Santner to Kohli, FOUR, 83.4kph, tossed up by Santner, full in length around off and Kohli gets down low to bring out the slogsweep. Makes excellent contact and the placement is spot-on. One bounce and into the fence!

Vignesh Puthur to Kohli, SIX, 29-ball fifty for Virat Kohli! He reaches there in style. 78.4kph, loopy overpitched delivery around leg and Kohli is down on one leg to nail the slogsweep over cow corner. It's an 80m six. Kohli raises his bat

Vignesh Puthur to Padikkal, out Caught by Will Jacks!! Vignesh Puthur breaks the 91-run stand! He is brave to toss the ball up and he reaps the reward. 81.9kph, flighted delivery drifting in on leg, Padikkal stays leg-side of the ball and gets under it to loft it. He's a bit early into his shot and the bottom hand comes off the bat handle. Goes a mile up in the air and Jacks stays calm in front of the rope at long-on to reverse-cup it. Much-needed breakthrough for MI!

Santner to Kohli, FOUR, chants of "Kohli Kohli" just before this ball was delivery and Kohli responds with a smash down the ground. He skips out of his crease and chips the loft past the outstretched right hand of the bowler. No chance for the fielders in the deep

Hardik Pandya to Kohli, out Caught by Naman Dhir!! It was evident after the time-out that both batters wanted to go big. No signs of one playing anchor. Kohli tried to force the issue in the previous over as well and mistimes a couple

Hardik Pandya to Livingstone, out Caught by Bumrah!! A two-ball duck for Liam Livingstone. Looks to play the scoop again and was caught in a tangle. He shuffled miles outside off stump and took the eyes off the ball at the last moment. It was short from Hardik and hurried Livingstone for pace. Result? A healthy leading edge and offers catching practice to Bumrah at short third.

Hardik Pandya to Rajat Patidar, FOUR, exactly the kind of shot Kohli wanted to play on the first ball, just that he got the timing and placement wrong. 130ks length outside off, Patidar moves across and swipes it over vacant square leg, places it to the right of the fielder in the deep
