K Rabada to S Gill, Defended off the back foot by the batsman. 2 runs and a wicket from the over, Rabada's figures read 2-0-14-1.
K Rabada to N Rana, Outside off, steered towards third man for a single.
STRATEGIC BREAK. Nitish Rana walks in at number 4, replacing Uthappa. Kolkata not quite running away with the game and Delhi will be happy. The bowling has been decent apart from a few loose balls and do not forget - the hosts are a bit light in batting tonight. Of course, that the batters other than Dre Russ have not fired is another food for thought...
K Rabada to R Uthappa, OUT! That is a stunner from Rishabh Pant and Uthappa has to go! The short ball does the trick. A couple were punished earlier but this time, it has resulted in a wicket. Also, the pace. 146.2 kph. No child's play. Robbie looks to pull but clearly is done in by the pace. Too much for him. The ball takes the glove and then lobs behind. Now, about the man doing the glovework. Rishabh Pant. The ball flies after making contact with the glove but Pant takes off too. Leaps full stretch to his left and takes a magnificent diving catch. Rabada starts to appeal but gamesman Uthappa walks. The 63-run stand is broken and it might be a blessing in disguise for Kolkata. 30 balls for Uthappa's 28...
K Rabada to R Uthappa, Excellent bowling this from Rabada. Bowls a slower ball on a yorker length, Uthappa could do nothing but keep it out.
