6.6 overs (0 Run) No run.
Rinku Singh walks out to bat next.
6.5 overs (0 Run) OUT! TAKEN! A fantastic catch at point! Two Ben’s do the trick for Australia! Ben Dwarshuis bangs this one short of a length and outside off, Suryakumar Yadav’s eyes light up seeing the width on offer and he goes for the cut and connects hard with it as well. However, it flies in the air straight towards point where Ben McDermott gets down quickly and takes sharp low catch to get rid of the Indian skipper. India three down now!
6.4 overs (1 Run) This is on a hard length and around off, Shreyas Iyer bunts it wide of cover-point and sets off for the run, Sky is ball watching and initially says no but a bit of a fumble by the fielder makes him change his mind and the batters complete the run safely in the end.
6.3 overs (0 Run) Back of a length and on middle, shaping in, Shreyas Iyer stays back and pats it to the off side.
It has started drizzling now and it is getting steadier by the minute. Hopefully, it doesn’t come down too heavy.
6.2 overs (1 Run) This is pitched up and on middle, Suryakumar Yadav looks to drive it away but gets an inside edge that flies towards deep square leg for just one.
6.1 overs (2 Runs) In the air…safe! This is full and around middle, Suryakumar Yadav makes room and tries to go over mid on but ends up chipping it as the ball alls safely and slows down in the outfield. Two more runs added to the total.
5.6 overs (0 Run) Another slower delivery from Ellis, back of a length and outside off, Shreyas Iyer is way early through his pull shot and misses it completely. India 42 for 2 after the end of the Powerplay!
5.5 overs (2 Runs) This is pitched up and on middle, Shreyas Iyer backs away and tries to slog it away but the ball sticks to the surface and he hits it with the toe-end of the bat over the bowler’s head as the fielder from mid on chases it and gathers it up. Two runs taken.
5.4 overs (4 Runs) FOUR! Good shot! Nathan Ellis bangs this short of a length and on middle, sits up nicely for the batter, Shreyas Iyer hops up a bit and pulls it nicely through mid-wicket for a boundary.
5.4 overs (1 Run) Goes for the slower one now but serves this full and down the leg side, Shreyas Iyer misses his flick. Wided.
5.3 overs (0 Run) This is on a good length and on off again, Shreyas Iyer initially winds up for the big hit but ends up blocking it to the left of the bowler.
5.2 overs (1 Run) On a length and on off, Suryakumar Yadav opens the face of the bat and guides it towards third man for a single.
