FOUR, first boundary for batsman and team. Full and on the pads, needed to be put away and batsman did just that, picked it up and dispatched it over mid-wicket, couple of bounces and into the fence

FOUR, back-to-back boundaries to end the first over. Again, bowler is a tad short in his length, batsman had the width to cut and he didn't try to hit it hard, just placed it behind point and Bhuvi at third man gave up the chase pretty quickly

FOUR, hit straight back at bowler and he was late to get his hand up. Once more the off-cutter which almost fooled Jadhav, who shimmied down and checked his drive, middled it alright to beat the mid-off fielder

FOUR, another full toss, it's Jadhav this time and he picks his spot into the deep mid-wicket fence. Not great bowling from bowler. He's missing the yorker by quite a bit

FOUR, four more. Jadhav starting to really find his timing now and he's looking dangerous. This is smart batting rather than just throwing his bat at everything. He knows that fine leg is up and so he waits for the back of a length delivery to come to him before pulling it over the fielder. bowler under pressure

out batsman Run Out!! 1 run completed. Cutting has conjured a wicket out of nowhere. That's a sensational throw from the deep. My goodness. He's absolutely nailed the stump from long leg and Jadhav is out of here. This is a huge moment in the context of the match, especially as Jadhav was looking so good. Even this shot which he played was extraordinary. It was a length ball outside off, Jadhav sat on his back knee and scooped it over short fine leg. He was a little slow to decide on the second run, maybe a little hesitant and boy did Cutting make him pay! More than a couple of feet short, even with a dive. batsman run out (Cutting) 31(16) [4s-4 6s-1]

FOUR, goes down and smashes the full toss over the deep mid-wicket ropes. Some nerves maybe from the Afghanistan leggie and batsman pounced all over them with a mighty slog-sweep

out Caught by Yuvraj!! Rashid strikes back! That might have been the googly. Yeah, it seems so. batsman went for another slog-sweep, but due to the variation, Rashid managed to generate some extra-bounce which took more of a thick top-edge and lobbed up towards long-on. It still came really close to clearing the boundary though. Yuvraj keeps his cool and takes it smartly. batsman c Yuvraj b bowler 30(22) [4s-3]

out Caught by Henriques!! Straight up off a leading edge, taken! team taking control. There's no turn on the ball as Bipul fires it on leg-stump from round the wicket, Baby swings across the line and is undone by the sliding delivery. Good catch from Henriques too. He pedalled backwards from mid-wicket and made it much easier than it should have been. batsman c Henriques b bowler 1(3)

SIX, Rashid finishes with a long hop. To be fair, it's not abysmally short, but batsman is so good on the back foot. Rocks back quickly and hammers the pull over long-on

SIX, slower ball again but this time batsman hacks it over deep mid-wicket. It was slightly closer to off-stump and was given a fair tonk

FOUR, plants his foot down and absolutely drills the ball wide of a diving extra-cover. Overpitched from bowler, batsman blasts him away

1 run, dropped! Naman Ojha, with the gloves on, puts one down. The ball went high up and was swirling awkwardly all the way through. But at this level, it should be taken. batsman was completely duped by the slower leg-cutter. Such good bowling from Bhuvi to keep it wide of off and out of reach

out Caught by Yuvraj!! Gone this time. Yuvraj makes no mistake at backward point. What a top over this has been from bowler. It may now be a mountain too high for the team to climb. batsman backs away to slash a back of a length delivery over point. But this is a leg-cutter which bounces spongily and he slices it up to the fielder. batsman c Yuvraj b bowler 11(10) [6s-1]

out Caught by Henriques!! That's the end of batsman, and of team. The little bit of reverse-swing which bowler uses to curl the ball away from batsman does his undoing. Despite it being another full toss, batsman slices it straight up off the outside half of his bat. Simple catch at extra-cover. batsman c Henriques b bowler 22(17) [4s-1 6s-1]

out Bowled!! Terrific yorker from bowler; a perfect way to seal wicket no. 100 in the IPL for the veteran pacer. The ball tails back in, zips through batsman before his bat could come down and plants leg-stump into its grave. bowler on a hat-trick. batsman b bowler 0(2)

SIX, full and wide, Mills has a proper dash at it and he's flayed it away over the point boundary. Magnificent hit. bowler won't enjoy that

out Caught by Warner!! Good lord, that's got air miles on it. Way up into the night sky, Warner settles under it at long-on and takes it. bowler had slowed the pace down on the delivery, causing Mills to go through with the hoick too early. Right off the toe-end of the bat. batsman c Warner b bowler 6(3) [6s-1]

