0.2 OUT! KNOCKED HIM OVER! Cometh the big game, cometh Mitchell Starc! Starc wins the battle of the Aussies and it is a second consecutive duck for Travis Head. Goes full yet again and attacks the stumps this time, on off and middle, Travis Head clears his front leg and crouches a bit as he shapes up to thrash it down the ground. Does not move his feet much and extends his arms to go through the shot. It tails back in a touch and sneaks past the inside edge to rattle into the stumps. Kolkata land the first punch in this big game. 0/1

1.5 OUT! EXPERTLY HELD! Andre Russell is safe as house and the start gets even better for Kolkata. Both Hyderabad openers back in the hut inside the first two overs. Arora stays around the wicket and goes full this time, shaping away, outside off, Abhishek Sharma's weight stays on the back foot and stays rooted in the crease as he looks to get it over the in-field on the off side. He is unable to transfer his weight and this comes off the toe-end of the bat. It goes aerially towards cover where Andre Russell times the jump to pererction and takes it with both hands over his head. 13/2

| Rahul Tripathi | 55 | 35 | 7 | 1 | 157.14 |

13.2 OUT! RUN OUT! No no no, an absolute disaster for Hyderabad! Brilliant piece of fielding by Andre Russell and it had to take something special to get rid of Rahul Tripathi. Narine shortens his length and fires it in as well, outside off, Abdul Samad reaches out and cuts it fiercely towards backward point. Andre Russell dives to his left quickly and turns around in one motion while being on the floor. Releases an accurate throw towards the keeper and at that stage, Abdul Samad has set off for the run as has Rahul Tripathi. Tripathi is running towards the danger end and he does not make it. The batters stutter in the middle and that has caught Tripathi way short of his crease as Rahmanullah Gurbaz collects the throw and does the rest. 121/6

4.5 OUT! IN THE AIR AND GONE! The move to give Mitchell Starc the third over in his opening spell has worked for Shreyas Iyer and Kolkata. Nitish Kumar Reddy tries to take on Starc again but it does not quite come off for him this time. Starc dishes it out on a back of a length, on off, Nitish Kumar Reddy waits on it and looks to pull it away off the front foot. Skies it off the top edge of the bat and it goes behind the wicket. The keeper, Rahmanullah Gurbaz runs towards backward short leg and completes the catch with ease. 39/3

5 OUT! DRAGGED ON! TWO IN TWO FOR STARC! Kolkata just could not have asked for a better start. Third wicket of the night for Starc and Hyderabad are in all sorts of trouble here. No foot movement whatsoever from Shahbaz Ahmed and he pays the ultimate price. This is on a back of a length, in the channel on off, Shahbaz Ahmed has a loose poke at the delivery away from his body. He looks to play it with an angled bat and the ball catches the inside edge and goes on to disturb the woodwork. Starc will be on a hat-trick at the start of his next over. 39/4

11 OUT! TAKEN! Instant impact for Varun Chakaravarthy! Strikes in his first over and it is the big wicket of Heinrich Klaasen just when he was starting to change gears. Loops it up nicely and keeps the length full, around middle and leg, it is there in the arc for Heinrich Klaasen and he goes for a swipe across the line. He gets more height on it than the distance and it goes only as far as deep mid-wicket where Rinku Singh runs to his right and takes a safe catch. 101/5

14.4 OUT! STRAIGHT TO THE FIELDER! Another one bites the dust! Harshit Rana strikes on his return to the attack and Hyderabad slip further. Rana takes pace off and bowls it on a good length, around off, Abdul Samad walks down the track but gives himself a bit too much room. He has to reach out and does not manage to pick the change of pace. Ends up hitting it flat and straight down the throat of long off where Shreyas Iyer takes it to his right in front of the Hyderabad dugout. 125/8

13.3 OUT! CLEANED HIM UP! The Impact Player departs for a golden duck! Kolkata are all over Hyderabad here! Narine tosses it up and bowls it on a good length, on off, Sanvir Singh tries to get on the front foot but the ball is not that full for him to be able to smother the spin of the ball turning into him. Sanvir leaves a big gap between bat and pad and it sneaks past the inside edge to crash into the stumps. 121/7

| Pat Cummins C | 30 | 24 | 2 | 2 | 125 |

19.3 OUT! CAUGHT! That's it, Hyderabad have been bowled out inside their 20 overs! Andre Russell strides in and bowls a heavy ball, into the pitch and pushes it slightly wide of the off stump. Pat Cummins stays put and just goes after it and has to really reach for it. The ball goes up in the air off the toe end of the bat and comes just around the silly point region. The keeper, Rahmanullah Gurbaz calls for it and pouches it safely. Cummins departs after a fine cameo and Hyderabad are all out for 159 runs. 159/10

16 OUT! LBW! Looks dead straight and the finger goes up! This seemed like the slider that is bowled straight and on a tad fuller length. The ball comes back in with the angle and Bhuvneshwar Kumar completely plays over it and gets hit in front of the stumps. Bhuvi does review it but there's no bat involved and Ball Tracking shows the wickets as umpire's call and the onfield call will stand. Varun Chakaravarthy gets his second wicket and Hyderabad are on the verge of being bowled out here. 126/9

3.2 OUT! CAUGHT! Straight to cover and Rahmanullah Gurbaz right away grunted 'No' as the ball came off his bat. T Natarajan bowls this one into the pitch and angles it across the right-hander again. Gurbaz charges down the track, staying leg side of the ball and looks to smash it through covers. However, he ends up slicing it flat off the toe end and straight to Vijayakanth Viyaskanth at covers who takes a sharp catch around his face and Hyderabad have their first wicket. 44/1

6.2 OUT! TAKEN! A plan comes to fruition for Pat Cummins! Three fielders in the deep on the leg side and Sunil Narine picks out one of them. Cummins digs it in short, over middle, Sunil Narine gets cramped for room slightly but still goes through with the pull shot. Does not get the desired connection and hits it straight down the throat of Vijayakanth Viyaskanth at deep mid-wicket who takes his second catch of the night. Hyderabad will be hoping that one brings two for them here. 67/2
