Jordan to Stoinis, FOUR, Stoinis keeps BLR hearts pounding. What a shot! Ventured to the leg-side as everyone in the off-side, save long off, was up in the ring. Then drills a half-volley from middle stump through the covers
18.3 -
Watson to Stoinis, FOUR, full toss, full toss, and it's been put in the grave! Stoinis backs away and carves it past backward point. Skimmed off the turf
18.0 -
Jordan to Stoinis, FOUR, oh yes, brilliant! Much needed boundary this as it keeps the equation in their favour. Stoinis is quickly into position for the scoop, bends across off and laps the full ball over short fine

Jordan to Behardien, FOUR, don't look at Kohli. Just don't. He'd kill you with just a glare. Short and wide outside off, Behardien cuts it smoothly through the point region, Head gets there from deep cover and lets it through his hands. Oh dear!

Chahal to Vijay, FOUR, what was that! This is like a candidate failing a driving test in India. Never happens. Vijay, for once, pulls out the reverse sweep. And the shortish length helps his cause. Biffs it past short third man
15.2 -
Chahal to Vijay, FOUR, oh stop doing this already! Too many poor balls. A rank bad long-hop on leg-stump, Vijay bends his knees and whacks it past a diving short fine leg
14.5 -
Aaron to Vijay, FOUR, he is able to find the boundary off most overs. This one shouldn't have crossed the ropes though. Not after Jordan did all the hard work by getting there with a dive, but it sneaks through. Low full toss outside off which is drilled hard by Vijay and gets to the fence
13.5 -
I Abdulla to Vijay, FOUR, back to back boundaries! Slightly more air on this one but it's too full. Vijay drills a punch straight of long-on and it simply rockets off his bat. One bounce and over the ropes
13.4 -
I Abdulla to Vijay, FOUR, not at all what Vijay intended, but who cares. Abdulla fires this one wider, and Vijay tries to fetch it with a massive slog. He's nowhere near it but the resultant outside edge zooms away past short third man
12.5 -
Jordan to Vijay, FOUR, the second boundary off the Jordan over. His induction into the T20 League is certainly not going as per plan. A rough couple of games now. It might be speaking too soon though as he still has a couple of overs. Anyway, he bowls this one full on the pads and is flicked past square leg with those rubber wrists
12.1 -
Jordan to Vijay, FOUR, he's picked his spot there, over mid-off. Looked like he decided beforehand that the ball needs to go there no matter what the length. Clears his front leg to a good length delivery and lifts it through the line. Such a true surface
9.1 -
I Abdulla to Vijay, FOUR, that's from the refrigerator of awesomeness. Sees the loop on this one, skips down whilst making room and chips this over extra cover
6.1 -
Aaron to W Saha, FOUR, mediocres this with width again, Saha slices the cut and pipes it well wide of third man
6.0 -
Watson to Vijay, FOUR, lovely shot. Stepped aside to make room for this length ball, opened the bat face - serenely again. What else do you use for a Monk? - and punches it behind backward point
4.5 -
Chahal to Amla, FOUR, slightly short, slightly turning away and Amla opened his punch to loft it between backward point and cover-point
4.0 -
Binny to Vijay, FOUR, someone get hold of those wrists. Fullish delivery outside off, lured Vijay with a shuffle and then it was awesomeness. Brought his bat down and clubbed it through wide mid-on
2.5 -
Jordan to Vijay, FOUR, shot! Vijay, you gentle bully boy! Just a tame short of length delivery, pings off the surface quick and Vijay picks it up across the line. Just a swat and it just bounced inside the cow corner fence to rob him off a six. Mohali's big ground, you butcher!
2.2 -
Jordan to Vijay, FOUR, that's a bad ball. Short and wide, Vijay doesn't even move. Should have. Manages to loft it off the toe-end and it has enough legs to swoop to the deep cover fences
1.1 -
Chahal to Amla, FOUR, drifts this across, the ball slides on to make it worse and Amla manages to tickle this to the fine leg fence

Watson to Vijay, out Caught by Chahal!! Here's the opportunity, here's the opportunity .. and Chahal makes no mistake at deep square leg. Banged in short by Watson, might have rolled his fingers across as it seemed to have held up on Vijay's heave. It causes him to mistime it in the air. Chahal sees it all the way and awkwardly cups it in front of his chest before tumbling down. Vijay c Chahal b Watson 89(57) [4s-12 6s-1]
11.0 -
Chahal to D Miller, out Stumped!! Chahal is on fire here. Another stumping. He cleverly drifts this one well wide of off, and draws Miller forward and across. Miller has to lunge out for it in the end and his back foot is dragged out of the crease. The ball simply skids on, beats the outside edge and presents an easy stumping to Rahul, who makes no mistake this time. Two in two! This changes things. D Miller st Rahul b Chahal 0(1)
10.5 -
Chahal to W Saha, out Run Out!! Saha has missed one after coming down the track, and Rahul fails to collect cleanly (missed out on a stumping chance). But has he made up for it in time? Oh yes he has. But wait a minute. From the side-on replays it's clear that the ball popped out of his gloves and knocked into the grille of the helmet. But as the third umpire points out correctly, the appeal is not for a catch so the run out is STILahore ON. Yes. Saha has to go. In looking for a big hit, he yorked himself. So nearly got away with it, but not to be. Rahul redeems himself. W Saha run out (Rahul) 16(13) [4s-1]
5.3 -
Watson to Amla, out Caught by Binny!! Save the date. Amla is out to a Watson bouncer. He looked ready for it surprisingly. Was on the back foot, slapped a pull straightaway but didn't roll his wrists. Binny timed his hop at mid-wicket and caught it. Amla c Binny b Watson 21(20) [4s-2]
