Lockie Ferguson to Ravindra Jadeja, EDGY FOUR! But Jadeja and Chennai will take it. What an over, what an over for Chennai! 20 runs off it and now the game is right in Chennai's court. Full and wide outside off, Jadeja throws the kitchen sink at it. He gets a thick outside edge and that flies over short third man and into the third man fence. Just 10 needed in 6 balls.

Pat Cummins to Ruturaj Gaikwad, OUT! TIMBER! Cummins gets the massive wicket. Such a classy knock and it ends when the batsman is playing an unorthodox shot. Good length ball on middle, Gaikwad moves inside the crease and looks to paddle it over the keeper but misses. The castle behind gets a beating. End of another top knock from Gaikwad but he would be mighty disappointed not to take the team home. 33 runs needed in 16 balls.

Sunil Narine to Sam Curran, FOUR! Just over the short mid-wicket fielder! Flatter ball on off, Curran comes down the track and lifts this just over the stretched hands of the man at short mid-wicket. The wide long on and deep mid-wicket fielders give chase. But the ball bisects them to perfection and trickles into the boundary.

Varun Chakravarthy to MS Dhoni, OUT! BOWLED! Chakravarthy got Dhoni bowled when these two met earlier as well, and now too. 'Chakra-worthy' it reads on the big board in the stadium. Quicker and flatter on middle and leg, Dhoni rocks back and looks to play this on the leg side. He anticipated a fuller length, tossed up ball but did not anticipate the quicker one. Dhoni misses and the ball crashes into the woodwork.

Pat Cummins to Ambati Rayudu, OUT! TAKEN! Rayudu goes for one too many and ends up perishing. Is that the breakthrough that Kolkata wanted? Looks so, if they can capitalize on this further. Outside off on a good length, Rayudu comes down the track and looks to whack that over mid off. However, he ends up getting it straight into the hands of the mid off fielder, Sunil Narine, instead. 55 runs needed in 38 balls still for the Yellow Brigade.
