BOWLING	O	M	R	W	ECON	0s	4s	6s	WD	NB
Trent Boult	3	0	29	1	9.66	6	5	0	0	0
18.3 to MD Shanaka, hoicked high into the off side, taken on the rope! Shanaka experiences a failure to launch, looking for the big hit at the death. Made room and got under it but picks out the sweeper at deep cover. First of the night for Boult. 141/7
Jordan Thompson	3	0	20	1	6.66	6	2	0	0	0
19.3 to OP Stone, chipped down the ground - taken! A fine running effort from long-on, Waseem the fielder diving forward and coming up with the ball. Capitals in danger of getting bowled out here. 144/8
Dwayne Bravo	2	0	22	1	11.00	6	4	0	4	0
10.2 to T Banton, clobbered leg side... straight to the man on the fence! Bravo gets another with his wobblers. Banton was set but couldn't time this, dragged across the ball due to lack of pace and Boult pockets the catch cool as you like at deep midwicket. 91/2
Vijayakanth Viyaskanth	4	0	23	2	5.75	12	3	0	0	0
13.2 to Sikandar Raza, Raza makes room, cleaned up! Too quick for him, hits the top of off stump, Raza's a goner. No heroics from him tonight. Viyaskanth strikes with a flat legbreak, MIE chipping away. 117/4 15.1 to BR Dunk, another one goes, slog-swept straight to deep midwicket! Dunk goes kerplunk and Capitals lose their sixth wicket. Viyaskanth celebrates a second of the night. Tossed up and heaved down the throat of Thompson, who is safe as houses out there. 131/6
Dan Mousley	4	0	22	2	5.50	11	2	0	0	0
12.3 to JL du Plooy, bowled him, leg stump out of the ground! Mousley celebrates gleefully. Fired in fast and flat from round the wicket, topples the timber with du Plooy looking to make room. MIE need a few more of those. 116/3 14.1 to SW Billings, holes out to long-off! Mousley has another, Billings departs looking to force the pace. Speared in and he jumped out to meet it but then couldn't get the elevation he needed to clear Bravo in the deep. 121/5
Waqar Salamkheil	4	0	29	1	7.25	8	3	0	1	0
9.2 to MDE Holden, hit in front, given! Holden planted the front foot and missed with a slog-sweep, looked pretty plumb... but he eventually signals for a review of Akbar Ali's decision. Pitched on off and straightened into the pad. Holden has had one look and is already walking... No inside edge, ball-tracking has the ball going on to clonk middle. Salamkheil gets a much-needed breakthrough for MIE. 88/1

BOWLING	O	M	R	W	ECON	0s	4s	6s	WD	NB
Scott Kuggeleijn	4	0	25	1	6.25	14	2	1	3	0
2.2 to MDKJ Perera, Kusal goes, dragged on! Capitals have missed a few chances already, but Kuggeleijn makes the breakthrough. Short outside off, he frees the arms but only succeeds in cannoning an inside edge down into the timbers. 21/1
Olly Stone	4	0	36	1	9.00	10	3	1	2	0
19.3 to DJ Bravo, timbeeeeeeeerrrrrrr! Full and straight, 136kph and cleans him up as Bravo makes room looking for the big hit. Middle stump plucked out of the ground, and Capitals are set to pluck the points, too. 125/8
Haider Ali	4	0	16	3	4.00	9	0	0	0	0
4.6 to Muhammad Waseem, bowled him, off stump flattened! Haider hits the mark with a 108kph delivery that skids through under Waseem's attempted slog. Dirty heave across the line and the stump goes for a walk. As does Waseem. 50/2 8.5 to DR Mousley, advances, slaps straight to long-off! Mousley doesn't get the connection and it's catching practice for Banton in the deep (and he holds this one). Another MIE batter trudges off and Capitals hopes of finishing in the top four are rising again. 62/4 15.5 to ADS Fletcher, excited lbw appeal from the bowler, Billings goes for the review. Let's see what DRS says... Skidding on with the arm, beats Fletcher on the inside and hits the back pad. Struck in line and this is smashing leg stump! Akbar Ali has to reverse his decision, Haider has made the breakthrough for Capitals. Big, big wicket as the chase gets tight. 105/6
Zahir Khan	4	0	23	2	5.75	10	0	1	0	0
7.3 to CG Benjamin, straightens into the front pad, big appeal... not given by Akbar Ali but Capitals review. Turn and bounce, takes the pad and then the inside edge of the bat. Was it spinning too much? Pitched on leg, hit him in line - and it's three reds! Would have rattled leg stump, Benjamin has to go. Zahir the super sub makes an immediate impact. 59/3 9.5 to KA Pollard, chipped back to the bowler! Zahir has the big man! Zahir is off and running again, no doubt this time. Another googly and he just pokes it in the air for a straightforward low catch to the bowler's right. MIE lose their skipper, and maybe with him the game. 71/5
Sikandar Raza	4	0	23	1	5.75	5	0	0	2	0
16.1 to JA Thompson, full and trapped on the pad, given! Billings much happier with this delivery! Flat offbreak slides into the front leg with Thompson playing across it. Straightforward decision for Ruchira Palliyaguruge and Capitals are closing in. 106/7
