    Angelo Mathews to Taylor
    Taylor has finished this one with what has been symbolic of the last five overs, he walks across, gets a fulltoss giftwrapped for him (to Ross Taylor, with love), and he picks it up - huge over midwicket, the story of this chase really
    19.1
    1
    Angelo Mathews to Boucher
    and he gets away with one, leg stump, length, had Boucher connected it would have been over now, but one leg bye comes nonetheless
    18.6
    6
    Agarkar to Taylor
    Taylor you beauty, he has killed this, low fulltoss again, and Taylor has played a little pick-up over long-on
    18.5
    1
    Agarkar to Boucher
    and he bowls a perfect yorker, angling down the leg, but the problem has been that between those two yorkers he has fit in some loose bowling
    18.4
    1
    Agarkar to Taylor
    lucky you Ajit, another fulltoss, on the pads, and Taylor misses out, hits it straight to midwicket, where Mendis fumbles and misses out on a run-out chance that could have been close
    18.3
    2
    Agarkar to Taylor
    walks down and across, hits towards long-on, two is the immediate call, and two it is, because it isn't hit too powerfully
    18.2
    6
    Agarkar to Taylor
    that's foolish, this is a third fulltoss from Agarkar in the last two overs, and Taylor helps himself to a huge six - no discredit to Taylor, but this is poor bowling
    18.1
    0
    Agarkar to Taylor
    Agarkar starts off with a perfect yorker, just outside off, and he takes it over two-a-ball again
    17.6
    2
    Sharma to Boucher
    yeah yeah yeah, shouts Boucher as he digs out this yorker, and the yeah means they want two, and Taylor responds superbly, and is back on strike for the next over
    17.6
    7
    Sharma to Boucher
    that's a stupid stupid thing, high fulltoss, on the pads, and Boucher pulls it over deep backward square, what's more - it's a no-ball for height
    17.5
    1
    Sharma to Taylor
    moves across, gets too close to the pitch, can't get the elevation, and gets a single to sweeper-cover
    17.4
    4
    Sharma to Taylor
    almost bowled him, and that's four, this is a good yorker, Taylor looks to go on side, gets an inside edge that misses the stumps and the keeper, we are in for a tight one
    17.3
    4
    Sharma to Taylor
    mid-off is up, Taylor sees it, and this time goes straight, Taylor hits this length ball over mid-off, he is keeping them alive here
    17.2
    1
    Sharma to Boucher
    that was a powerful shot, a half-volley outside off, and Boucher went hard at it, but straight to sweeper-cover
    17.1
    0
    Sharma to Boucher
    yorker outside off, Boucher already making room is too far from the ball
    16.6
    4
    Agarkar to Taylor
    and another four, it gives Taylor his 50, and Bangalore the second boundary of the over, Taylor moves towards off stump, and targeted the short fine leg, got it to left of him and it was four as soon as he did that
    16.5
    1
    Agarkar to Boucher
    bowling, a good yorker, just outside off, dug out, and they will get just one
    16.4
    2
    Agarkar to Boucher
    full, outside off, Boucher doesn't connect as he would like, but it bounces over cover, and they get two
    16.3
    1
    Agarkar to Taylor
    full and straight, and he plays it down to long-on
    16.2
    0
    Agarkar to Taylor
    smart slower bouncer, and Taylor can't do anything about it - one bouncer for the over
