    3.3 The knuckle ball fools Watson. Back of a length, on off, sticks in the pitch, Watson does not spot the change-up, not many can. Watson flicks early and spoons a catch to Hooda at short midwicket. This carries to him nicely and he dives forward to pouch it safely 14/1
    7.1 and he strikes first ball to have Faf overbalanced and stumped. Umpire Chaudhary raises his finger at square leg. This might not be such a bad thing for CSK. Faf was struggling to time the ball. This is a quick fizzer from Rashid, full, drags Faf out for a sweep. Saha collects the non-turning ball and takes the bails off swiftly 32/2

    16.4 What a horrible mix-up between the wickets. Farcical running. But Rayudu and Raina laugh it off. Rayudu raises his bat and walks off. This was short and wide outside off, flat-batted away to wide long-off, where Pandey, one of India's best fielders, fumbles. Rayudu senses an opportunity for an extra run. Raina also (seemingly) calls for the second. Pandey throws the ball to Kaul, who fumbles too. He then runs after the ball, tags it to Williamson, who takes the bails off to catch Rayudu short at the non-striker's end. Rayudu can't undo his steps in time 144/3

    0.5 edged and taken! This is lovely bowling. Set him up perfectly for this dismissal. First there was the awayswinger, then the inswinger, and then the one that swings away again. Bhui pushes forward with hard hands and gets a thick edge to Watson at first slip. Terrific start for CSK 0/1
    17.6 in the air and taken! Is that the match? Jadeja with a brilliant catch. Bravo slows it up, rolls his fingers on this back of a length delivery, and miscues the pull in the air. Jadeja charges forward and puts in a perfectly-timed dive forward to complete an amazing catch. CSK back in this. Remember, Yusuf is not at 100 percent 150/5
    2.1 Deepak Chahar, what a star! Again some very sharp movement outside off, the away-swinger. Pandey, no feet, throws his hands at it, and gets a healthy outside edge that third man runs forward to grab. Poor shot, and Sunrisers in big trouble 10/2
    4.2 easy catch at extra cover. Hooda pre-meditates and shuffles too early. It's the slower ball again and he goes through with the flick early to get a leading edge that Jadeja runs back a few inches to take 22/3
    10.3 there's the error from the batsman. Pressure building up, and he's forced into a poor shot - a sweep with no room, and he gets a glove to short fine leg 71/4
    18.4 gone, Yusuf's gone! The task was just too much. He had to go for it, and he's picked out extra cover. The knuckle ball. CSK's variations at the death have been nothing short of remarkable here. Yusuf slashes and gets the leading edge as Raina settles under it 157/6
