S Lamichhane to C Gayle, FOUR! Lamichhane is definitely feeling the pressure. Lets out a fuller length ball down the leg side, Gayle whips it across the line and sends it to the fine leg fence in no time.
S Lamichhane to C Gayle, Stays on the back foot and punches the googly to covers.
S Lamichhane to C Gayle, FOUR! Drilled down the ground! Too full in length and on middle, Gayle clears his front leg and bludgeons it back past the bowler. Probably it brushed Lamichhane's hands but it's travelling and there is no way he will catch those. Will still go down as a dropped catch though.
S Lamichhane to C Gayle, A flatter googly on middle, Gayle lunges and defends it back.
S Lamichhane to C Gayle, FOUR! Wrong line from Sandeep and Gayle has not spared him. Short and down the leg side, further spinning down, Gayle turns inside the crease and pulls it behind square leg for a boundary.
I Sharma to C Gayle, Lands it on a length and on the pads, Gayle pushes it off his pads towards mid on. Seeing that Amit Mishra is very lazy in going after the ball, Sharma himself sets off. The batsmen still take a run. 12 from the over, 23 in the last two. Punjab pressing forward now.
I Sharma to C Gayle, SIX! Into the night sky! The monster has decided to get going now. A knuckle delivery by Ishant but the line and length is not quite there. It's around off and Gayle opens his arms to dismiss it over long on for a maximum. 101m on the radar!
I Sharma to C Gayle, FOUR! Cheeky! Ishant angles across a length delivery outside off, slower in pace, Gayle waits for it quietly on the back foot and then at the very last moment, he opens the face of his bat and runs it down past the diving short third man fielder.
I Sharma to C Gayle, On a length and around off, Gayle punches it from the crease but finds mid off.
I Sharma to M Agarwal, Width on offer outside off, Mayank reaches out for it and guides it down to third man for one.
I Sharma to M Agarwal, Shows the full face of the bat and defends the ball off the back foot.
S Lamichhane to M Agarwal, Fine delivery this time. A googly on off, turning in. Agarwal picks it late and works it on the leg side for one. So, the first three balls were against Lamichhane but then he bounces back in the next three. Eventful over.
S Lamichhane to M Agarwal, Beaten! Big spin away from the new batsman. Agarwal gets forward and tries to push it through the line but is beaten due to the away spin.
Mayank Agarwal walks in at number 3, replacing Rahul.
S Lamichhane to L Rahul, OUT! Rahul's back leg is on the line, nothing behind and he has to walk back. This is a body blow to Punjab as they lose an in-form batsman. The boy from Nepal now responds to KL's welcome in the best possible manner. Beauty of a delivery, this. Nice drift on this leg spinner. It lands around off and Rahul stretches forward to defend it. But the ball spins away to beat the outside edge and Pant breaks the stumps in a flash. They appeal and the square leg umpire takes it upstairs. The replay is against Rahul and it's an early exit for him.
Out? Not out? Draw the line. Where is Rahul's foot? Has he been stumped? Rishabh Pant seems very confident.
S Lamichhane to L Rahul, FOUR! Well played! A googly around off, turning back in, Rahul goes down and across before sweeping it behind square leg for a boundary.
S Lamichhane to L Rahul, Tossed up ball on off, Rahul defends it by getting on the front foot.
S Lamichhane to L Rahul, SIX! High and long! A flighted delivery, landing very full in the line of the stumps, Rahul moves back to make room and hoists it over long off for a biggie. A nice welcome to the young man from Nepal by KL!
Who will bowl from the other end? It's Sandeep Lamichhane to bowl his leggies. A slip in place.
