0.5 OUT! KNOCKED HIM OVER! An absolute seed from Mitchell Starc! He has worked out Abhishek Sharma perfectly here and Starc strikes in the first over, just as he did in Qualifier 1. Starc slants this one in and around the off-stump line, on a good length, Abhishek Sharma plays for the ball angling into him and shapes up to work it towards mid on. The ball nips away overly late and Abhishek gets squared up. The ball whizzes past the outside edge and goes on to clip the off stump. 2/1

2 OUT! EDGED AND GONE! First Mitchell Starc and now Vaibhav Arora! Two superb deliveries from the Kolkata pacers. Travis Head goes for a duck, yet again and Hyderabad have been rocked early in the final. Bowls it with an upright seam and this is just outside off, on a back of a length, Travis Head opts to stay leg side of the ball and looks to get on his toes to play at it. Ends up having a feel for the delivery and gets a feather on it which is snaffled with ease by Rahmanullah Gurbaz. 6/2

4.2 OUT! IN THE AIR AND GONE! Not quite the correct option chosen there by Rahul Tripathi, and he pays the ultimate price. Hyderabad's top three have been blown away again. Starc pitches it up and serves it around off, Rahul Tripathi was better off going down the ground but he chose to have a swipe across the line. Goes low to make the connection but fails to control the bounce generated by Starc. Gets a top edge that goes very high in the air towards mid-wicket where Ramandeep Singh settles under it and reverse cups it near his face. 21/3

10.2 OUT! TAKEN! The golden arm of Andre Russell strikes again for Kolkata! Aiden Markram runs out of patience and Hyderabad are now in even more trouble. Russell bends his back and digs it in short, on off, Aiden Markram tries to take on the short ball and gets on top of his toes to get the pull shot away. The ball comes onto his bat quicker than he anticipated and that results in Markram hitting it straighter than he would have liked. It goes only as far as long on where Mitchell Starc takes an easy catch well inside the ropes. 62/5

7 OUT! EDGED AND GONE! A ripper of a delivery from Harshit Rana! This was set up so nicely by Rana as he kept dishing out slower balls and now goes for a fuller one at 146 clicks. This is bowled on off stump and swings away late after pitching. Nitish Kumar Reddy looks to drive straight through the line but is beaten by the late movement and the ball just catches the outside edge before going straight into the mitts of Rahmanullah Gurbaz behind the stumps. Just when Hyderabad seemed to be make inroads, Kolkata have struck once again. 47/4

14.1 OUT! DRAGGED ON! Harshit Rana returns to the attack and gets the big fish. Surely, this is a knockout blow to Hyderabad. Harshit rolls his fingers over the ball and bowls it fuller in length, outside off, Heinrich Klaasen looks to go back over the bowler's head with mid off inside the circle. The ball comes back in a touch off the surface and catches the inside edge of the bat. It drags back onto the stumps and Rana has his second wicket of the night. 90/8

| Shahbaz Ahmed | 8 | 7 | 0 | 1 | 114.28 |

11.5 OUT! CAUGHT! Varun Chakaravarthy gets in on the act now in the final. Kolkata are bossing this game but Hyderabad are not helping their case as they continue to play their shots and are falling apart here. Varun Chakaravarthy delivers it fuller this time and offers flight as well, around off, Shahbaz Ahmed gets down on one knee and goes for the sweep. He fails to roll his wrists on the ball to control the sweep. Gets a top edge due to the extra bounce off the surface and it lobs tamely towards short fine leg where Sunil Narine runs a few steps back and takes it near his face. Chakaravarthy goes past Jasprit Bumrah in the highest-wicket-taker tally and he now has 21 wickets to his name. 71/6

12.4 OUT! CAUGHT BEHIND! Top catch from Rahmanullah Gurbaz. The Impact Player goes without creating any impact as Hyderabad slip further. Russell delivers it in the channel on off, on a length, Abdul Samad gets on the front foot and looks to drive it through the off side. He fails to get closer to the ball and plays at it away from his body. Gets an outside edge that flies to the right of the keeper. Rahmanullah Gurbaz dives full-length to his right and makes it look easy. 77/7

| Pat Cummins C | 24 | 19 | 2 | 1 | 126.31 |

18.3 OUT! CAUGHT! Straight to the man and what a way to round off a fine effort in the field for Kolkata. This is pitched up on middle and leg stump, slower again from Andre Russell, Pat Cummins hangs deep, clears the front leg and heaves it away down the ground. The connection isn't a great one and the ball flies straight down to Mitchell Starc at long on and this time, he takes a simple catch around his waist. Cummins' resistance ends and Hyderabad are bundled out for 113 runs inside 19 overs. 113/10

17.5 OUT! LBW! Every day, we see something rare on a cricket field and this was one of those occasions. Sunil Narine flights it up full on middle stump and turns in, Jaydev Unadkat gets on the front foot to drive but is beaten in flight and the ball goes off the pads and hits the top of the stumps and the bails light up but don't come off. Kolkata review it for a LBW decision and Ball Tracking confirms three reds. 113/9

8.5 OUT! TRAPPED PLUMB IN FRONT! Or is it? After being hit for six off the previous ball, Shahbaz Ahmed pushes it through from around the wicket and it is much fuller, on middle and leg, Rahmanullah Gurbaz gets inside the line to sweep it fine but the ball sneaks past the bat and hits him low on the front pad. Uh oh, the third umpire informs that UltraEdge and Ball Tracking are down at the moment. As a result, he has to make the decision by looking at the replays and he concludes that there is no conclusive evidence to overturn the on-field call. Rahmanullah Gurbaz isn't pleased but has to make the long walk back. 102/2

1.2 OUT! CAUGHT! Six and out for Sunil Narine. Pat Cummins slides this one on a nagging length on middle and leg and the ball slides on off the turf. Sunil Narine is caught on the crease and just tries to lift the ball but gets a top edge that flies up just over mid-wicket. Shahbaz Ahmed comes in from the deep and takes a comfortable. Just the start Hyderabad would have wanted and the skipper has delivered. 11/1