SIX, first ball Choudhary faces in the IPL, he smashes it over long leg. A short ball from bowler, Choudhary swings into an instinctive pull and gets enough on it

out Chahal Run Out!! Direct-hit and that's it! team with a comprehensive win in the IPL 10 opener. Another pull shot from Choudhary, this one's straight to mid-wicket. Chahal comes running down only to be sent back and he had given up. Jordan with the bull's eye. Chahal run out (Jordan) 3(7)

FOUR, bowler goes back to the shorter length, batsman seems a tad comfortable with that, hops on one leg and uses bowler's pace to guide it past the diving short fine leg fielder

FOUR, might have been the slower one and batsman picked the bones out of that one. He cleared his front leg to give him more options and then slots the loft over mid-on, one bounce and over the rope

SIX, that ball hung in the night sky for eternity. Never looked like coming down. For what it's worth batsman gets the maximum result. Length delivery right in the swinging zone and batsman did not hold back, went full-monty and heaved it over deep mid-wicket. Six number one for batsman in IPL 10

SIX, batsman is in the mood. Mind you, he's not been in the best of forms, but IPL is his cup of tea. bowler dishes a full length delivery and hopes to get away with it, batsman doesn't allow him to, carves it over long-on for his second maximum

FOUR, batsman is playing the perfect foil to Gayle. Warner already worried. Full on middle and leg, whipped through mid-wicket and mid-on. Hit uppishly but placed it expertly in the gap

FOUR, not convincing, but batsman will take that. A very good over from bowler. Just misses the length this ball, goes full and that allows batsman to get underneath and hoick it over mid-wicket. Not off the middle but enough to clear the fielder

FOUR, Rashid throws it up once more and this time batsman threads the crowded off-side field. Overpitched and batsman went full-throttle on the drive, raced to the sweeper fence

out Bowled!! He strikes! The customary celebration follows. One hand up and the finger pointing skywards. The most delighted man in the dugout was his fellow countryman - Mohammad Nabi. He too had his finger up in celebration. The quicker wrong 'un and batsman clearly did not pick it, went back for the cut and gets cramped for room, only manages a chop onto the stumps. batsman b bowler 24(16) [4s-5]

SIX, a gift from Hooda and batsman thumps it over the rope. A full toss outside off, batsman takes a step out and slots it straight back over the bowler's head. Went miles back into the crowd

out Caught by Warner!! It was an experiment from Warner and it has paid off. Completes the catch, turns towards the crowd and does a fist pump. team have lost two in quick succession. Both set batsmen gone. Slows it up as batsman gives the charge, he goes through with the loft even though he isn't to pitch of the ball, miscues it towards long-off and Warner ain't dropping those. batsman c Warner b bowler 32(21) [4s-2 6s-3]

FOUR, lots of flighted and lands as a half volley, batsman gets a good stride forward and drives it past Henriques at extra cover, the timing was superb as long-off had no chance of cutting that off

FOUR, ordinary delivery from Rashid and Jadhav is all over it. The young man is shaking his head while taking his cap from the umpire. Half tracker which sat up nicely for Jadhav, who pulls it between deep mid-wicket and long-on

SIX, that looked like a half-hearted shot from Jadhav and it has travelled the distance. Picked the back of a length delivery and pulled it to the vacant deep mid-wicket region, just cleared the rope

FOUR, batsman does the most of the full length delivery, stays deep in the crease and opens himself up to free his arms, smashes it straight down the ground and even a quick Warner could not reach that from long-on

FOUR, lovely shot, sublime timing on that one from batsman, it wasn't anything more than a back-foot punch. This was a back of a length delivery outside off, he got on top of the bounce and placed it in the gap past point

FOUR, smashed, width on offer from Choudhary, batsman gets forward and thumps it over mid-off, couple of bounces and over the ropes

SIX, .. and batsman makes the most of the free-hit. Another pretty poor ball from Choudhary, short and just outside off, batsman rocks back and pulls it high and over mid-wicket, went sailing into the stands for the first six of IPL 10

out Caught by Mandeep!! The night has changed completely for the 27-year old team debutant. batsman has been dismissed for less than fifty for the first time against team - when he's playing for team. On a good length and well outside off, it was there to be smacked, batsman didn't go through with the shot completely, he was just looking to clear the infield. Mandeep times his jump to perfection at point and completes a good two-handed catch. batsman c Mandeep b bowler 14(8) [4s-2 6s-1]

