Deccan Chargers innings (20 overs maximum)		R	M	B	4s	6s	SR
KC Sangakkara*	b Balaji	12	23	15	1	0	80.00
5.5 Sanga has charged for the last time tonight, makes room outside leg as he leaves the crease to have another swipe, misses the fullish delivery which takes out middle 37/1
S Dhawan	c Das b Bhatia	50	76	50	4	1	100.00
15.4 and now he's gone, another build-up wasted by Dhawan, he gets a full toss, goes after it, and finds deep midwicket 100/4
PA Patel†	run out (Kallis/Bhatia)	23	31	19	2	0	121.05
11.3 from Bhatia, Parthiv is walking off in disgust, shaking his head, Dhawan had turned down a few second runs earlier, this time he was right in turning the second down, but Parthiv was already halfway up the pitch after driving to sweeper cover, the throw was on target to Bhatia, who took the bails off before the ball slipped out of his hands 81/2
CL White	c Das b Lee	10	13	9	1	0	111.11
14.1 White is gone, goes for the pull to a sharp short delivery, is hurried into the stroke, and deep square leg runs to his left to take a well-judged catch 95/3
JP Duminy	not out	16	30	15	1	0	106.66

IR Jaggi	c McCullum b Narine	3	9	7	0	0	42.85
17.4 another one goes, he left the crease more in hope than anything else, it was the carrom ball, and he could only mishit it for long off to come in and settle underneath it 109/5
Ankit Sharma	c Gambhir b Balaji	1	5	2	0	0	50.00
18.3 that is a very fine take from Gambhir in the end, Ankit edges a slog high in the air over cover off a slower one, Gambhir was under it, but misjudged it as it came down away from him, he reached out and somehow managed to hold on as he tumbled to the ground 113/6
DW Steyn	c Tiwary b Narine	7	4	3	0	1	233.33
19.2 Narine bowls it wider of the batsman this time, Steyn has to reach out as he advances out again, long on dives forward to take the mishit 121/7
A Mishra	not out	1	2	1	0	0	100.00

Kolkata Knight Riders innings (target: 127 runs from 20 overs)		R	M	B	4s	6s	SR
BB McCullum	lbw b Steyn	10	13	9	1	0	111.11
2.5 he is gone this time, that stayed low, it pitched short of a length, McCullum was in the mood to pull, but ended up swinging above the ultimate path of the ball, which crashed into the back leg, right in front, did not seem to be a slower one, done in by the pitch then 16/1
G Gambhir*	c Sangakkara b Anand Rajan	30	48	28	4	0	107.14
9.5 and once again, Gambhir has thrown away an in-control innings, nothing delivery, pitched up outside off, he comes forward and drives it in the air straight to mid off 64/3
MS Bisla†	b Mishra	10	19	13	2	0	76.92
6.6 bowled 'em! that has skidded and straightened from a good length and crashed into middle, Bisla caught on the crease, had a waft at it but was beaten as it rushed on 44/2
JH Kallis	c †Patel b Steyn	23	46	24	2	0	95.83
16.2 Steyn wins the battle with his South Africa team-mate, he roars, Kallis pushes hard and straight at the pitched up delivery, it moves away slightly, another outside edge, not as thick as the previous one, and settles into the keeper's gloves 105/5
YK Pathan	b Ankit Sharma	6	4	4	0	1	150.00
10.4 he's gone, surely KKR are not going to mess up another middling chase? similar length to the one he clobbered for six, but the line is on the stumps, Yusuf decides even this one has to disappear in the same area, has a slog at it, misses, and the ball crashes into middle 72/4
