2.1 to TE Albert, Dre Russ, runs back, tumbles and holds on! Holder is delighted and so are ADKR. Albert has been denied strike for a long time despite facing the first ball of the match. Looks to up the ante. Gets across to play the scoop pretty early. Holder aims for the yorker, dishes out a juicy full toss. Albert can only sky it high, got it off the sticker of the bat. Russell runs back from short fine leg, eyes on the ball, and hangs on. KKR's power coach showing everyone how it's done!. 4/2 13.2 to JM Cox, Pinned in front? Looks that way but Cox has reluctantly reviewed. He moves across for the scoop but Holder fired the very full ball on the stumps. Bat nowhere close to ball, three reds on ball-tracking, end of the 116-run partnership. 119/3 | ||||||||||
| 4 | 0 | 28 | 1 | 7.00 | 12 | 4 | 0 | 2 | 0 | |
1.2 to JL du Plooy, Charges down and holes out! Stellar catch from Garton and ADKR strike early. Full and swinging away outside off, du Plooy was really kept quiet by Holder. Wants to break free and attempts it on the first ball he faces against Ajay. A hint of swing away means he ends up slicing the ball than hitting it off the meat over cover. Garton covers good ground to his right from deep backward point, dives forward to pouch that. Capitals' opening partnership continues to be a worry.... 4/1 | ||||||||||

19.2 to Shayan Jahangir, Castled! Russell stands up in clutch to deny Jahangir a maiden T20 century. The perfect-est of yorkers on off. What better time than now to get it out. Jahangir looks to squeeze it out but only gets an inside edge back onto the stumps. He was a mere spectator to Powell's big hits for a few overs now, sad that he couldn't complete his milestone. Gets a hug from Powell and walks back to a standing ovation. 185/4 19.6 to MD Shanaka, Shanaka given out lbw and he reviews! A low full toss on leg, he looks to flick it across and is hit low on the back pad. Did he get an inside edge? Nope, three reds and that's that.. 196/5 | ||||||||||

2.4 to AD Hales, Huge appeal and he gets the umpire's nod! Willey gets Hales out for the 11th time in T20s. Another length ball, starts around off and goes further away. Hales is rooted to the crease and pokes at it. Gets the thinnest of edges and Jahangir does the rest. ADKR lose their first. 25/1 4.2 to SE Rutherford, Heaved away... straight to the man in the deep! Back of a length delivery, angling in. Rutherford picked the length early and looked to pull it over the leg side. Does not make the contact off the middle, and hits it straight to Haider at deep square leg. He cannot believe it and takes a long walk back to the dugout. 36/2 | ||||||||||

17.5 to JO Holder, Big hands Powell clasps his hands around that ball to take a smart, diving catch And that ends Holder's stay in the middle. Mustafizur bowls it full and outside off, Holder looks to smack it over long-off but holes out. 157/8 | ||||||||||

12.1 to SP Narine, Knocked him over! No heroics from Narine. Lands it on a length from around the stumps. Goes on with the angle. He looks to go inside out but is beaten on the inside because of the drift and sees the off stump pegged back. 98/6 | ||||||||||
| 4 | 0 | 34 | 3 | 8.50 | 10 | 1 | 3 | 1 | 0 | |
9.1 to PD Salt, A wicket first ball, Salamkheil has earned his Salt! Tossed up wrong'un on middle and off, he gets down on his knee to play the slog. Connects it well but straight to the lone man at deep midwicket. 73/4 11.5 to B McMullen, Leading edge and Mustafizur completes a diving catch. Wrong'un proves right for Salamkheil. Tossed up again, McMullen fails to pick it. He is also done in by the dip, and as a result, is never really to the pitch of it. Gets a top edge that short third runs around and gobbles up. 96/5 14.3 to A Sharafu, Salamkheil outfoxes Sharafu to bowl him! Sharafu backs away early to give himself room to access the off side, the shorter side. Salamkheil fires this one, perhaps a slider, in on a length on middle and leg. Beats the batter on the under-edge and bowls him. Gives him a long stare and a smile as Capitals have the game well in control. 111/7 | ||||||||||
