Sundar stays deep in his crease and bends low by reaching out for it. He generates just enough power to slice it over and clear the small boundary at deep third. |
| 1 | 19.2 | 19.2: Mukesh Choudhary to Jos Buttler, Low full outside off, Buttler carves it away to deep point for just a single. |
| 4 | 19.1 | 19.1: Mukesh Choudhary to Jos Buttler, FOUR! Buttler at his very best! Mukesh serves it full and around off. Jos Buttler sees mid on in the circle and hammers it over the fielder for a boundary. Didn't quite get the connection from the middle, but he just had to clear the in-field and he did so nicely. |
| 0 | 18.6 | 18.6: Anshul Kamboj to Jos Buttler, Full and around leg, Jos Buttler misses his flick as the ball goes off his pads towards square leg. A leg bye is taken.

Rahul drills it down to long off and calls for a single. The ball bullets away to Gaikwad who is quick to pick and releases a direct hit to the bowling end with Tewatia forced to slide his bat in. The CSK players are confident and start celebrating. The replay shows that Tewatia is caught just short of his crease. He comes and goes. |
| 0 | 18.2 | 18.2: Anshul Kamboj to Sai Sudharsan, OUT! CAUGHT EASILY! Something for Kamboj to celebrate in an otherwise expensive outing. Anshul bowls it very full and outside the off stump. Sai crouches his back knee a bit and tries to thump it down the ground, but fails to get under the ball. Hits it off the toe end of the bat and sails it straight into the hands of Dewald Brevis at long off. Brevis takes it comfortably with a reverse cup in front of his face. Sai Sudharsan's fun ends on a well-compiled 84. GT are 207/2, 10 balls left. |
| 6 | 18.1 | 18.1: Anshul Kamboj to Sai Sudharsan, SIX! Goodness me, he has got the distance and how! Kamboj keeps feeding miles outside off and it is the full toss as well.

| 1 | 17.4 | 17.3: Gurjapneet Singh to Jos Buttler, Good deceptive slower bouncer at just 100.5 kph. Short and outside off. Buttler moves outside off and tries to fetch that for a pull shot, but inside edges it to the square leg region for a single. So far, so good by Gurjapneet. |

| 0 | 15.7 | 15.6: Anshul Kamboj to Sai Sudharsan, Fair delivery! Keeps it away from the hitting arc of the batter, wide outside off, almost a yorker. Sai bends and reaches out for it, trying to carve it over point, but misses. It is not called a wide and Sudharsan sends it upstairs for a review. The replay shows that the wide guideline remains as it, as Sai hasn't moved across at the point of release. The ball stays within the line. GT lose the review. |
7 Over | Run: 173/1 | Run Rate: 10.81
| 6 | 15.6 | 15.5: Anshul Kamboj to Sai Sudharsan, SIX! This is just effortless batting! A half volley, outside off.

Just for a brief moment, Matthew Short looks in the game, but watches it fly well over. |
| 1 | 15.5 | 15.4: Anshul Kamboj to Jos Buttler, Goes for the wide yorker to the right-hander, outside off. Jos Buttler extends his arms and takes it on the full, hitting it uppishly, but to the left of cover for a single. |

| 6 | 8.3 | 8.3: Anshul Kamboj to Sai Sudharsan, SIX! Sails just over the fielder! Kamboj keeps it short and on top of middle and leg. Sai Sudharsan weighs on the back foot and pulls it just over the deep backward square leg fielder for half a dozen more. These two are just enjoying out there in the middle. |

Gill gets down on a knee and slog sweeps it using his wrists and dumps it behind the deep mid-wicket fence. Gill raises the bat calmly and acknowledges the cheer and applause from the crowd and his teammates. He means business tonight. |
