    1
    Muzarabani to Evans
    Aiming for the blockhole, can't connect and ball dies down towards keeper! Blessing Muzarabani held his nerve and Giants snatched victory out of the jaws of defeat. A fabulous comeback from Muzarabani after bowling that no-ball; he maintained his composure and nailed those yorkers. This will be a game etched in memory, it was filled with intense drama and so many twists and turns. In the end, it's Gulf Giants who edge out Knight Riders!
    19.5
    W
    Muzarabani to Evans
    Drama continues. Over the wicket, nails a pinpoint accurate yorker and he forces it down to long-on and can't make it in time for the second run, fielder hits the bull's eye and the ninth wicket is down!
    19.4
    1
    Muzarabani to Narine
    Rams the yorker tailing in at off from round the wicket, manages to connect and squirts it away towards deep third, 6 from 2
    19.3
    1
    Muzarabani to Evans
    Pitched up attacking his pads, tries to play swivel pull through the leg side but can't connect, sneaks a bye anyway
    19.3
    1
    Muzarabani to Evans
    Saw him shimming down leg and followed him, well followed him too much and sprays a wide outside leg stump oh, and it's a double-whammy, it's a front-foot no-ball. What an ill-timed no ball! That's a cardinal sin
    19.2
    1
    Muzarabani to Narine
    10 off 5! Round the wicket, on a length and swerving in at middle and off, warily tapped between mid-off and cover, scurries through a run. Will there be a super over?
    19.1
    1
    Muzarabani to Evans
    No, Muzarabani you have to be on top of your game! Dishes out a full-bunger, tugged away to backward square, close to being adjudged no ball
    18.6
    0
    Jordan to Narine
    Oh, nearly another one! What an exhilarating dramatic over that have brought everyone on the edge of their seats, an edge skews away across the line, beating his flick, towards short third who makes an acrobatic diving stop
    18.5
    W
    Jordan to Kalyan
    My word, I cannot believe this! Gottim with an absolute peach Chris Jordan rises to the occasion and lifts the entire up! That is SCREAMER! Length ball with bit of reverse I reckon and through his massive swish across the line, disturbs the furniture and ADKR have all the right to feel nervous now. Serious pace and accuracy getting better of him!
    18.4
    W
    Jordan to Willey
    Whoa! It's all happening out there! Flicks this toe-crusher to Muzarabani at square leg and he was keen on taking the second, throw was pinpoint accurate, keeper whipped off the bails and that little bit of greediness results in his demise! OUT on the big screen and David Willey has to go!
    18.3
    1
    Jordan to Evans
    Wide inswinging yorker, thrashed away straight to deep backward point, fielder stationed exactly for that shot
    18.2
    1
    Jordan to Willey
    On the pads and biffed out to Hetmyer at square of midwicket, it's drifting away quickly from Giants
    18.1
    1
    Jordan to Evans
    Pitched up and gets it to tail in at middle, hits it with some oomph into the real estate at deep midwicket and thought about a second but then against it, fielder pings a sharp throw!
    17.6
    4
    Overton to Willey
    Spliced just over Muzarabani at third man for a four! That boundary will calm the nerves in Knight Riders' room. What a timely boundary to shift the momentum. Just a bit too short and lots of breathing space to free his arms, goes hard at it and the risk pays off, thick edge skews away!
    17.5
    2
    Overton to Willey
    Pitched up on middle, not quite in the blockhole on this occasion, mows it downtown bisecting long-on and long-off, Jordan with a tumbling save, brilliant energy in the outfield!
    17.4
    1
    Overton to Evans
    My goodness! Takes some skill to hold your nerve and dart in those yorkers with relentless accuracy, a yorker that follows him like a spy, carved away towards point across the angle
    17.3
    1
    Overton to Willey
    blockhole stuff, gets down low and opens the face of the bat, steered away to third man for a run
    17.2
    1
    Overton to Evans
    Getting it right into the blockhole, whipped away towards deep midwicket, Hetmyer not fast enough to get to the ball and that gave them a second run opportunity but they don't take any risk
    17.1
    1
    Overton to Willey
    Over the wicket, back of a length outside off, hacks it away off the backfoot to deep point, more force than grace in that shot
    16.6
    1
    Jordan to Willey
    Slow back of a length curving outside off, pulled away across the line into the empty spaces at midwicket, Giants got to believe in themselves, one more wicket and pressure will be on Knight Riders, could be anybody's game
