Shimron Hetmyer:
(Most frustrating part) Not being able to finish the games that I think I should have. The last three games kinda just put a damper on a few things for me personally. Having to get 9 twice and in the last game we needed 40-something off 20-something when I got out, those three games really ... something I am thinking about most of the days when I am back in my room. (On Sanju Samson's absence) A player of his calibre not being able to represent us, it's difficult. You can't really plan injuries, that's just part of the game, we just have to try to move forward. For me, it's just to be there till the end really and also not take it to the last over. In T20 cricket, it's really easy to say you could just leave it till the end but I always believe if you can finish it in 15-16 and then go back to the hotel, that's fine with me. It's still a win at the end of the day. (On batting higher) There's not a lot I could possibly say to that but I guess we'll just wait and see how today goes.

Theekshana to Sai Sudharsan, 1 run, Hetmyer drops a regulation catch! Half-volley outside off again, Sudharsan drills it to extra cover, doesn't keep it down and it goes straight to Hetmyer who tries grabbing it with the reverse-cup but ends up getting hit on the chest

Fifth time this season Sai Sudharsan has been dropped - the joint most by a batter. In each of the previous innings he was dropped, he went on to score a half-century. It was the first drop by Hetmyer, after having taken each of the eight previous chances offered to him.

Jofra Archer to Sai Sudharsan, FOUR, wow what a shot that is from Sudharsan! It's close to 144kph, back of a length around middle, and he just effortlessly shovels it through midwicket with his front foot in the air

Riyan Parag to Shubman Gill, SIX, slower through the air from Parag, throws the invitation to Gill and he takes it with both hands! Tossed up just outside off, he gets low and just about clears the midwickt boundary with the slog-sweep

Theekshana to Sai Sudharsan, out Caught by Riyan Parag!! Theekshana breaks the partnership, getting rid of Sudharsan who was dropped off his bowling earlier. Hetmyer, who was the fielder who dropped that catch, is on his knees in celebration. 94kph, full around off, Sudharsan looks to loft it down the ground but isn't able to get under it. He hits it only as far as long-on and it's a simple catch for Parag.

Sai Sudharsan c Riyan Parag b Theekshana 39(30) [4s-4 6s-1]
