K Rabada to A Russell, Down the leg side, flicked away for a single.

K Rabada to A Russell, SIX! CRASH! The first of the night! Full and outside off, Russell gets down and slogs it over deep mid-wicket. Flat hit!

K Rabada to A Russell, Banged in short, outside off, Andre bails out of the shot.

K Rabada to A Russell, FOUR! Brilliant batting. Not for the first time this season, have we seen placement and timing apart from power, from Russell. Outside off, on a length, Dre Russ backs away and delicately opens the face of the bat to guide it past short third man.

STRATEGIC BREAK. Kolkata are losing the plot here, they were cruising after the fall of the first wicket when Uthappa and Gill made a comeback and build a 63-run partnership. But once Uthappa departed, the hosts have been a little on the back foot as the run-scoring has been slow and some poor shots have also resulted in the fall of a few more wickets. With 5 overs remaining and another West Indian coming out to bat in the name of Carlos Brathwaite, will Kolkata be able to continue their big-hitting in the death as they have done throughout the season or will Delhi pickup the two batsmen and dent Kolkata's run scoring. Let's find out. Carlos Brathwaite is the new man in.

K Rabada to D Karthik, OUT! Catching practice. Karthik comes and Karthik goes. Not the best of balls from Rabada and one can sense by the smile on his face. This is like going to a shop to purchase a gift but then realizing that your wallet is not there. However, you get a return gift for free. Full and down the leg side, Karthik flicks it with excellent timing. However, there is a man waiting for the catch. Shikhar Dhawan it is and he takes it calmly at deep backward square leg. Once again, Kolkata relying too much on Russell.

Kagiso Rabada returns. 2-0-14-1 so far.

K Paul to D Karthik, Full and outside off, driven through the covers for a single. 11 from the over and a wicket from it. Paul's figures read 3-0-36-1.

K Paul to A Russell, Flicks this through mid-wicket for a run.

K Paul to A Russell, FOUR! Too short and too far down the leg side. Russell helps it past the diving keeper to the fine leg fence.

K Paul to D Karthik, Full and around middle, flicked through mid-wicket for a single.

Skipper Dinesh Karthik is in.

K Paul to S Gill, OUT! CAUGHT! Gill has to depart after a really fine innings. He was looking in excellent touch here but a poor shot does him in the end. Coming to the ball, it was a poor delivery from Paul who bowls it on a length on middle which was going down with the angle. Gill goes for the flick and connects well but the fielding placement by Iyer is excellent as he placed a short fine leg. Axar Patel there makes no mistake and takes an easy catch.

K Paul to S Gill, FOUR! Excellent placement by Gill. Paul starts with a slower ball outside off stump line, Gill reads it early. Backs away and then just cuts it behind point for an excellent boundary.

Keemo Paul is back on. 2-0-25-0 so far.

A Patel to S Gill, Full and outside off, Shubman looks to go over the top but mistimes it towards mid off. The man is at long off, so the ball does not carry. A run taken. 16 from the over!
