IPL 2022, GT vs LSG Highlights: Gujarat Titans beat Lucknow Super Giants by 5 wickets

Mohammed Shami to Manish Pandey, Back of a length, on middle. Manish Pandey hops and tucks it to square leg for a single. 

Mohammed Shami to Quinton de Kock, OUT! TIMBER! First KL Rahul and now Quinton de Kock. Mohammed Shami with a dream spell here. He is elated and Lucknow have lost both their openers early. Good-length ball from Shami, swinging in from outside off. Quinton de Kock is completely beaten by that and the ball goes through his defences to shatter the stumps. The last one nipped away and this nipped in and Quinton de Kock had no answers. 

Mohammed Shami to Quinton de Kock, MISFIELD AND FOUR! Length ball, outside off. Quinton de Kock looks to drive it on the up. The ball goes off the outside edge to third man. Lockie Ferguson there lets the ball go through his hands and allows a boundary. That would hurt Mohammed Shami. Should have been just a single!

Mohammed Shami to Quinton de Kock, Good-length ball, outside off, shaping away. Quinton de Kock looks to smack it over mid off but fails to connect. 

Varun Aaron to Quinton de Kock, Back of a length, on off. Quinton de Kock looks to punch. The ball goes off the inside edge past the stumps to short fine leg for a single. 

Varun Aaron to Quinton de Kock, On a good length, on off, at 141.5 kph. Quinton de Kock defends it towards covers with an angled bat. 

Slight halt in play. There seems to be some problem near the bowler's landing area. The groundsman is out with some sawdust.

Varun Aaron to Evin Lewis, On a length, on middle. Evin Lewis looks to hammer it once again. This time though he drags it to deep mid-wicket only for a single. 

Varun Aaron to Evin Lewis, FOUR! First boundary of the innings for Lucknow! Length ball drifting on the pads, Evin Lewis swivel-pulls it to fine leg and finds the boundary. A well-controlled shot from the southpaw!

Varun Aaron to Quinton de Kock, On the fuller side again, at 132 clicks, on middle. Quinton de Kock flicks it through mid-wicket for a single. 

Varun Aaron to bowl from the other end.

Varun Aaron to Quinton de Kock, Fuller in length, wide outside off. Quinton de Kock goes for the drive but drags it back to the bowler off the inner half. 

Mohammed Shami to Evin Lewis, Short of a length, on off. Evin Lewis goes for the pull shot but does not time it well at all. He was a bit early on that and gets hit on the body. A terrific first over from Mohammed Shami. A wicket of KL Rahul and just 2 runs off it. 

Mohammed Shami to Evin Lewis, Length ball, on off. Evin Lewis works it to backward square leg and gets off the mark with a single. 

Mohammed Shami to KL Rahul, OUT! CAUGHT BEHIND! What a start from Mohammed Shami! Good-length ball, on the fourth stump channel. The ball moves away late and sharply from KL Rahul. He covers the line and tries to block it with a dead bat but gets beaten by the swing. The ball goes past the outside edge and carries through to Matthew Wade. The Gujarat team is very excited and appeal for catch but the umpire is unmoved. Mohammed Shami was very adamant that he has got his man and convinces Hardik Pandya to opt for the review. Replay rolls in and UltraEdge catches a spike indeed. Clear deflection there and KL Rahul has to depart for a golden duck. A dream start for Gujarat. 

Review! Hardik Pandya has opted for a review for caught behind! Some movement early on for Mohammed Shami and Gujarat think that KL Rahul has nicked it. The UltraEdge rolls in and it shows that there is a clear spike as the ball passes the bat. The on-field decision needs to be overturned!

Mohammed Shami to Evin Lewis, In the channel outside off, fuller. Evin Lewis prods and defends. 

Mohammed Shami to Quinton de Kock, Hits the good length, on off. Quinton de Kock taps it to cover and sets off for a single. The fielder there has a shy at the striker's end but misses. Lucknow would not want to lose another wicket here.
