14.6 overs (0 Run) Short and wide outside off, Rabada punches from the back foot but finds the cover fielder. 4-1-23-4, exceptional from Umesh Yadav!
14.5 overs (0 Run) Shortish and on middle, Rabada defends it down from the back foot.
Kagiso Rabada walks out to bat!
14.4 overs (0 Run) OUT! CAUGHT AT SLIP! Once again excellent captaincy by Shreyas to put a slip in there. Umesh Yadav has four in the match and this is turning out to be a dream start to this season for him. He follows the batter with a short ball around off, Rahul Chahar has his bat up near his face as he attempts to sway away. The ball takes the outside edge and flies towards the only slip fielder. Nitish Rana dives across to his right and completes the catch. Everything going as planned.
Rahul Chahar walks out to bat!
14.3 overs (0 Run) Play and a miss! Back of a length, outside off and shaping away, Chahar pushes at it tamely and misses.
14.2 overs (0 Run) OUT! SOUND OF TIMBER! Shreyas Iyer can't do anything wrong with his bowling changes. Smart captaincy. Umesh Yadav hurls across a length ball around off, at 136.4 kph, it lands and shapes back in a touch. Harpreet Brar is forward to defend but it beats the outside edge and obliterates the off stump.
14.1 overs (0 Run) Fractionally short and on middle, some extra bounce, Brar defends it from the inner half to the leg side.
Change! Umesh Yadav to bowl out.
13.6 overs (0 Run) Floated one, full and around middle, Odean Smith strides forward and blocks. 4-0-23-1, yet another effective performance from Narine!
13.5 overs (1 Run) Flatter and outside, dabbed wide of short third man for a single.
13.4 overs (1 Run) Shortish and on off, Smith gets back and forces it to deep cover for a run.
13.3 overs (0 Run) Turn and bounce from around off, Odean Smith goes back to defend but it takes the outer edge and rolls to backward point.
13.2 overs (0 Run) Loopy and full, close to off, Odean shows respect and defends it off the front foot.
13.1 overs (1 Run) Fuller and on off, driven down to long off for a single. 100 up!
13.1 overs (2 Runs) Two wides! Skidding down the leg side, Smith tries to flick but misses. It hits the pads of the keeper and deflects away. They cross.
DRINKS! Kolkata are well and truly on top! They are almost into the tail and Punjab have not even crossed 100. Can they make quick work of the rest of the wickets? Punjab, on the other hand, have to hope the current pair takes them to a competitive score. Both can bat and will have to do well if their side is to get to a total of around 150. An important passage awaits.
12.6 overs (0 Run) And again. Tim Southee hurls across another clever slower delivery, at 129.1 kph, Harpreet Brar feels for it and is again beaten. Top over from the Kiwi great!
12.5 overs (0 Run) Beaten! Southee serves an off cutter, around off, Brar pushes at it and misses.
12.4 overs (4 Runs) FOUR! Well played! Short in length, around off, angling in, Harpreet Brar leans back inside the crease and plays it very late to guide it towards third man for a boundary.
12.3 overs (1 Run) Width there outside off, short in length, Odean guides it down to third man for a run.
12.2 overs (0 Run) The batter has just blocked that from his crease.
Odean Smith walks out to bat! He walks out with just under 8 overs to go. What can he do?
12.1 overs (0 Run) OUT! CAUGHT! Southee has two, his 250th T20 wicket and Kolkata continue to roar! Yet another great bowling change from Shreyas. The Kiwi serves it a touch short and around off at 127 kph, Khan hangs on the back foot to pull it over the leg side but gets a big top edge. Nitish Rana settles underneath it and takes the skier safely at mid-wicket. Punjab sink deeper!
Change! Tim Southee comes back into the attack!
11.6 overs (6 Runs) SIX! Harpreet Brar finally connects one and connects it well. It's a sweet sixer. Fuller and outside off, Harpreet Brar gets down, fetches it from out there and hammers it all the way over mid-wicket for a flat biggie.
11.5 overs (0 Run) Hit on the pads again, third appeal in a row! The umpire shakes his head and Shreyas Iyer reviews. NOT OUT! Narine delivers it flat and around off, it skids back into the left-hander after landing. Brar plays down the wrong line as he attempts to defend off the front foot. Misses and gets rapped on the pads. The Ball Tracking shows that it's missing the leg stump. Kolkata waste one review.
11.4 overs (0 Run) Another inquiry from Narine. Fuller in length and around off, skidding in, Harpreet Brar stretches forward to sweep but misses. He is hit on the pads, Sunil appeals but the impact is outside off.
11.3 overs (0 Run) Appeal for an lbw but Narine is the only one doing so. Flighted delivery, full and around middle, skidding down, Brar tries to flick but misses.
11.2 overs (0 Run) Strides forward to a full ball again and pushes it to covers.
11.1 overs (0 Run) Slower through the air, full and outside off, Brar gets on the front foot to defend but is beaten.
10.6 overs (0 Run) Loopy delivery, full and on off, Khan also doesn't pick it up. He commits himself forward to defend and does so from the inner half of his bat. The Kolkata spinners are suffocating Punjab here with their accuracy.
10.5 overs (0 Run) Fuller and on off, driven back to the bowler.
10.4 overs (1 Run) Quicker one, the line is around off, Brar helps it in front of square on the leg side, a slight misfield and they cross.
10.3 overs (0 Run) Again Brar is beaten! Shorter this time, around off and turning away, Harpreet Brar pushes inside the line and misses.
10.2 overs (0 Run) Beaten! Brar is clueless there. Has no idea which way it will turn. Leans forward to defend but it turns the other way to beat the outside edge.
10.1 overs (0 Run) Loopy delivery, full and around off, Brar is on the front foot as he blocks.
