... THE RUN CHASE ...
Right then! Punjab need 144 runs to get over the line! It is a brutal batting lineup versus a strong bowling attack. Which team will come out on top? We will find out. Stay tuned for the second essay!
Sai Sudharsan (65*) is down for a chat. Says that he is happy with his knock but feels he could have batted better. Adds that for the spinner, it's gripping a little bit and at the death, Arshdeep Singh was nailing his yorkers and it was tough to get it away. Feels that it's a good total. Mentions that the Gujarat bowlers have been excellent this season and he hopes that they start well with the ball.
A decision to bat first by Hardik Pandya did not really go in their favour! But Sai Sudharsan has helped them put a fighting total on the board. No batter found any rhythm in the middle and struggled to score boundaries. Hardik, Miller, Tewatia, and Rashid - the usual saviours for Gujarat this season combined for only 23 runs and had it not been for Sai Sudharsan's knock, Gujarat would have struggled to even cross the 100-run mark. They might be 20 runs short here but Gujarat do have something to bowl at and they do have a strong bowling attack as well. They will be hoping to defend this and continue their winning streak.
It turned out to be a good toss to lose for Punjab! First, they got what they wanted and then their bowlers put on a show. A blessing in disguise for them. Their bowlers were well disciplined and kept things quiet right till the end and they made sure to grab wickets at regular intervals. They grabbed 3 wickets within the first 7 overs and put Gujarat under pressure immediately. Once they got rid of David Miller, they started grabbing wickets in a cluster. Rabada once again was the leader of the pack, grabbing four wickets and demolishing the Gujarat batting line-up. Punjab do have a golden opportunity here to get back to winning ways!
A decent recovery from Gujarat, but it's been a terrific bowling performance from Punjab against the table-toppers. Mayank Agarwal will surely be a happy man! They have restricted Gujarat to a par score here and will definitely fancy their chance to come out on top.
19.6 overs (1 Run) Just a run to end proceedings. A very full delivery, around off. Sai Sudharsan gets across and looks to scoop it the way he did a couple of balls ago. However, he fails to connect properly. The batters scamper across as Jitesh Sharma collects the ball. He decides not to have a shy at the striker's end and Arshdeep Singh is not happy with that. It is given as a run and Gujarat end on 143/8!
19.5 overs (0 Run) Sai Sudharsan gets bowled off a Free Hit! This is a low full toss on middle. Sai Sudharsan heaves it across the line but misses. The ball hits the stumps and it is a dot ball in the end.
19.5 overs (5 Runs) NO BALL and FOUR! Innovative stuff from Sai Sudharsan and this boundary takes his team over 140! A very full delivery, on off. Sai Sudharsan goes across and scoops it over the keeper's head for a boundary. Only 3 fielders were inside the circle and that makes it a no ball as well. Free Hit coming up!
19.4 overs (2 Runs) Just a couple here! Fullish delivery on middle. Sai Sudharsan drills it to the left of long on for a couple.
19.3 overs (1 Run) A slower fullish delivery, outside off. Alzarri Joseph plays away from his body without much timing to covers for a single. Can Sai Sudharsan hit some lusty blows?
19.2 overs (1 Run) A very full delivery, around off. Sai fails to get under it and hits it to long off for a single.
19.1 overs (1 Run) Arshdeep Singh with almost a yorker from 'round the wicket on middle. Alzarri Joseph clips it to deep square leg for a single.
18.6 overs (1 Run) Short and wide, outside off. Alzarri Joseph drags it down to deep mid-wicket for a single. Just 7 from the over! Brilliant stuff!
18.5 overs (1 Run) Slower one, on a length and outside off. Sai flashes and misses. The keeper fumbles and they steal a bye.
18.4 overs (1 Run) Short and on off, pulled towards square leg for a run.
18.3 overs (0 Run) A yorker on middle. Alzarri Joseph blocks it out.
Alzarri Joseph comes to the crease.
18.2 overs (0 Run) OUT! CAUGHT! Rabada gets his fourth wicket and Gujarat lose their eighth wicket now! Rabada lands a cross-seam delivery on a length, on middle. Lockie Ferguson looks to go big over deep mid-wicket. He was trying to do a Guptill, attempting to heave it away while staring at the pitch. He later finds out that his shot has got more elevation than distance as he has hit it towards the bigger part of the ground. Liam Livingstone there takes the catch and Lockie Ferguson has to walk back disappointed.
