A Mishra to D Miller, Mishra starts with a back of a length delivery on off, Miller punches it to mid off for a single.

STRATEGIC BREAK. It's been an explosive beginning from Chris Gayle but in the process, he has lost two partners as well. Delhi will be satisfied with the way things have progressed so far but with Gayle in the middle, they just cannot afford to relax. Let's wait and watch how the next half pans out.

I Sharma to C Gayle, A back of a length delivery on middle, CG plays it to covers. End of the Powerplay, Punjab have raced to 50 but Delhi have also picked up 2 wickets.

I Sharma to C Gayle, Ishant makes a comeback with a short delivery on middle and leg. Gayle pulls it to mid-wicket.

I Sharma to C Gayle, FOUR! The Gateway of India at the Kotla. Prithvi Shaw the culprit. Outside off, on a length, Gayle punches this through cover and point. Shaw dives to his right but is late and the ball sneaks through.

I Sharma to C Gayle, A length delivery on off angling away for Gayle. Chris Gayle lets it go.

I Sharma to C Gayle, Full on middle and leg, Gayle blocks it.

I Sharma to C Gayle, Fuller delivery by Ishant Sharma. Gayle plays it towards the point region.

Change of ends for Ishant. 2-0-15-0 so far.

K Rabada to D Miller, LUCKY FOUR! Full and speared into the batsman at 151 kph, Miller brings his bat down to keep it out but it takes the inside edge and runs wide of short fine leg for a boundary. Spoils a wicket maiden for Kagiso. Still, a very impressive over by the South African.

David Miller time.

K Rabada to M Agarwal, OUT! Four dot balls and Mayank succumbs under pressure. Very ordinary from the young man. He looked quite restless during his short stay. Sometimes you need to respect the rhythm of the bowler, if not the bowler. Sharp delivery, it's banged into the batsman, Agarwal stays back to play the pull shot but is hurried on by the pace. Ends up towering it in the air off the top edge and Sherfane Rutherford runs forward and across from cover-point to complete the catch. Two early blows inside the Powerplay for Punjab.

K Rabada to M Agarwal, Pushed to the cover region by the batsman. No run.

K Rabada to M Agarwal, Play normal cricket, Mayank. Rabada clocks 147.8 kph this time. On a good length and it's skidding off the surface, Agarwal tries to play late but misses. Offering a straight bat is a better option against this bowler.

K Rabada to M Agarwal, Play and a miss! Not a good shot selection from Agarwal. Rabada is not a club level bowler. A pacey delivery, on a back of a length around off, Agarwal steps back to smash it over the bowler's head but misses.

K Rabada to M Agarwal, Starts with a length ball on off, Agarwal covers the angle and defends it to the off side.

Kagiso Rabada to bowl now.

S Lamichhane to C Gayle, FOUR! 16 from the over and Gayle is roaring now. A googly on the shorter side outside off, Chris camps back and muscles his punch shot through cover-point.
