Yuvraj scythes this one through point, waited on it and put it away, that will be it, Pune begin the IPL on a winning note

sees Yuvraj backing away outside leg and bowls it outside off, but very wide

looks to finish it with another swing on the leg side, but cannot connect this time

Robbie in to the act, that;s what you do for dropping them dollies, you pay dearly, marginally short, and Uthappa swings it with the angle, way over deep midwicket, all timing

now he pinches a single in front of cover

Yuvi, just a tad short, that will do it, stands tall, and lifts it over long on, all the way

Uthappa gets adventurous, waltzes down the track, this one gets big on him, but he manages to pull it to deep midwicket

backs away and slaps a length ball to sweeper cover

trouble for Punjab, Uthappa launches a fuller one over mid on, timing it so well that it carries over the ropes, simple and effective

and Uthappa makes Punjab pay for the drop, lovely straight drive, full face of the bat, and the ball races down the ground

driven with good timing to mid on

dropped atrocious stuff from Punjab, another drop, this time it is dinesh, Yuvraj went for the big drive on the knee, got the outside edge but Karthik put down a simple chance at slip

too full on middle and leg, flicked along the ground in front of square

moves in a tad from middle stump, he gets an inside edge as he pushes half-forward uncertainly, Nayar has bowled well

close to off and back of a length, he stays in the crease and punches it to sweeper cover

punched away in to the off side

another one on the pads, this one is bowled wide of the crease and Yuvraj cannot turn it away with the angle going past him

better line outside off, played away to point off the back foot

on the pads, Yuvraj flicks fine and gets four for the neat effort

driven off the front foot to sweeper cover
