- BATSMENRB4s6sSR19.6 Has he broken the toe? What a lovely yorker, tailing in late, beats Gayle's bat, gets him on the back toe, Gayle is limping for a leg-bye. Umpire Hazare adds insult to injury, giving him lbw when the ball is sliding down. Hazare won't want this to go close - this one leg-bye could be crucial in the end 155/310.6 and Bhaj has done his Dada in! slows the pace down again, flighted outside leg, the break beats Ganguly's waft, and out goes the middle stump 70/119.2 this time he makes room and gets outside the line, Zak bowls the same delivery and he misses it, and is bowled 152/2Extras15 (b 6, lb 3, w 6)TOTAL155/3 (20 Overs, RR: 7.75)Fall of wickets: 1-70 (SC Ganguly, 10.6 ov), 2-152 (OA Shah, 19.2 ov), 3-155 (CH Gayle, 19.6 ov)

- BATSMENRB4s6sSR6.5 that's a wicket against the run of the play, Dhawan jumps down the track, looking to chip him over short midwicket, but doesn't get enough elevation and Ganguly takes a sharp overhead catch 61/113.6 Ganguly takes a second good catch off the night! Tiwary is looking extra cover but it is too short for the shot, and he ends up seemingly lobbing it over Dada at short extra, but he times the jump to perfection and pulls off a one-handed stunner 117/215.5 and Pollard has followed up a nice shot with a daft one, plays all across the line of a length delivery, Ishant is full and straight at the right time, and collects a plumb lbw verdict 129/3Extras4 (w 4)TOTAL156/3 (18.3 Overs, RR: 8.43)Fall of wickets: 1-61 (S Dhawan, 6.5 ov), 2-117 (SS Tiwary, 13.6 ov), 3-129 (KA Pollard, 15.5 ov)
