Deepak Chahar to Mitchell Marsh, SIX, Marsh and LSG are underway. Chahar shortens the length and at his pace the ball just sits up, Marsh loves to play the pull and he absolutely nails the pull into the deep mid-wicket stand

AM Ghazanfar to Josh Inglis, out Caught by Suryakumar Yadav!! Ghazanfar strikes! Two fours and he picks out the fielder. It was the carrom ball, 93.2ks not all that short to play the pull and Inglis too didn't try to hit it over mid-wicket. There was a fielder at deep mid, so Inglis tried the straight-batted pull over mid-on, gets it high on the bat and miscues it. SKY runs back and takes a good catch.

AM Ghazanfar to Nicholas Pooran, FOUR, this is Pooran at his best. On his day he can be devastating against any sort of spin. Ghazanfar drifts it into his arc and Pooran heaves it over mid-wicket. The fielder was at deep square and could only fetch the ball from the rope

AM Ghazanfar to Nicholas Pooran, SIX, another massive over - 19 runs. Ghazanfar goes full and fast, 104.4ks delivery but it is on leg-stump, Pooran leans forward and muscles it down the ground. The long-on fielder could watch it sail into the second tier..

Corbin Bosch to Nicholas Pooran, SIX, he's on fire today. 138.1ks back of a length delivery and Pooran is quick to pick the length, maintains a solid base and nails the pull over deep mid-wicket. 74 meter maximum..

Deepak Chahar to Nicholas Pooran, SIX, fifty for Pooran. First of the season. First time he's batting at number three and it seems like he was waiting to bat at this position. This is a statment knock to his team and the management. He raises his bat and acknowledges the applause. Short of length delivery, Pooran stays inside the line and hooks it over fine leg.

7.3

Deepak Chahar to Nicholas Pooran, SIX, he's unstoppable. Chahar goes full and slot, Pooran says thank you very much and picks up his 8th six. He clears his front leg and crouches a little to get under the length, pumps it down the ground and clears long-on comfortably

Corbin Bosch to Nicholas Pooran, out Caught by Ryan Rickelton!! Relief for Mumbai Indians. Bosch sends back the dangerous Pooran and breaks the partnership. A fine knock comes to an end. Very similar to the short ball that Chahar bowler in the previous over, but Bosch has more pace and he rushed Pooran on the pull, the ball brushes the glove and Rickelton does the rest behind the stumps. The line was around leg-stump and Pooran was looking to help it along, but Bosch's extra pace didn't allow him to get it off the middle.
