12.6

Ashwin to Pollard, SIX, and now a six! tap, tap and smash! it was fuller on his pads and he swings his arms there, easily lofted over long-on for a six!

19.5

Bravo to Pollard, SIX, full-toss and that's been tapped for a six, now that's some serious power, it was almost a yorker-length ball and he needed move away, not too much of a swing of the bat and still hits it straight and long!

19.6

Bravo to Pollard, SIX, and another one! what a shot, what an end to the innings! it was a slower one and he's been smacked over long-on for another maximum to get the Mumbai Indians close to 150

8.4

Harbhajan Singh to Morkel, SIX, gone for a six! that was slightly fuller and he throws his bat at it, did not seem to have come off the middle of the bat, more of the edge but it's still gone for a six, some power!

12.2

Ojha to Dhoni, SIX, slapped for a six! he will have to go for it and that's what he's done against Ojha, was shorter and flatter and flat-batted it over long-on for a maximum

14.2

Ojha to Dhoni, SIX, shot, six! that looked six very early into the shot, gave him some width there and it was in his arc too, slogs it over the long-on fielder for a six

15.4

Pollard to Dhoni, SIX, and now Dhoni's done to Pollard what Pollard's done to many, it was on a length and gets enough room to swing it away, hits it hard, high and long enough for a six!

19.2

Pollard to Dhoni, SIX, slapped across the line for a six to get to his half-century, too little too late

19.3

Pollard to Dhoni, SIX, and again, that's the second one in a row, was very full and on the off stump, he's given it his all and smashed for a six

0.3

Sharma to Smith, FOUR, and this one is cracked through the point area for a four, was on a length yet again and just outside the off stump, he hits it through the line and gets it in the gap on the off side

0.6

Sharma to Karthik, FOUR, edged for a four! the slip was wide almost at the second slip slot and that's a genuine edge that's gone between him and the keeper, who's up to the stumps, rushes away for a four!

2.6

Sharma to Karthik, FOUR, shot, punchy one at that, short of length outside the off stump and tapped through the empty extra-cover region for a four

4.1

Sharma to Karthik, FOUR, what a shot, poor fielding but that's an excellent piece of timing from Karthik, much like in the previous over, he gets a length ball outside the off stump, punches it through extra-cover, beats two fielders including a diving Vijay who gets some hand on it but still goes through!

5.3

Morkel to Rayudu, FOUR, shot that, was slightly fuller than what he's been bowling so far, he goes over the bowler's head, smacked back to the fence

5.5

Morkel to Rayudu, FOUR, shortens his length and on the middle stump line, you don't do that when you have so many players on the off side, he gets a wristy flick going for him and easily beats the square-leg fielder through to the fence for a four

6.3

Sharma to Rayudu, FOUR, edged for a four! it was a quicker one this, 135.6 km/hr, he throws his bat at it and takes the edge of the bat, through the non-existent slips and for a four

9.4

Morris to Pollard, FOUR, and he's away with a four first ball, but this is all timing, and little power, pitched up on off, he eases it past the bowler, mid off is up, long on has too much to do

10.4

Ashwin to Rayudu, FOUR, shot that, inside out and just over the extra-cover fielder for a four, Raina was there and he had no chance of getting his hand to it

11.2

Jadeja to Pollard, FOUR, edged through the slips for a four, it was a quicker one and looks to drive through the line, some turn and beats Ashwin in the slips, through his hands!

14.1

Jadeja to Pollard, FOUR, quicker, flatter and powerfully smashed away to the sweeper region, Vijay had to run across about 15 yards to get to it, gets the dive in, stops the ball but it rolls away off the deflection to the fence

14.3

Jadeja to Pollard, FOUR, that was wide outside the off yet again and he swings it away, gets a huge inside edge through to wide long-on for a four!

15.3

Bravo to Pollard, FOUR, punched back for a four, was a length ball on the off stump and he's smacked it back, Bravo was looking to get his right hand out but the balls touched the ropes by the time he's got it out!

16.5

Morris to Pollard, FOUR, bouncer to Pollard but unlike Harbhajan he does not miss it, it was hit well through square-leg and rushes away for a four

17.1

Bravo to Harbhajan Singh, FOUR, edged through the slips for a four, it was a very full delivery and he gets some bat at it, and it eludes Dhoni to his right

17.3

Bravo to Harbhajan Singh, FOUR, edged again and for a four too! it was an inside edge this time, he was looking to swing it away by stepping back, gets something on his bat and beats Dhoni to his left this time

17.4

Bravo to Harbhajan Singh, FOUR, what a shot, that's timed superbly from Harbhajan, it was fuller, outside the off stump and he jabs his bat down in time and gets it through point for a four...Dhoni runs across to have a word with his bowler while Tendulkar stands up and applauds the shot

17.6

Bravo to Pollard, FOUR, and now it's drilled down the ground for a four! was a length ball and Pollard throws his bat at it, easily beats the bowler and the deep fielders there for a four

2.5

Malinga to Bravo, FOUR, on a good length but this is a slower one too, Bravo wants to hit it over mid-on but the slowness of the pace makes him play it late and get it over square-leg for a four, was on his toes too

3.3

Johnson to Vijay, FOUR, slows the pace and down and that's been caressed through extra-cover for a four!

3.6

Johnson to Vijay, FOUR, on his pads and flicked away for a four, drifted down his pads and needed to get only some bat on it, does exactly that and gets a four!

4.1

Ojha to Bravo, FOUR, goes over mid-on and smacks it for a four! it was a decent delivery but the mid-on was up, inside the circle and he jumped on that and smashes it away

5.1

Dhawan to Bravo, FOUR, and up and over the mid-off fielder, it was a fuller one that and he strikes it off the middle of the bat, the fielder at mid-off was running back and jumps up, does not get a hand on it

13.1

Malinga to Dhoni, FOUR, shorter in length and on the pads and wow, what a shot, that's just tucked away gently and it rushes away through the backward square-leg region for a four

18.1

Malinga to Dhoni, FOUR, fuller ball and outside the off stump, he has gone back and slapped it over the bowler, bisects the long-on and long-off for a four

19.6
