Not the usual Oakland wicket; this one had a lot of juice and offered plenty of assistance to both pacers and spinners. TSK exploited the conditions brilliantly, picking up wickets at regular intervals and making light work of the task at hand. The top three didn't even reach double figures. Aaron Jones showed some resistance but fell after a run-a-ball 17. Nothing much else to talk about really; just an abject surrender with the bat. A supreme bowling performance, though from TSK, didn't let them get off the hook at any stage. Zia-ul-Haq started the rot by triggering a storm, claiming the key wickets of Warner, Klaasen and Raza. Burger foxed Mayers, Taylor, and Jasdeep while Noor was bowling ripping, gripping, shaking, and troubling leg-breaks and googlies to dismiss Nayak, Harmeet and McCoy. Stoinis held up his end of the bargain and it was all too easy for the Kings, who were clearly the far better side in every department today. Faf du Plessis must be a very happy chappy, mighty pleased with his team's performance. A big boost to their NRR too, which could prove crucial in the later stages of the tournament

13.5
W
Burger to Jasdeep, OUT

Goes fuller and slants across off, tries to thump it over long-on and finds the fielder at long-on, didn't get under it fully and mistimed the lofty shot. Lowest score ever in Major League Cricket as TSK cruise to victory with an utterly domineering show!

Burger to Jasdeep, 1 wide

Mean bumper around the line off, keeps low and keeps his bonce away from the line, well it's been deemed too short and adjudicated as a wide

Dug in short and outside off, plonks a pull towards midwicket, he doesn't wanna die wondering

Noor Ahmad to Waqar, no run

floated up and it pitches on a fuller length on middle, protects his pads by whipping it to short backward square, tried around the wicket angle. Lovely spell comes to an end , 3/18, stellar work as usual from a highly dexterous leg-spinner

12.5
Noor Ahmad to Waqar, no run

Looped up, landed on a length and turns into leg-stump, played with spin to vacant short leg area, keeper gathers the ball quickly

12.4
Noor Ahmad to Waqar, no run

slip in place waiting earnestly for an edge. Tossed up on a length and holds its line outside off, attempted drive, beats his outside edge

pushed on a length at middle and leg, clipped around the corner

12.2
Noor Ahmad to Jasdeep, no run

searing wrong'un almost disturbed the off-stump pole, beats his attempted slog sweep

12.1
Noor Ahmad to Jasdeep, no run

Can Noor wrap it up in this over?

Comes over the wicket

Slightly short on middle and leg, late on the flick and the ball ricochets off the pads behind square on off

1
Burger to Jasdeep, 1 run

Around the wicket, fraction short and angling back from outside off, slams a pull to deep square region, man stationed there

11.4
Burger to Jasdeep, no run

Ouch, that looks nasty! Mean short one got big on him, doesn't have the prowess to deal with it, hits him near the helmet apparently as he tried a pull, physio is out for a concussion check, looks okay but there will be a pause owing to the protocol

11.3
Burger to Jasdeep, no run

Touch short and strays on the pads, smears it away to deep backward square's right

11.2
Burger to Jasdeep, no run

Bit short and veering away in the channel, swing and a miss

Over the wicket, fraction short on middle and leg, hits it with gusto in the gap in front of midwicket, disdainfully done

W
Noor Ahmad to McCoy, OUT

Doesn't matter because Noor bowls a beauty on middle, tenderises his pads and elicits an lbw appeal, was a belated attempt to ask for a review, ran out of time in the end. On the second look, it was leg-sidish and would have been interesting had he reviewed it, ball spun back quite sharply from a length on off

Noor Ahmad to Jasdeep, 1 bye

Over the wicket again, beautiful googly spinning across off, goes for an ambitious pull, doesn't connect, keeper can't get his hand to it. Two fielders run back, hunted down and keeper got an awkward bounce, throw was very full, could have been a run-out had he picked it neatly
