Vaibhav Arora to Yashasvi Jaiswal, FOUR! Just over! Pitched up full on middle and leg, Yashasvi Jaiswal looks to whip it over mid-wicket but gets it straighter and wide of mid on where Varun Chakaravarthy dives across but the ball eludes him and goes into the fence.

Vaibhav Arora to Yashasvi Jaiswal, OUT! CAUGHT! Changes the angle of attack and gets the wicket! Brave bowling from Vaibhav Arora as he comes from around the stumps but bowls it full again and gets it right on the money. This one swings away from off stump and Yashasvi Jaiswal is on the back foot looking to whack it over covers. Just that hint of away movement means the outside edge is found and Venkatesh Iyer at first slip takes a sharp catch. Another short stay at the crease for Jaiswal.

Mitchell Starc to Jos Buttler, FOUR! Crashed away and Jos Buttler has the number of Mitchell Starc in this format as he generally strikes at over 175 against the left-armer. Full and wide at 146 clicks but right in the slot, Buttler frees his arms and drives it firmly through covers for a boundary.

2.4
Mitchell Starc to Jos Buttler, FOUR! Too much width on offer and Jos Buttler says thank you very much. Lacking control here as Mitchell Starc serves it way too short and way too wide, Buttler reaches out and slaps it in front of square on the off side for another boundary.

3.1
Vaibhav Arora to Sanju Samson, FOUR! Glorious! Good length on middle and angling in, Sanju Samson holds his shape well and just lofts it over mid on for a boundary while holding the pose as well.

Harshit Rana to Sanju Samson, OUT! CAUGHT! Straight up and taken! The cross-seamer from Harshit Rana and he bowls it at almost 145 clicks, on a hard length and angled into the batter. Sanju Samson gets himself in an awkward position and looks to whip it away but closes the bat face early and the ball gets lobbed up just over mid on. Sunil Narine tracks back and takes it reverse cup and that earlier dropped catch doesn't cost Kolkata much.

4.5
Harshit Rana to Riyan Parag, FOUR! A streaky boundary and that could have easily gone onto the stumps. Nagging length on middle and leg and angling it in, Riyan Parag looks not back away and gets it off the leading edge just past the stumps and past short third as well for a boundary.

5.1
Vaibhav Arora to Riyan Parag, FOUR! Much better from Riyan Parag. Vaibhav darts this onto his pads and Riyan just glances this all along the carpet through square leg for four.

5.3
Vaibhav Arora to Jos Buttler, SIX! HAMMERED! A loosener from Vaibhav Arora does no good to him and Kolkata as he throws a full toss in the middle towards Jos who just clears his front leg and launches this over the fielder at long on for a maximum.

Vaibhav Arora to Riyan Parag, SIX! BONKERS! That's how good Riyan has been this season. Good length around middle and leg, Riyan Parag stays still and swings well with a pure connection right from the middle of his bat taking this all the way over the long on fence for a maximum.

Vaibhav Arora to Riyan Parag, FOUR! A boundary to end the over and the Powerplay and Rajasthan are 76/2. Pitched full and wide of off, Riyan Parag shifted his body weight nicely as he leaned over and drives this through the gap between mid off and extra-cover for four.

7.5
Harshit Rana to Riyan Parag, OUT! TAKEN IN THE DEEP! Excellent bit of bowling from Rana. Rolled his fingers on this and Riyan was too early into his stroke. Slower one around off, Riyan Parag looked to rip the bones out of it but ended up skying this high in the dark sky towards deep mid-wicket region. Andre Russell does well to run in from the fence and take a good catch as the ball was swirling above the big guy.

8.4
Sunil Narine to Dhruv Jurel, OUT! LBW! Narine can do no wrong today. Tossed up a bit quicker this time, Dhruv Jurel takes a good stride out to block this but misses. Sunil Narine and Phil Salt appeal for an LBW but the umpire is unmoved. Shreyas Iyer after a consultation with Narine asks for a DRS. The ball tracker suggested all reds and the onfield umpire is asked to reverse his decision of Not-out to OUT. An excellent review from Iyer and Kolkata.

12.1
Varun Chakaravarthy to Ravichandran Ashwin, OUT! CAUGHT! Ravichandran Ashwin had to go at it and ends up holing out. Varun Chakaravarthy bowls it well over 100 clicks and digs it into the deck over middle stump. Ashwin rocks back to pull but the extra bounce means Ashwin can't get on top of it. Ashwin pulls it flat towards deep mid-wicket where Angkrish Raghuvanshi takes a fine catch diving forward. Rajasthan have now lost half their side and are in trouble.
W
12.2
Varun Chakaravarthy to Shimron Hetmyer, OUT! CAUGHT! Oh, dear! Look away Rajasthan fans, look away now and Varun Chakaravarthy has two in two. Another one that is bowled slightly short and outside off at 94.7 clicks and this one holds in the deck which means there is now dew. Shimron Hetmyer is completely taken aback and ends up just chipping the ball off the face of the bat to short cover.The skipper, Shreyas Iyer takes the simplest of catches and Kolkata are in command here.

16.5
Sunil Narine to Rovman Powell, OUT! TRAPPED PLUMB! Quicker one a bit short and turning into the batter, Rovman Powell looks to punch this off his backfoot but the ball skids on and hits his on the pads. The umpire raises his finger and Rovman Powell asks for a review straightaway. Nothing on UltraEdge and the ball tracker suggests all reds and the batter has to walk back. What a comeback from Narine and that could be the telling blow.

17.1
Mitchell Starc to Jos Buttler, SIX! You just never know with Jos in the middle. PItched up on off, Jos Buttler clears his front leg and launches this dead straight up and over the bowler for a maximum. There is still a lot of life left in this contest.

17.3
Mitchell Starc to Jos Buttler, OUT! RUN OUT! Boult sacrifices for the side. Full and wide of off, Jos Buttler drills this all along the ground towards wide long off and looks for the second. Trent Boult was slow off the hooks and was nowhere to be seen when the throw came in from Shreyas Iyer and Starc removed the bails at the non-striking end. There was never a second there.
