Mohit Sharma	5	2	11	1	2.20	26	2	0	0	0
6.1 to KL Rahul, And finally Mohit got his reward. That's a well directed bouncer from the bowler, onto his body, Rahul rocks back and tries to pull it over the square leg region, a bit late onto his shot and a top edge went towards Dhawan, moves a bit to his right and took it comfortably. 23/1
Siddarth Kaul	5	2	13	1	2.60	26	3	0	0	0
9.4 to A Mukund, knocked him out! good length delivery, pitched outside off and he gets that back into him. Mukund gets forward and tries to flick it through square leg, kept a bit low and he was a bit early onto it and played it all-around, went through his bat and pad and hit the middle stump. 33/2