FOUR, oh boy. He's toying around with the bowling out here. bowler looks to go wide outside off with the shortened length as well. But batsman in all his confidence walks across, crouches and half-pulls, half-sweeps it past the reach of the man at 45-degrees behind square

out Caught by Sachin Baby!! This was coming. It really was. Tactical aggression here from SD with his dance down the track looking to smoke some into the clouds. Does everything in getting right to the pitch of this fuller one as well, swings mighty too, just that he skews it off the toe end. All the altitude and into the safe palms of Baby at long-on. batsman c Sachin Baby b bowler 40(31) [4s-5]

FOUR, here's the pick up. Vintage batsman. Helped by an allying half volley on the pads at gentle pace and all he does with it is lovingly lofts his flick. All the timing and a bounce into the mid-wicket fence

FOUR, streaky. But the runs keeps leaking. Does it really matter how. Wide, half way down the track and batsman anticipates the ball to fizz up in flat batting it across. There's barely any climb, and all he gets is the inside edge to impart the direction in guiding it just past the sticks

SIX, whoa. This is getting back in the 2007 zone. Choudhary without a clue as to where to bowl goes full and wide. The mind-reader gets the front leg out and unleashes a full bat swing showing the maker's name in tonking it right on the extra cover ropes

FOUR, and it keeps getting better. Rocks back, stands tall, waits for the short drag down to sit up and swats in his swivel. All the crunch in the timing to reintroduce it back into the fence

1 run, oh Aravind. You really do not grant a life. Certainly not to this guy. Another compulsive pull here from batsman but with the ball gaining in height, only manages the top-edge. Right into the hands of fine leg, who slides and makes an absolute mess

FOUR, back to the usual. Is this a surprise anymore. This time the skipper decides to test him with a short one, one that neither has the pace nor the bounce. And obliged with a swat. As flat as you'd want

FOUR, on the charge. And the slap. The combo bags yet another fence hunter. Walks down, intercepts the length and gets on top of the bounce of this back of a length delivery in flaying it in front of square

SIX, into the first tier. And a standing admire from batsman. bowler serves a pie with the short sitter and heaved away. So very typical. Equally friendly bowling here as well

SIX, now batsman joins the act. Wants to ive his partner a run for his money. A run for some crowd catchers. Keeps banging it in short with the pitch sucking away all the momentum. Another mow across to give the crowd some work. Brings up his fifty. In some style

out Caught by Sachin Baby!! Some normalcy restored. And as always is the case, it is spin that gets on that duty. bowler doesn't mind giving it some air inviting the big swing. And gets just that. A full-blooded tonk down and skewed away. Almost teases Baby at the long-off fence with this one threatening to fly over, before the bucket hands facing upwards come to the rescue in plucking it out. They're checking the foot's behaviour - just inside the permissable limits. batsman c Sachin Baby b bowler 52(37) [4s-3 6s-2]

1 run, is that a bird? Is that a plane? Oh it is Mandeep Singh on his flying ways. batsman goes through with yet another ones of his delightful airy drives. Is in the process of admiration just as Mandy runs across at the long-off fence, leaps and pulls it back into the field of play. Almost plucked it out while landing down too. Oof

FOUR, head on. The battle continues. With Mills keen on cramping him up with the short pepper gets it barely up to the ribs. Just when he spots the bat going flat and the face pointing upwards in hooking it away. Behind square it flies

SIX, the march to the double ton gets another gear. And some help from Chahal in tipping it over the fence. Hooda opens up and uses his entire height to good effect in his tall pull. Mid-wicket takes another one in its kitty

FOUR, a salute in celebration. Takes the bat to his head in holding it up to his team mates inside. Covers all his sticks with a shuffle and after getting bored of the wides throws the kitchen sink at it and slaps it over point. #HisFastestIPLFifty

FOUR, full, down leg. Nothing right with that. Certainly not if fine leg is inside. Certainly not if that man is Chris Gayle. All batsman has to do is get the bat down in giving it some tickle. And places it wide and into the ropes

SIX, the murder continues. Mass murder. Another spirit buries itself inside this pitch. Overcompensates going short, going quick but the response is quicker. Is brutal too. Back to his high backlifted pulls. Gravity too cannot pull it down

out Bowled!! The zings light up. The crowd refuses to believe and keep searching for the ball. Nope, that's the end of the fun in store folks. Mills for a change aims for the stumps, going slower as well. Nicely off the back of the hand and foxes him with the seam position. A swat across the line is missed eventually and the top of leg takes the brunt. This has been some serious clock roll back here. Makes me feel 10 years younger. batsman b bowler 62(27) [4s-7 6s-3]

