tossed up full on middle and off. Prince plants his front foot and drills it towards long off

Chahal bags Badoni, and that will be that for a brilliant innings! Low full toss just outside off. Badoni, ambitiously, looks for the reverse but gets into an awkward tangle. The ball skews off the leading edge and Arshdeep does the rest at short third. Chahal finally gets himself on the board, and LSG will not be able to celebrate more Badoni boundaries tonight!

banged into the track outside off. Avesh gives himself an enormous amount of room and then shanks his swipe. Goes high up but enough to mid off's left

full and wide outside off. Badoni throws his hands at it and slices it towards deep backward point

another exceptional stroke! Misses the wide yorker by just a bit and that is enough for Badoni. He gets down on one knee early, having moved across, and sweeps it flat over the deep square leg fence!

back of a length outside off. Avesh gives himself room and swings from the hip. Toe-ends it down the ground to long on

streaky but they all count! And these runs are hurting PBKS now, in an NRR context! Bumper on leg stump. Avesh backs away and swings like a rusty gate. The ball flicks the top edge and races away

banged into the track on leg stump. Avesh has an agricutlural swipe at it and makes no contact, unsurprisingly

straight back at Jansen, and those bucket hands clasp around it! Hard length just outside off. Samad opens up his stance and hacks it towards the bowler. Jansen reacts in time and gets his hands in the right place, and once that happens, he usually makes the ball stick. Might have been a slower one which deceived Samad, adn he has to walk back after a 24-ball 45, which has certainly reduced the margin of defeat for LSG!

into the blockhole on middle and off. Badoni digs it out into the backward point region and picks up a run
