DA Warner	c †McCullum b Kallis	21	27	19	2	1	110.52
5.4 JH Kallis, the veteran, takes out the dangerous openers, Warner tried the same stroke over cover again, this time there was no width available even as he made room outside leg, and the ball bounced to take a thick edge to the keeper, Gambhir likes that, he is pumped 49/2
V Sehwag*	lbw b Kallis	23	17	9	3	1	255.55
3.3 Kallis has struck the big blow, Sehwag was in the crease after those two short balls, this one was a length delivery, he tried to work it on the leg side, missed, and that looked like hitting leg stump, the ball seemed to come in a bit after pitching as well 40/1
DPMD Jayawardene	run out (Gambhir)	30	45	27	3	1	111.11
12.4 Narine to Taylor, Mahela is gone this time, that was too tight a single to attempt, Taylor dropped a length ball behind point, Gautam was upto it quickly, fell forward and lobbed the ball along the ground for a direct hit, Mahela out by atleast a metre, while still on the ground, the KKR captain pumps his fists 95/3
LRPL Taylor	c Bhatia b Sangwan	16	44	27	0	0	59.25

Y Nagar	b Lee	10	13	7	1	0	142.85
16.6 and Lee's response is a stinging, slightly inswinging, yorker that uproots middle and leg stump as Nagar flails in vain 125/5
NV Ojha†	c Tiwary b Narine	2	9	6	0	0	33.33
19.1 goes for a slog, but only manages to hit it high in the air for long on to move to his right to take the catch 146/6
M Morkel	run out (Lee)	0	2	0	0	0	-
19.4 Narine to Nadeem, wickets tumbling this over, big Morne gone without facing a ball, Nadeem missed the carrom ball as he tried to sweep, appeal for lbw turned down, they went for the leg-bye, there was a direct hit at the striker's end, all Morne could do was take evasive action 152/8
S Nadeem	not out	0	2	2	0	0	0.00

VR Aaron	run out (†McCullum/Narine)	1	1	1	0	0	100.00
