    Morkel to Ahmed
    no need for the last over - that's finished with a four! Nechim made room, got another short ball and went hard at it to get a thick upper edge to send the ball fine on the off side for four
    18.5
    1
    Morkel to Harshal
    back of length towards the batsman now, he gets some bat towards short fine leg for an easy single
    18.4
    2
    Morkel to Harshal
    is that another run out, Robbie thinks he's got him! Harshal played the short of length ball towards third man by opening the face of the bat, the fielder ran in hard, they want two, the throw is accurate, Harshal dives and replays suggest he made it
    18.3
    1
    Morkel to Ahmed
    makes room to slash at the ball and finds GG at point, but they take a quick single
    18.2
    W
    Morkel to Gayle
    another meaty blow, superb fielding in the deep from Pandey and Gayle is run out, would you believe it! He middled it for the cow corner boundary, where Pandey fell over the boundary while taking the catch but made sure he threw the ball back in just before that. The batsmen settled for one initially and realised a little late there was time for a second. Gayle is not completely fit and is slow to come back for the second. Accurate throw and he's well short, what a faux pas
    18.1
    6
    Morkel to Gayle
    doesn't matter where you bowl to him now - it was on length and he clobbered it over long on for six!
    17.6
    6
    Narine to Harshal
    no, he's not going to block it! Got a full delivery and smashed it straight down the ground into the sightscreen with a straight bat. Clean and confident strike!
    17.5
    0
    Narine to Harshal
    comes down to smash the ball back to the bowler, Narine gets a hand to it
    17.4
    1
    Narine to Gayle
    slightly quicker on the pads, clipped to deep midwicket and he wants two more but won't get more than one
    17.3
    2
    Narine to Gayle
    he's not only about power - paddles the ball fine down leg with the turn for two in the gap to fine leg
    17.2
    4
    Narine to Gayle
    on the other side of the same fielder - goes to Shakib's left now as he sweeps the ball from leg and even takes one hand off just after hitting the shot
    17.1
    4
    Narine to Gayle
    picks the gap by pulling the short ball from leg off the back foot to the wide long-on boundary for four. Shakib is placed there but it beats him
    16.6
    1
    Shakib to Gayle
    fullish outside off and Gayle drives uppishly, gets a leading edge and it beats Morkel at cover. He gets a single to keep strike
    16.5
    6
    Shakib to Gayle
    full toss and that will definitely go for six. Same region - midwicket boundary and right from the middle of the bat. Massive strike
    16.4
    6
    Shakib to Gayle
    and why's he denying the singles? For this - got a full delivery and tonked it with the slog sweep from the middle of that bat for a huge six
    16.3
    0
    Shakib to Gayle
    nearly in the block hole again, muscled down to long on but denies the single to Harshal Patel yet again
    16.2
    0
    Shakib to Gayle
    in the block hole from Shakib, he pushes it to midwicket but keeps strike
    16.2
    1
    Shakib to Gayle
    massive wide down the leg side
    16.1
    W
    Shakib to Gayle
    run out chance, gone to the third umpire! Gayle worked the ball towards sweeper cover in the deep, they had no choice but to go for two with the asking rate. But Abbott fell couple of inches short with that accurate throw
    15.6
    1
    Pathan to Gayle
    another drop, it's Gayle's again and it's from Morkel again! He slog swept the fullish ball from middle behind square and Morkel got to it but could not hold on as he was on the move. Turning point
