Vipers vs KnightRiders, 10th Match at Abu Dhabi, ILT20, Jan 27 2024 - Match Result

Russell seals the deal in style! Another drag-down outside off and Russell does not miss out this time. Sits back in his crease and clobbers it high and long over deep mid wicket. The Knight Riders beat the Vipers for the second time this season, and after two convincing defeats, they are back on track!

shortish on middle and leg. Hurries onto Russell as he splices it towards long on. Mistimed it so badly that he could easily get back for two

lovely! Full toss just outside off. Sharafu steps outside leg early, opens his bat face and caresses it between backward point and short third man!

back of a length outside off. Russell clears his front leg and drags it to deep mid wicket, who was stationed quite straight

another off-pace delivery on a length outside off. Russell almost swings himself off his feet but only swats away a few flies in the process

slower ball on a length just outside leg. Russell has a massive slog at it and is beaten all ends up. The lack of pace did for Russell there

look at that ball fly! Shaheen tries to test Russell with the short ball but Russell is camping on it. Opens up his stance and smokes it over deep square leg!

full just outside off. Sharafu plants his front foot and tugs it towards deep mid wicket

Russell dines out now! Half-tracker outside off and Russell will hit that all day long. Winds up and whacks it over wide long on!

dug into the track on off stump. Russell bunts it to the edge of the ring in the mid wicket region and has all the time in the world to get back for two

slower ball that goes awry and slides down leg. Azam cannot collect cleanly either, and ADKR get two more runs

wild delivery down leg, and Mills will have to reload that one

this is just awesome batting! Banged in short and Sharafu has telegraphed this too. Leaps up into the air and slashes it well over the third man fence!

four more! Back of the hand slower ball that lands on a length just outside off. Sharafu picks it, advances and bangs it over the bowler's head!

hard length on off. Sharafu hops up onto his toes and drops it into the off side with soft hands

make that 36 off 29! Too wide outside off and that is a hit-me ball. Sharafu gives it the lot and crashes it over extra cover!

full on off stump. Sharafu nudges it into the backward point region and ambles across to the other end

googly dropped short on leg stump. Russell works it calmly to deep mid wicket

almost! Looped up invitingly outside off. Russell tries to tonk it into next week and inside-edges it onto his back leg. Nearly rolled onto the stumps thereafter

Imad takes a risk, and pays the price! Dangles the carrot on middle and leg, and Imad bites. He looks at this full delivery and thinks he can get six. Swings at it but the angle into him means he cloths it off the inside half of the bat. Rutherford takes it reverse-cupped in front of his face. Is there another twist in this game?