SIX, the yorkers too cannot stop the bleeding. batsman rocks way inside, crouches, gets underneath the supposed yorker and carries on from the finals a year ago in tonking the drive

FOUR, eventful first over from Choudhary, a wicket and 16 runs. Another freebie to end his over, short and wide outside off, batsman was all over it as he cracked it square past point, beats the inner ring and rolls away to the fence

SIX, a dramatic photo finish. bowler tries another short one but this time batsman ain't surprised. Stands up, uses his entire height to good effect and smokes it away. Admiring it as he does so. As flat as the bat motion could get

1 run, a direct hit at the bowler's end and batsman was struggling. He was coming back for the second run, Dhawan didn't respond one bit. Aravind was the man with the throw and he sent it to the keeper. Kedar Jadhav still had time to effect the run-out, but his shy is way off-target. batsman scrambles home with a dive. Coming to the ball, it was flat and wide of off, punched to the left of long-off

FOUR, too short from bowler, can't bowl those at his pace. batsman swivels across, rolls his wrists and pulls it behind square on the on-side for a boundary

FOUR, gentle loosener from bowler, short and on batsman's hips, he swivels across, uses the pace on the ball and helps it behind square on the on-side for a boundary

FOUR, lovely shot, batsman is getting into his groove now. Comes down the track, doesn't get close to the ball, that allows him to free his arms and drill it back past the umpire, no need to run for those

FOUR, juicy full-toss and batsman has put it away, turning out to be an expensive start from bowler. batsman leans into the shot and finds the gap wide of mid-off, no need to run for those

FOUR, make that four fours of the over, banged in short and on the stumps, batsman swivels across, rolls his wrists and pulls it behind square on the on-side. bowler was expensive in the final of IPL 2016, he has started badly here once again

SIX, massive, batsman shimmies down the track, makes room as he did so and goes high and over long-on, went a long way into the stands. Watches in admiration as the ball kept going and going

FOUR, thank you bowler says batsman as he clips a leg-side dross fine to claim his first boundary

FOUR, length ball outside off and batsman is away. Swats it across the line and gets it wide of mid-on

FOUR, shuffles across and flicks a ball from middle stump, easily done. With fine leg inside the ring that was always asking for trouble, batsman obliged

FOUR, bowler not getting the googly right. Again down leg and this time Rana gets a bit of bat/glove on that. The ball races away fine beating the short fine fielder

out Caught&Bowled!! Thank You! A typical Bhatia wicket. Foxes the batsman with a 116kph delivery and batsman is found checking his drive, spoons a straightforward chance and Bhatia accepts the dolly. Once again the Delhi man showing his variety and the key to his success has been the length. It was on a good length and batsman thought it was there for the drive. Not to be. batsman c and b bowler 10(12)

SIX, bowler would be proud of that shot. Banged in halfway down and the line was around off, Rana is quick to transfer his weight onto the back foot and nails the pull over deep square leg. Third six that bowler has conceded

out Caught by Dhoni!! First Tahir and now Bhatia. The slow bowlers are doing it for team. Bhatia lets out a roar as soon as MS completes the catch. He's been exceptional with his variations. This offie was bowled at 96kph, Pandya just didn't have the pace to slog it across the line, the top-edge skies up and Dhoni calls for it. Takes it in his own unique way, one leg up in the air. batsman c Dhoni b bowler 3(5)

FOUR, batsman welcomes him with a thumping drive. Bit of air and batsman plants his front foot forward, smashed it straight back over the bowler's head. Didn't bother to run, he knew he had middled it

FOUR, batsman goes downtown once more and gets the desired result. bowler goes fuller with the tossed up delivery and batsman drills it straight back at bowler, who is slow to get down and stop it

out Caught by R Bhatia!! Bhatia has made amends. Put a sitter down early in the innings, this time keeps his eyes on the ball and ends Rana's knock. It was the googly which was drifting away from the southpaw, Rana went down and slog swept it flat, Bhatia didn't have to move at deep mid-wicket to pouch that. batsman c R Bhatia b bowler 34(28) [4s-1 6s-2]

SIX, bowler shouted "catch it" and there was no way anyone could have caught that. The South African goes a tad fuller in his length and that enables batsman to get underneath it, slams it flat and over long-off for a maximum

no run, was that a drop? Need another look. Wide yorker outside off, batsman bends down to squeeze it out, the ball takes the under-edge and goes low to Dhoni's right. The former skipper goes with one hand and spills it. Tough one for Dhoni and bowler's unlucky day continues, second drop off his bowling