18.1 overs (4 Runs) FOUR! Lucky for Gujarat and Lockie Ferguson but they will take it with both hands! A short ball on middle. Too quick for Lockie Ferguson as he tries to pull it. The ball goes off the top edge over the keeper's head for a boundary.
17.6 overs (2 Runs) A low full toss, on off. Sai Sudharsan heaves it to deep mid-wicket and comes back for the second run. 11 from the over and a wicket! Can Gujarat get to 150 here?
17.5 overs (1 Run) A very full delivery on middle, Lockie Ferguson works it away towards deep mid-wicket for a single.
Lockie Ferguson is the next man in.
17.4 overs (0 Run) OUT! BOWLED! Arshdeep Singh nails a perfect yorker and gets rid of Pradeep Sangwan! He has been brilliant this season at the death and is showing that yet again today. This is a yorker from 'round the wicket, on middle. Pradeep Sangwan looks to dig it out but misses. The ball shatters the stumps and Arshdeep Singh gets the much-deserved reward.
17.3 overs (1 Run) A fullish delivery, around off. Sai Sudharsan pushes it to long off for a single.
17.2 overs (6 Runs) SIX! Good shot and this young man has played a very mature knock here! First fifty in the Indian T20 League! Singh goes short on off. It is a slower one too and Sai Sudharsan pulls it over deep mid-wicket for a biggie. The Gujarat dugout is on its feet to appreciate the young boy.
17.1 overs (1 Run) Back of a length, around off. Pradeep Sangwan steers it towards third man for a single.
16.6 overs (1 Run) Quick single to end the over! A very good one from Rabada! On a length, on middle. Pradeep Sangwan pulls it to mid-wicket for a single.
16.6 overs (1 Run) WIDE! An effort ball from Rabada! He bangs it short, around off. Pradeep Sangwan looks to pull it but misses. The umpire calls it wide for height.
16.5 overs (0 Run) Back of a length, on middle. Pradeep Sangwan works it towards the leg side.
16.4 overs (0 Run) On a length, on off. Pradeep Sangwan blocks it out. So no hat-trick for Rabada!
Pradeep Sangwan walks out to the middle to face the hat-trick ball!
16.3 overs (0 Run) OUT! CAUGHT BEHIND! Rashid Khan departs on the first delivery and Rabada is on a hat-trick now! The premier bowler is stepping up for his team. A good-length delivery, around off. Khan is just stuck on his crease and looks to defend it away from his body. The ball nips away and catches the outside edge of his blade, and Jitesh Sharma takes the catch behind the stumps with ease. 150 looks far-fetched now for Gujarat!
Rashid Khan comes to the crease.
16.2 overs (0 Run) OUT! CAUGHT! Good catch by Sandeep Sharma and Rabada strikes again for his team. Rabada goes full and outside off. Rahul Tewatia gets a bit across and looks to slog-sweep it. However, he completely miscues it and the ball goes off the top edge towards the short third man region. Sandeep Sharma runs to his right from that position and takes a good running catch. Huge wicket, this!
16.1 overs (2 Runs) A full delivery on off. Rahul Tewatia hits it to long on. Jonny Bairstow there fumbles and allows a second run.
16.1 overs (1 Run) WIDE! Another wide! Rabada goes wider outside off again. This time, Rahul Tewatia throws his bat at it but misses. The umpire calls it wide again.
16.1 overs (1 Run) WIDE! Rabada starts the new spell with a wide! He serves a length ball way outside off. A bit too wide and Rahul Tewatia lets it go.
Kagiso Rabada (2-0-21-1)Â is brought back into the attack.
15.6 overs (2 Runs) A full delivery on leg at 133.6 kph. Sai Sudharsan flicks it to deep square leg. Sandeep Sharma runs to his right and dives to keep it to just two runs.
15.5 overs (1 Run) On a length, around off. Probably a slower one this. Rahul Tewatia guides it to third man for a single.

15.3 overs (4 Runs) FOUR! Just short of Rabada and in the end, it runs away for a boundary! A fullish delivery, on off. Sai Sudharsan slices it right of mid off. Rabada first tries to go for the catch but then realises that it is far away. He dives to stop it but fails and it races away towards the fence.
15.2 overs (1 Run) Lands on a length, around off. Rahul Tewatia opens the face of his blade and guides it towards backward point. Just a single.
15.1 overs (1 Run) Singh bangs it short, around off. Sai Sudharsan pulls but without any timing towards mid-wicket for a single.
