced just in front of the ropes |
565 | FOUR, nicely played by batsman, it was the slower ball from bowler, rolled his fingers across the seam. batsman watched it all along, played with an open face and guides it in the gap behind square on the off-side, beats backward point and rolls away to the fence |
566 | FOUR, poor ball from bowler, too straight and on batsman's pads, he allows it to come onto it, closes the face of the bat and glances it fine, beats the keeper and rolls away to the fence |
567 | FOUR, cracking shot, width on offer from bowler, batsman waits on it, gets on top of the bounce, uses bowler's pace and steers it to the right of backward point. No chance for the fielder running across to his left from third man |
568 | FOUR, streaky and four, on a good length and on the stumps, batsman heaves across the line, gets a thick inside edge past square leg. The pace of this outfield is so good that it rolls away to the fence |
569 | SIX, cracking shot, length delivery on the stumps, right in the hitting arc for batsman, he gets forward and thumps it high and over mid-wicket, went sailing into the stands for a maximum |
570 | FOUR, cracking shot, on a good length and just outside off, batsman does a little shimmy, gets close to the ball and drills it wide of mid-off. No need to run for those. 15 from the over |
571 | leg byes, 1 run, short of a good length and on batsman's hips, he was looking to nudge and missed, rolled away off his pads towards square leg |
572 | FOUR, that's a bad fumble from Rana and he has cost his team two runs. Full and on his pads, flicked away behind square on the on-side. Rana did the hard yards, got to the ball and slips it through his hands |
573 | FOUR, back-to-back boundaries and it has turned out to be another expensive over from bowler. He got too predictable with the slower ones, batsman was waiting for it, cuts it hard and beats the fielder at point to his left |
574 | FOUR, inside edge and four, on a good length and holding its line outside off, batsman walked across on the swipe, gets a thick inside edge - past the off-stump and past the diving Parthiv. A hat-trick of boundaries for team |
575 | SIX, beautifully played, banged in short and angling across the left-hander, batsman backs away,uses the pace of Hardik and helps it on its way, no one in the deep and the ball sails over the ropes |
576 | FOUR, slapped, short of a length and shaping away from outside off, batsman plays with the angle and carves it behind square on the off-side, one bounce and over the ropes |
577 | FOUR, cracking shot, width on offer from bowler, batsman gets on top of the bounce and cuts it in front of square on the off-side, beats the man in the ring and rolls away to the fence |
578 | FOUR, edged and four, a third slip would have gobbled it up. Short of a good length and angling across batsman, opened him up as he looked to defend, the edge flew past the diving Maxwell at second slip, third man can't get across - despite the dive |
579 | out Bowled!! batsman attempts a cheeky lap sweep and ends up self-destructing himself. His captain doesn't look too pleased with it. This was tossed up on the leg-stump line, batsman went a long way across his stumps, bent down and was looking to lap it past the keeper, misses and the ball hits the top of leg-stump. Hushed silence at the Eden Gardens as batsman walks away. batsman b bowler 26(16) [4s-3 6s-1] |
580 | 1 run, 33rd IPL fifty for GG. Equals Warner's record for the most number of fifties. Waves his bat around to acknowledge the Eden Garden crowd. Reaches the milestone with a wristy flick through mid-wicket |
581 | FOUR, off-pace delivery and batsman spotted it early. The length was short and with his open stance, it was always going to be trouble for Mohit, punched off the back foot in front of square and Axar at sweeper gave up the chase very soon |
582 | FOUR, what was Ishant doing? batsman backed away to the leg-side, bowler followed him with a short and quick delivery, batsman adjusted and ramped it fine. Ishant at short third man stood like a statue |
583 | FOUR, top shot! Just a caress and off she went racing to the boundary cushion. bowler tosses it up outside off and draws Pandey into the drive, the Karnataka batsman drives it handsomely through extra cover and beat a quick David Miller at sweeper cover |
584 | FOUR, slower short ball and Pandey had all the time in the world to dismiss it from his presence, delays the pull and sends it along the turf behind square, well wide of the deep square leg fielder |
585 | FOUR, that's bread and butter for batsman. Short, wide and he cracks it away. Went back in his crease and unleashed the cut shot behind square, beating backward point and third man quite comfortably |
586 | SIX, team complete a stunning 8-wicket win. Their eighth win on the trot against team. Pandey brings up the winning runs in style, picks the slower delivery and swipes it flat over long-on. The fielder there was a mere spectator |
587 | SIX, lovely, batsman was sent in to do some pinch-hitting and he's doing exactly that. Length delivery outside off, batsman gets forward, drives it through the line and sends it high and over the fence at long-off |
588 | FOUR, cracking shot, hint of width outside off, the length was on the shorter side as well, batsman gets on top of the bounce and cuts it in front of square on the off-side, beats the fielder at point and rolls away to the fence |
589 | FOUR, this is turning out to be an excellent start from team. Sandeep overcompensates and bowls one full and wide of off, batsman shimmies down the track, gets down on one knee and drills it past extra-cover |
590 | FOUR, poor ball from bowler, short and wide of off, batsman gets on top of the bounce and cracks it behind square on the off-side. Beats backward point to his right and the man getting across in the deep |
591 | FOUR, this is a super quick outfield, flatter and on batsman's pads, nudged away behind square on the on-side. Two men gave chase, but the ball kept going away from their reach |
592 | FOUR, lovely shot, pushed through flatter and quicker, batsman shuffles down the track, makes room as he did so and drives it wide of mid-off, no need to run for those |
593 | FOUR, back-to-back boundaries for batsman, bowler drags his length back, drops it short and on batsman's pads, pulled away over square leg for another boundary |
594 | FOUR, 18 runs from the over, poor ball from bowler, fired it flatter and on batsman's pads, he goes back and clips it past square leg. The man in the ring was pretty square, gives the chase, but it's in vain |
595 | SIX, lovely shot, batsman is hurting team here, length delivery on the stumps, he presses forward and thumps it over mid-on, has enough power to pop over the fence on the full |
596 | SIX, back-to-back sixes, this is batsman's highest ever T20 score. bowler isn't learning here, another length delivery on the stumps, batsman backs away and lifts it high and over long-on, went a long way over the ropes at long-on |
597 | FOUR, cracking shot, awful start from bowler, fine leg was inside the ring and he looks to bounce out batsman. There's not much bounce on this one, batsman swivels across and helps it over short fine-leg, one bounce and over the ropes |
598 | out Caught by Axar!! batsman's fun is over, but has he taken this match away from team's grasp? This was banged in short and on the stumps, batsman swivels across and pulls it hard and flat - was struck pretty well but went straight into the hands of Axar at deep mid-wicket. He doesn't drop those and batsman walks off to a nice round of applause. Even his captain enjoyed it, gives a good send-off to his partner. batsman c Axar b bowler 37(18) [4s-4 6s-3] |
599 | FOUR, the short-ball attack isn't working and team aren't learning either. Banged in short and down the leg-side, batsman gets inside the line, swivels across and pulls it behind square on the on-side for a boundary |
Subsets and Splits
