    7.5 here comes the first wicket! It was a poor choice of shot from Rahane. He stays on the back foot and tries to work the length delivery away to the leg side but it just comes in a touch to beat the inside edge and strike above the knee roll. Would have hit the top of the stumps 40/1

    38.5 Kohli has been run out, he is disgusted, smashes his bat into the ground, walks off in a huff, stares back at Rohit, it was a mishit of a slog in front of long on, fielder charged in for the catch, it bounced in front, but he did well to keep it from going past him, the throw came in to the keeper and there was no way Kohli would have made it, he was keen for the second, started, but hesitated as he saw the throw come in, but Rohit had almost reached him by then, can't really blame Rohit there 261/3

    40.2 fine catch by Mahela Jayawardene running in and tumbling forward from sweeper cover, Raina had made room and swiped this length ball over cover, it hung in the air for a while, and Jayawardene came in quickly 276/4

    0.3 and already a wicket. This is short and wide, ripe for a cut, but Perera looks to pull it, gets a healthy top edge, and Karn Sharma takes a simple catch at mid-on 0/1

    9.4 Raina is flying at short cover again, and he is coming up with balls in hand. Short of a length, around off, Dilshan looks to work this to leg but is early into the shot. The leading edge goes to the right of short cover, but not beyond the reach of Raina's dive 48/4

    5.6 another wicket down. That man at short cover does it. Binny has done well whenever he has pitched the ball up. This is a teasing length. Not the driving length, but it teases Chandimal, who ends up pushing at it well in front of his body. Easy catch for Raina at short cover 31/2

    8.2 Mahela doesn't look happy with this, but this is a pretty good decision. Yadav is full and straight, Jayawardene is deep in the crease, and plays across its line. This looks good to hit leg stump as it has hit his pad in front of middle and leg and doesn't have too far to travel 42/3

    28.5 lovely stumping by Uthappa. Mathews is down the wicket again, Patel pulls the length back, Mathews tries to defend, is hit on the inside edge, the ball ricochets to Uthappa, who gets a good bounce, and completes the stumping 166/5

    43.1 he switch-hits to his demise. They have ended 13 runs short of Rohit Sharma's score. This match was over long ago. The final touch is provided by this switch hit straight to what would have been deep cover had he played as a right-hand batsman 251/10
