Al Hasan to A Finch, OUT! Finch is gone! Hyderabad are completely pumped up. Now they know they're in with a real chance. They know it. They know it. Big wicket, this. Tossed up outside off, Finch makes room and looks to go big downtown once more. Gets a lot of height on this, but not the required distance. Pandey is right at the rope at long on. He positions himself well, gets under the ball and takes it with a lovely reverse cup. 45 needed off 34 to win.
Al Hasan to A Finch, SIX! That's how to take the pressure off! Massive hit from Aaron Finch! It's tossed up, right in his arc, Finch gets his front leg out of the way and smokes it over long on for a maximum.
R Khan to M Tiwary, This time a shout for a caught behind! Shut down, good call from the umpire. Full outside off, Tiwary is down to sweep and gets it off the shoulder behind to first slip. No bat involved there. An eventful over from the leggie comes to an end.
R Khan to M Tiwary, Not out! Floated up in line of the stumps, Tiwary kneels down to sweep but misses and is rapped on the pads. Another big appeal, but it's turned down. Khan wants to review, he signals it, but his skipper says otherwise. Probably going over the stumps, as Saha indicates.
Ooooohhhh! How close. Rashid wanted the review but Saha and Williamson said no. Should they have taken it? Possibly height an issue? So close.
Manoj Tiwary walks in next.
R Khan to K Nair, OUT! Rashid Khan, you absolute beauty! He strikes again. What a ball! GAME ON. Tosses it up there, it's the googly and it spins back in. Catches Karun Nair on the front pad after going past the inside edge. Loud appeal, but this time the umpire raises his finger. 51 needed off 38. Punjab in some trouble here now.
R Khan to A Finch, Another shout! Nothing from the umpire again. Quicker and flatter on the stumps, Finch kneels down to sweep and gets it down towards short fine leg for a single.
R Khan to K Nair, Played down to long on to get off strike.
R Khan to K Nair, Bit quicker through the air outside off, Karun Nair looks to connect but misses.
Al Hasan to K Nair, Possibly an inside edge there? Only thing that would save him. Umpire signals runs so that's it. Nair gets low to sweep. There's a shout, but turned down as the ball hits the pads. Bit of an inside edge, it rolls away on the leg side and a single is taken.

Al Hasan to M Agarwal, OUT! Agarwal departs. Just throws away his wicket. Senseless shot to play at this time. The situation didn't demand it, just had to play sensible cricket. Tossed up on off, Agarwal looks to clear long on. Doesn't middle it one bit and it's straight down the throat of Manish Pandey positioned there. With this, Shakib has picked up 50 Indian T20 League wickets.
Shakib Al Hasan comes back on.

Rashid Khan returns to the attack.
S Kaul to K Nair, Fullish in length, in line of the stumps, wristed away through the square leg area. One run added to the total. Punjab need 60 to win in 54 balls.
S Kaul to M Agarwal, Hits the deck hard and pounds it in short, Agarwal rocks back to pull but the bounce gets too big on him. Mistimes it over the bowler's head and gets to the other end quickly.

Karun Nair will be the new man in.
B Thampi to C Gayle, OUT! Thampi strikes! What a big moment for him and for Hyderabad as well. The dangerous Chris Gayle departs. Back of a length on middle, Gayle looks to pull and gets a top edge which lobs over towards the short leg region. Thampi himself runs to the ball, calls for it and takes the catch with ease in the end. Both openers now back in the hut.
B Thampi to M Agarwal, On a good length in the channel outside off, Agarwal cuts it fine, down to third man for an easy run.
