Shiva Yadav to Jagroop Singh, out Jagroop Singh Run Out!! A direct hit to end proceedings. Just stabs it out into the off-side and looks to come back quickly for the second. Gives up hopes of making it through in the end and the bowler gathers the ball and fires in a direct hit. To make matters worse, the run which they completed too is signalled a short run by the umpire. So, 173 is what Gurugram end up with.Jagroop Singh run out (Shiva Yadav) 0(1)

Shiva Yadav to Aman Bharti, out Harry walia Run Out!! 1 run completed. He surrenders. For his side. Went for the second run for his side and in the process falls well short of the crease to a sharp flat throw from the deep. Creams it through the covers and takes on the fielder's arm. The keeper has one of the easiest bail whippings. We do not need to go upstairs for these. Harry walia run out (Bhagat Singh/Kapil Kumar) 24(21) [4s-3]

Babul Kumar to Harry walia, FOUR, heaves away and glances it off the inside edge down to fine leg. Ahh, the bats these days. To compound the misery, there is no one behind square on the leg-side as well

Babul Kumar to Rishu Chopra, out Bowled!! He's made a sitting duck of himself. Right through him and through everything. The Chandigarh slow and low wicket comes into play as this one scoots right under the bat despite Chopra crouching low to make a mess of the timber. Rishu Chopra b Babul Kumar 1(2)

Ashish Anjana to Harry walia, FOUR, walia carries on. Decides to take matters into his own hands with the clearence of the front leg and smashes it down the ground

Ashish Anjana to Vishal Uchitra, out Caught&Bowled!! A hurried pull. Climbs onto him much quicker than he had anticipated and as a result gets struck high on the bat. The top edge lobs up and the bowler calls for it and takes it for a change. Vishal Uchitra c and b Ashish Anjana 1(4)

Babul Kumar to Sagar Babber, out Bowled!! Two boundaries and Kumar has his revenge. Fires in one full on the sticks. You miss, I hit stuff. Right in the blockhole and Babber fails to get his bat inside the line to play at it. Ends up flashing around in thin air. The stumps take a beating. Sagar Babber b Babul Kumar 36(14) [4s-3 6s-3]

Naved Hussain to Vikas kadyan, out Vikas kadyan Run Out!! 1 run completed. Kadyan backs away and slogs, drags it to deep mid-wicket who fires it at the non-striker's end and the bowler does the job.

Shiva Yadav to Bhagwinder, out Caught by Subham Sharma!! The luck runs out this time. Not messed around on this occasion by the man perched at the long-on fence. Heaved away into the night sky taking on the flight and Shubham pouches the skier with ease. Makes him stretch with the toss up and finds the toe end as a result. Bhagwinder c Subham Sharma b Shiva Yadav 21(12) [4s-4]

Shiva Yadav to Bhagwinder, FOUR, put down. Yet another sitter fluffed in the deep. Sits on the slog and sweeps it to deep mid-wicket, finds the fielder to perfection, who lets it slip through his hands and to make matters worse lets it roll away into the fence as well

Naved Hussain to Bhagwinder, FOUR, on the shorter side once again. Bhagwinder doesn't believe in forgiveness. Stays back and hammers it past the bowler. Nothing long-on could do but throw the ball back from the fence

Sarun Kanwar to Ankush Dhariwal, FOUR, just a fraction of room and Dhariwal keeps raking up the boundaries. Gets right on top of it with a rise on his toes and gets the placement to perfection with his standing cut, past backward point

Sarun Kanwar to Ankush Dhariwal, FOUR, a juicy full toss. Just not the ideal stuff to be bowling at this stage. All Dhariwal has to do is stand tall and drive it with the full bat swing past the bowler

Ashish Anjana to Bhagwinder, FOUR, absolute confusion. Struck high on the bat on the pull and it balloons to mid-on, who has a shy at the stumps with his throw. There is no backing up and free runs on availability

Shiva Yadav to Ankush Dhariwal, no run, put down! Right into the palms and it pops out. Slices it in the air to mid-off does Dhariwal and the fielder did not have to move an inch. Not what you want to see at this stage

Shiva Yadav to Vishal Thind, out Stumped!! A brain freeze. Charges down the track without bothering to get close to the line of the delivery. Yadav fires it wide and Dhariwal with his downtown swing misses it all ends up. Had the slog premeditated but gets the execution all wrong. The keeper does the rest with the collection and whipping off the bails. Vishal Thind st Kapil Kumar b Shiva Yadav 5(6) [4s-1]
