    10.5 clothed to long on, and Punja breaks through! Googly floated up full outside off, and Sudharsan is enticed into the big hit. The bat, though, closes upon impact and the ball arrows off the lower part of the blade. Archer tracks it and the takes it. Sudharsan livid with himself, but RR have something to show for this middle overs squeeze! 118/1
    16.2 Gill looks for something funky, and Gill departs! Speared in full outside off. Gill is perhaps anticipating that delivery too and he shapes up for the scoop. Gets into a tangle where he cannot free his arms enough, though, and the ball clinks off the toe-end. Deshpande takes it neatly over his shoulder while back-pedaling from short fine, and Gill's excellent knock has come to an end! 185/3
    13.2 another miscue and this time, taken! Jadeja does that pocket celebration, and this is a huge wicket! Tossed up a touch outside off and Buttler's eyes light up. He looks to go downtown but slices across it way too much. Ferreira comes in off the long off fence and does the rest. Buttler disappointed with himself, but this is another very handy breakthrough! 150/2

    18.1 Shanked to extra cover, and the slower ball does the trick for Brijesh! Dug in outside off too, meaning Holder has to reach out for it and then try to fetch it. He tries his best but he is always working against the line. A tame slice in the end and Jaiswal, stood at extra cover, makes no mistake! 205/4

    3.3 goes straight up, and Rabada sends back the other RR opener too! Banged in short just outside off and this climbs through too. Bowled at 152.1kph and Jaiswal is rushed all ends up on the pull. Splices it terribly and Sindhu, running in from extra cover, hands Rabada his first wicket. Rabada is pumped; RR, under pressure! 40/2
    2.5 sharp short ball, and Sooryavanshi perishes! This is a brutish delivery, bowled at 146.6kph and climbing through on middle and leg. Sooryavanshi is cramped on the pull and cannot free his arms the way he would like. Only gets height, via the top edge and Arshad, running to his right from short fine, gobbles up the chance. Big, big moment in the game! 38/1
    7.3 hot knife through butter, and Jurel is outta here! Fizzed through on a length just outside off. Jurel plays the flatter trajectory and shapes for the cut. Gives himself room but is awfully late on the stroke. The ball whizzes past his flailing blade and knocks back off stump. Rashid on the board early! 87/4
    5.4 another high ball, and Holder is not going to drop that! Rabada at it again. Hard length just outside off and this gets a touch big on Hetmyer, as he looks to swipe at it. Seems like a cutter too and that messes up Hetmyer's timing. A feeble shank and Holder does the rest at mid on! 68/3
    13.5 Rashid off on a celebrappeal, and the finger goes up! Jadeja, though, wants to review! Another fizzing delivery, pitching full on leg and then straightening a touch. Jadeja plays outside the line and gets beaten on the inside. Impact is on the front pad, and this could be a review more in hope. No bat involved. And Ball Tracking has the crashing into middle and leg. Jadeja has to go, and he takes a review along with him too! 136/7
    7.5 does him all ends up, and Rashid has the ball on a string! Another fizzing leg-break, on a fullish length on middle and off. Drifts in a little and then rips away. Ferreira has no clue about it and he plays for the googly. Plays down the wrong line, and Ferreira has to trudge off. Rashid is over the moon, and GT firmly in control now! 91/5
    11.4 off stump knocked back, and Rashid has the last laugh! This is beautiful bowling. Fullish on leg and with just enough air to tempt Dubey into a slog. He does so but loses all his shape. Loses track of the ball too and he hears the rattling of his stumps soon after. RR on the ropes! 115/6
    16.1 skied, and Holder has another! Short ball outside off and Holder generates steep bounce with this. Shanaka looks to flat-bat it but gets it all wrong. Skews it up and Gill, stationed at mid off, completes the most regulation of catches. GT almost there now! 151/9
    14.5 well, Holder has a wicket now! And it is a short ball that does the trick. Archer swings like a rusty gate again and is too late on the stroke. The ball kisses the top edge and Buttler completes the most regulation of catches. RR eight down now! 141/8
    16.3 another terrible shank, and Holder finishes off the demolition job! GT go level with SRH at the top of the table, and RR have been consigned to another mid-season defeat! Half-way down outside off and this climbs steeply too. Deshpande cannot control his swat and only clinks it towards backward point. A tame end to what was largely a tame RR performance, and GT have been full value for the two points tonight! 152/10
