... The Run Chase ...
142 is the target for Bangalore and they would fancy their chances to chase it down. Can Rashid Khan and co defend this? Looks tough but we have seen interesting things happen in this competition. Stay tuned as the chase is coming our way.
Dan Christian is up for a chat, he says that he is still enjoying the game. Says that Hyderabad got a really good start but they did well to restrict them to 141. Talking about his catch, he says that it just stuck in his hand and he is happy with the wicket. Adds that they should chase it down and hopes they get a good start. Adds that it is good out there and there are no signs of dew.
It was yet another good show with the ball by Bangalore. It was Garton who took the early wicket and gave them a good start. But in the middle overs, it was Patel, Chahal and Christian who took wickets to rock the batting of Hyderabad. Patel then came back and finished things really well like he has done on so many occasions in this season. Patel took 3 wickets each while Christian took 2 and Garton and Chahal got one. Overall, it was a very good show by them in the field.
Hyderabad did not have the best of starts as they lost Sharma early. But Williamson and Roy batted well after that and took them to a good platform. It looked like they would end up scoring a big total, but after the wicket of Williamson, there was a collapse of the middle order and they found themselves at 107-5 in the 16th over. Holder and Khan tried their best to finish things on a high but were not able to and they ended up scoring 141.
A really good show with the ball by Bangalore. At one point, Hyderabad would have fancied their chances to put on a big score but that hasn't happened thanks to some brilliant bowling by Bangalore.
19.6 overs (0 Run) OUT! TAKEN! A wicket to end the innings and Harshal Patel yet again takes three. Another slower one. On off, Holder looks to go downtown but ends up hitting it high up in the air towards long on. It is taken by Dan Christian there. HYDERABAD END WITH 141!
19.5 overs (1 Run) Just the one from it! A low full toss on middle, it is whipped but to deep mid-wicket for one.
19.5 overs (1 Run) NO BALL! That did not come out right! A high full toss on the body, Khan ducks under it. It goes over him. Free Hit coming up.
19.4 overs (0 Run) NOT OUT! Holder was in by the time Harshal Patel got the stumps out completely. Good work though from him. This is on middle, Khan slams it hard but straight onto the stumps at the other end. Holder is halfway down the track and then looks to get back. Patel picks the ball up, runs towards the stumps at his end and goes to uproot the stumps. It is referred. Replays show that Holder is in.
A run out appeal taken upstairs. Jason Holder managed to cross the line before Harshal Patel could uproot the stumps.
19.3 overs (1 Run) Just a single again! A full ball on off, this is hit down to long off. Only one.
19.2 overs (0 Run) Another one outside off, fuller and slower. Holder is early in the swing, he misses.
19.1 overs (2 Runs) Direct hit and Holder was a goner! He had given up! Outside off, this is carved to point. They go for one. The fielder has a shy at the bowler's end but misses. They take another one.
18.6 overs (0 Run) Brilliant stuff! Another dot to end and that is a lovely over by Siraj! A yorker outside off, Khan fails to jam it out.

18.3 overs (1 Run) Fuller and on off, this is jammed out to covers for one.
18.2 overs (4 Runs) FOUR! Nicely played! Clever shot! Outside off and shorter, this is carved over point and this one races away to the fence. Not sure if that is the right length, clever shot from Khan.
18.1 overs (0 Run) Very full and outside off, Khan looks to whip it but it goes off the inner half back to the bowler.
Mohammed Siraj is back on.
17.6 overs (0 Run) A dot to end! On off, this is pushed to covers.
17.5 overs (4 Runs) FOUR! Edgy again! Holder won't care though! Another slower one outside off, Holder looks to guide it down to third man, this goes off the underedge and fine on the leg side. Fine leg is in the ring and another boundary.
17.4 overs (1 Run) Slower one now on middle, this is worked through mid-wicket for one.
17.3 overs (1 Run) A seam-up ball, a yorker on middle, it is jammed down to long on for one.
Rashid Khan walks out.
17.2 overs (0 Run) OUT! TAKEN! Gets his man this time! Once again the slower one, it is outside off and just behind a fuller length. Saha once again looks to loft it down the ground but is way too early in the shot. He hits it high up in the air towards long off where it is taken by AB de Villiers.
17.1 overs (4 Runs) FOUR! Edgy! A fortunate one but Hyderabad won't mind! A slower one outside off, Saha looks to drive it but is way too early in the shot. It goes off the underedge past short fine leg for a boundary.
Harshal Patel is back into the attack.
16.6 overs (0 Run) A slower one, well outside off, Holder slashes but misses.
16.5 overs (1 Run) This time he does push it away from the bowler and takes one.
16.4 overs (0 Run) Confusion but safe! On off, Saha drops it to the left of the bowler. He takes a start. Holder takes off but is sent back. Christian gets to the ball and has a shy at the bowler's end but misses.
16.3 overs (1 Run) Well fielded! Outside off, this is guided towards point. The fielder dives to his left and makes a half stop. Just the one.
16.2 overs (4 Runs) FOUR! Nicely played and that is a welcome boundary! On the pads, this is worked fine, past the fielder at short fine leg by Holder. Races away.
16.1 overs (1 Run) Outside off, this is guided through point for one.
15.6 overs (1 Run) Full and on off. Saha taps it to covers. Kohli has a shy at the striker's end and scores. A single stolen. The throw was unnecessary from Kohli there.
15.5 overs (2 Runs) Full and on off. Saha nudges it softly towards mid-wicket and scampers across for a quick couple.
15.4 overs (1 Run) On middle, flicked to the leg side for one more.
15.3 overs (1 Run) A googly now, on middle. Saha tucks it to square leg for a single.
15.2 overs (1 Run) Full and on leg. Holder tickles it to the fine leg region for a single.
Strategic Time-Out! A fantastic show in the middle overs by Bangalore and Hyderabad have lost their way. They had a good start and a good platform but Bangalore have taken regular wickets to make sure that Hyderabad do not have set batters at the crease for long. From here, a score of 140-145 would be Hyderabad's aim. Can Jason Holder take them there?
Review time! Virat Kohli has taken the review for LBW. There is no bat on it and Ball Tracker shows three reds!
15.1 overs (0 Run) OUT! LBW! 3 wickets in seven balls and Hyderabad are in a spot of bother. A tossed up ball, full and around leg, it lands and spins away as well. Samad gets on his knee and looks to slog sweep but misses it completely. He gets hit on the pads. They appeal for LBW but it is not given. Kohli has a word with Chahal before going for the review and Chahal convinces his captain there. Up comes the Ball Tracker and it shows wickets hitting. A successful review from Kohli.
