11.2 to N Pooran, he's got him again! For the fifth time in all T20s in just 14 balls. Slower short ball angling into the left-hander from over the wicket, Pooran tries to pull and drags it back on to his stumps via the bottom edge. 99/2 See all photos
Mukesh Kumar	4	0	33	4	8.25	11	5	1	0	0
13.2 to Abdul Samad, caught and bowled! Short of a length again and it seemed to stick in the pitch a bit, 136 kph so not a slower ball. Samad was a touch early on the pull shot and hit it tamely back to the bowler. 107/3 13.6 to MR Marsh, bowls him with a superb yorker! Marsh looks shocked at what's happened. Late dip and movement into the right-hander, sneaking under the descending bat as Marsh tries to jam down on it, he misses and the ball hits the base of off stump. 110/4 19.4 to A Badoni, bowled him! He aims for a fourth boundary by walking across his stumps to swat the ball past short fine, Mukesh keeps it full and straight and misses. 159/5 19.6 to RR Pant, bowled him too! Mukesh goes full and straight from around the wicket, Pant tries to play the reverse lap past short third, the ball hits his pads and then hits the stumps. LSG's 159 is their lowest score this season.. 159/6 See all photos

9.6 to AK Markram, that's the end of Makram, he backs away towards leg and tries to launch a full ball over the cover boundary, that's the bigger boundary tonight, 72 metres, and Stubbs takes the catch in the deep. 87/1 See all photos

3.4 to KK Nair, what a reply from Markram, just hammered for six he comes right back and bowls him. Nair backed away outside leg to make room again, Markram followed him, Nair missed the slog across the line, and the ball hit his back thigh and went on to hit the stumps. 36/1 11.5 to Abishek Porel, caught at deep midwicket! Markram went around the wicket and angled the ball into the left-hander, Porel swung across the line and hit it straight to Miller, he was trying to clear the shorter square boundary but mis-timed it, he's gone for 51 after putting DC on course for their target. 105/2 See all photos
