- BATSMENRB4s6sSR15.6 oh, dear. He's scooped this straight to short fine. Dhawan tries to be too cute, gives away his intentions much before Bravo delivered, so he bowls a cutter at length on middle. No pace to work with and he hits it straight to Harbhajan even as thick rain clouds gather over the MCA Stadium from the east. They look ominous too. 141/23.3 he's hit this straight to backward point, good catch because the ball was travelling. This was bowled full, it swung away late from the fourth stump and Hales only managed to slice this. Got this off the bottom, the bat face turned in his hands. Got the impression he was looking to hit it too hard. Chahar's impressive run in the IPL continues. Back from injury and among the wickets immediately. 18/116.1 sensational catch from Bravo. He has removed two set batsmen in two balls. Full and wide from Thakur, Williamson drives with an open face, over short third man, but from deep point Bravo runs to his left, goes about 20 metres, and takes this low to his left with both hands 141/318.3 knuckle ball, and Pnadey is out. He had to go really. Saw a length ball, looked to deposit it into the stands, but ended up getting too under it skied it to long-off.

Some respite for Sunrisers 134/114.1 poor shot in desperation results in Raina's fall.
