Lockie Ferguson to Tushar Deshpande, OUT! That was nailed but towards long on. Deshpande will feel slightly unlucky as he had got it right off the middle. On middle, Tushar hits it hard but he does not get the desired elevation. He holes out to the fielder at long on. Morgan takes it by moving to his left.

Pat Cummins to Kagiso Rabada, OUT! CAUGHT! Cummins gets his third wicket! Full delivery on middle, Rabada lofts it over mid on but does not get the distance on it. It goes towards long on where Tripathi takes a good catch.

Varun Chakravarthy to Kagiso Rabada, FOUR! Up and over! Fuller and on off, Rabada goes down on one knee and hits it over the bowler's head for a boundary.

Pat Cummins to Ravichandran Ashwin, FOUR! In the gap and a boundary! Shorter and on off, Ashwin stays back and pulls it hard through mid-wicket. No chance of stopping that.

15.5
Varun Chakravarthy to Axar Patel, OUT! TIMBER! That's the fifth wicket for Chakravarthy! What an evening he has had so far! He has been brilliant with the ball and he has changed the game around for Kolkata. Best bowling figures so far in this year's tournament. Flatter around middle, Axar makes some room and looks to go big but he misses it altogether and the ball goes onto disturb the stumps.

15.1
Varun Chakravarthy to Marcus Stoinis, OUT! CAUGHT! Another one bites the dust and this should be the game for Kolkata! He had to go for the big one as the run rate was running away from them. There was no timing on this one. Loopy ball around off, Stoinis looked to go big down the ground but he did not time this one well and it balloons over towards the long off region and Tripathi runs in and he is safe as house. Good breakthrough for Kolkata. They should see the game out now.

Sunil Narine to Axar Patel, SIX! Shorter side and it goes all the way! It is outside off. Patel brings out the slog sweep. He nails it and it goes over the mid-wicket fence for a biggie.

13.3
Varun Chakravarthy to Shreyas Iyer, OUT! Two in two for Varun and this is probably the game for Kolkata. The Delhi skipper is out of here. This is fuller and around off, Shreyas looks to go over long on. Tries doing what Hetmyer did but he too holes out to the fielder there. Nagarkoti is the one under it this time.
W
13.2
Varun Chakravarthy to Shimron Hetmyer, OUT! Hetmyer holes out! Tripathi makes no mistake! Another wicket for Varun. It is fuller and around off, Shimron swings. He looks to go over long on but there is no timing on it. He holes out to the fielder there. Hetmyer had to go for it but he does not connect.

12.6
Sunil Narine to Shimron Hetmyer, SIX! That was very, very much-needed! 13 from the over, still below the runs needed per over but a good one for Delhi. This is full and on middle, Hetmyer clears his front leg and tonks it well over the long on fence. 101 more needed.
W
11.2
Varun Chakravarthy to Rishabh Pant, OUT! TAKEN! Pant's struggle ends! This could well prove to be a blessing in disguise for his side as he was not able to score freely. He brings out the slog sweep. It goes off the top edge and it is towards the longer part of the ground. Deep square leg, Gill, settles under it and takes it.

Lockie Ferguson to Shreyas Iyer, FOUR! Iyer seems to be turning it on now! On a fullish length on middle, Iyer makes room and lofts this one over the cover region to bag another boundary.

Lockie Ferguson to Shreyas Iyer, FOUR! Pleasant shot! Pure timing! On a good length around off, Iyer lofts this one nonchalantly over the mid off fielder for a boundary.

Lockie Ferguson to Rishabh Pant, FOUR! Well played! On a good length around off, Pant slams this through point and it crosses the fence. Delhi need some more of these.

Prasidh Krishna to Rishabh Pant, SIX! What a shot this is! Impressive batting! Short of a good length around middle, Pant pulls this one over the fine leg region to bag a maximum. Delhi need Pant to fire.

Kamlesh Nagarkoti to Shreyas Iyer, FOUR! Back-to-back boundaries for Delhi and Iyer! He is looking in good touch so far! On a good length around middle, Iyer flicks this one to the deep square leg region to bag a boundary.

3.3
Kamlesh Nagarkoti to Shreyas Iyer, FOUR! Sweetly timed and nicely placed! Back of a length ball on middle, Iyer hops and flicks this one to the fine leg region and it will run away past the ropes.

Pat Cummins to Shikhar Dhawan, OUT! TIMBER! Cummins knocks him over! Delhi are falling apart! It is man in form, Dhawan who walks back now. What a start by Kolkata. His angle to bowl this delivery worked out for him and gets him another wicket. On a good length around off, Dhawan looks to drive this one but misses it completely and it goes onto shatter the off stump. Jubilation for Kolkata. Disappointment for Dhawan and Delhi.

Prasidh Krishna to Shikhar Dhawan, FOUR! Ends the over with a boundary! On a good length around off, Dhawan slaps this one over the cover region to find the fence.

Pat Cummins to Ajinkya Rahane, OUT! LBW! It is the first ball of the innings and Rahane is a goner right on the first ball! Really disappointing! Cummins strikes with the ball. He has not been on the best form in this year's tournament but he has removed Rahane right at the start of his bowling. Cummins bowls a good length ball around off, it nips in a little bit, Rahane looks to work at this but he misses it completely and it hits him plumb on the pads. There is an appeal and the umpire obliges and raises his finger. Rahane shakes his head and walks back. What a start this is by Kolkata.