FOUR, unlucky and bowler have been synonyms today. Full and outside off, batsman throws everything he's got at that and the outside edge flies away fine and bowler just stands there in his teapot position

out Caught by Mayank Agarwal!! bowler gets the better of the West Indian. But credit has to go to Mayank Agarwal, he's pulled off a stunner. Length delivery and batsman miscued his loft, came more off the base of the bat. It was dropping in front of long-on before Mayank dived full length and grasped it inches from the ground. He didn't allow it to pop out even as he hit the ground. batsman c Mayank Agarwal b bowler 27(17) [4s-3 6s-1]

SIX, batsman nails this. He should have tried this shot on the previous ball. Once again gets his front leg out of the way to give him a free swing, bowler makes his job easier by bowling a length delivery, tonked straight back over bowler for a maximum

SIX, consecutive sixes for team. bowler missed his yorker by a few inches and is launched into the crowd. Low full toss outside off, Pandya keeps a firm base and carves it over point. Went a long way back into the stands

SIX, bowler attains normal services. Three sixes in a row. Pandya getting into the thick of things. Length delivery and Pandya dismisses it over long-off. Just stood there and dispatched it with disdain

SIX, make it four in a row. bowler and death overs are not the best of mates. He goes full and misses the yorker by a couple of inches, Pandya had enough to get under that and smack it over long-on

FOUR, four more. Already 22 off the over. A game-changing over this. Fifty up for bowler. Full and wide outside off, Pandya throws the kitchen sink at that and the outside edge flies wide of Dhoni

SIX, Smith has a worried look as Pandya sends another one crashing over the rope. Switched to back of a length and the result remained the same, Pandya went back and nailed it over wide long-on. Pinged the ad hoarding on the full

FOUR, sat up on a perfect length to be smashed, batsman rocks back and nails the pull over mid-wicket. Take four!

FOUR, this pitch is a belter, 180 is a must. Half-volley outside off, batsman stands tall and slams it straight of mid-off who dives in vain

wide, out Southee Run Out!! Where was Southee going? He might have thought that it was the last ball of the innings, but Pandya was sure that it was a wide and there would be an extra delivery. bowler fires it outside off, Pandya can't reach it and Southee was at the other end by the time Pandya could react. Dhoni lobbed it to bowler, who took care of the rest. The third umpire checks if the batsmen had crossed, Pandya got his back foot in before Southee could reach the crease. It's touch and go, but Pandya will cling on to the strike. Southee run out (Dhoni/bowler) 7(3) [6s-1]

1 run, dropped by Bhatia. A straightforward chance. batsman doesn't get control of the cut and he slices it straight to third man, Bhatia didn't even need to move an inch. It was going arrow straight towards his chest. Straight in and straight out. Oops!

SIX, for the first time this over, he pitches it up and batsman goes bam! Gets underneath it and launches it for a maximum over long-on

SIX, bowler turns back and smiles. That's all he could do. Ridiculous T20 batting on display. batsman shuffles and scoops a pacy length ball over the keeper's head, lands just over the advertising triangles. Back to back sixes for batsman

FOUR, floated full on leg-stump, batsman sits up and brooms it away with sheer disdain, rocketed away behind square

out Bowled!! Knocked him over. bowler is off with his marathon sprint. The crowd go bonkers. It was a slider, just skids on and slaps batsman's leg peg as he fails to connect with the slog sweep. Got too greedy and paid the price. batsman b bowler 19(14) [4s-4]

FOUR, gives himself a lot of room as he skates down the pitch, pierces the gap between extra cover and mid-off to perfection. Fast hands, full flow of the willow. Jos-outrageously-talented-batsman

SIX, that's gone flying into the stands. Greyhounds out of his crease, picks the bones out of it, a Tennis-esque flat-batted smite over wide long-off

out Bowled!! And again, Imran bowler is on fire. He's just unstoppable at the moment. A canny skidder this, just keeps going with the angle and clatters batsman's stumps. He may have got a bit of inside edge there. He wasn't fully forward, neither backward. Poor feet movement. batsman b bowler 3(7)

out Lbw!! Inside-edge onto pad, but doesn't matter, the umpire has his finger up. No turn, just goes flat and on the stumps, batsman is stuck inside the crease, tries to block off the front foot and ekes a big edge onto his pad. In real time though it appeared as if it had gone straight towards his pad. Wasn't to be. Big moment in the game? batsman lbw b bowler 38(19) [4s-3 6s-3]

1 run, direct hit and batsman was gone! Smith was the fielder, curses himself after he missed the target. A casual knock down the wicket from batsman, goes straight to mid-off, Smithy had ample time to target all three at the non-striker's end. A big miss
