DPMD Jayawardene*	b Botha	13	13	2	0	100.00
4.1 amidthe talk about whether he's worth the big money, Botha strikes first ball, getting the massive wicket of Jayawardene, it was pitching on middle and going on with the angle, Jayawardene moved across and wanted to play it towards fine leg, it takes the thigh pad and rolls on to the stumps, a trifle unlucky there the batsman, hit the bottom of the thigh pad 28/2
VVS Laxman	run out (Dravid)	8	10	1	0	80.00
3.3 Watson to Jayawardene, Laxman is gone, run-out by Dravid, Jayawardene can't connect anywhere as well this time to a fullish ball, which dribbles towards backward point, a tight single is called for, never a good thing when Laxman is in the middle, Dravid gets a direct hit that catches Laxman more than a yard short 26/1
PA Patel†	st †Yagnik b Warne	32	34	2	0	94.11
15.4 Parthiv unwisely attempts the reverse-sweep after coming out of the crease, he doesn't connect, the keeper collects and Yagnik removes the bails in a jiffy, Parthiv's fighting cameo is over 90/5
BJ Hodge	b Warne	8	14	0	0	57.14
7.4 Instant impact from Warne, pitched on middle and scooted low, spun just past off, Hodge backed away and looked to slash that through cove, gets a bottom-edge and drags it on to the stumps, Rajasthan in charge here 42/3
RA Jadeja	c & b Warne	22	23	2	0	95.65

RV Gomez	c Watson b Trivedi	0	1	0	0	0.00
16.1 Kochi are crumbling, a length ball from Trivedi, Gomes wants to smash that over long-on, can't connect as well as he wants, and finds Watson waiting at long-on, Rajasthan get their sixth wicket, and it seems there will be no late onslaught 90/6
NLTC Perera	c Binny b Trivedi	1	4	0	0	25.00
16.6 and that's another one down for Kochi, a superb catch from Binny, Perera becomes another batsman holing out attempting a big hit, he can't get the distance either and Binny falls forward as he takes a low catch 92/7
KM Jadhav	c †Yagnik b Trivedi	5	9	0	0	55.55
19.5 outside off, and Trivedi gets a third wicket, nicked to the keeper, Jadhav's troubled stay is over 108/9
R Vinay Kumar	c Watson b Singh	5	4	1	0	125.00
17.5 Kochi doing a house-of-cards impersonation, batsman looks to cheekily dab the ball past short third man, hits it in the air to Watson fielding there, that's the fifth wicket in little more than two overs 98/8
M Muralitharan	not out	5	8	0	0	62.50

RP Singh	run out (Botha/†Yagnik)	1	1	0	0	100.00
