    M Ashwin to Tom Curran
    and Curran uses all the experience. Makes room, goes with the turn, clears cover. Four. It is all over. The highest IPL run chase is up, and despite an innings that made you want to call the guy back. What a story this game is. Don't tell me to not get carried away
    19.2
    W
    M Ashwin to Parag
    oh he sweeps. Ashwin slips in the googly after showing him the gap square on the leg side. Had to take the risk. Parag bit the bait. Bowled neck and crop
    19.1
    0
    M Ashwin to Parag
    full, dipping, dug out
    18.6
    W
    Shami to Tewatia
    oh man, the greatest 40 minutes of commentary have come to an end. Tewatia has found deep midwicket with the pull, but he has made sure they win the match. Fifty-three off 31 after everybody wanted him thrown into the Gulf. Take a bloody bow, sir. You are a beautiful beautiful player. Storytellers kill for guys like you
    18.5
    6
    Shami to Tewatia
    oh he has reached fifty. Minutes ago, they were all asking for a compassion dismissal for him. This, right here, is the importance of keeping on fighting. Keep kicking. Short ball, outside off, and he has upper-cut it for a six. Well played, RT
    18.4
    1
    Shami to Archer
    goes for the yorker, dug out for a single to deep point
    18.3
    6
    Shami to Archer
    golf swing. This is a great day at the cricket. Nine off nine now. Amid this euphoria, this is pretty abysmal death bowling, I am sorry. Length ball, in the slot, on pace, and Archer ain't no Uthappa to be chipping it sweetly
    18.2
    6
    Shami to Archer
    which is just as well because Archer has hit the first ball for six. Short ball, on pace, and Archer loves him some on-pace short bowling. Over wicket for six
    18.1
    W
    Shami to Uthappa
    what a weak shot from Uthappa. Can you believe he has holed out to long-off at Sharjah to a ball right in his slot? This is just a chip. Need to be going harder at them. That is a poor shot. This ball is right in the sweet slot
    17.6
    6
    Cottrell to Tewatia
    wow Rahul bloody Tewatia. This is a story for the ages, son. What redemption. Now Uthappa has to give him strike. He has smacked a wide length ball over midwicket for another six. Now only 21 required in two overs
    17.5
    0
    Cottrell to Tewatia
    goes for the fifth. Slower length ball wide outside off, and he goes across the lines. Beaten
    17.4
    6
    Cottrell to Tewatia
    well, Rahul, what a player. You are a champion. You have fought through the worst of times. Give yourself something to celebrate. Gees across, shuffles early gets a wide low full toss, and sweeps it over midwicket for another flat six
    17.3
    6
    Cottrell to Tewatia
    make it three times. Sing your redemption songs. Cottrell pitches up, and he goes over wide long-off. Strike rate of 135 now. Game is on
    17.2
    6
    Cottrell to Tewatia
    whoa whoa whoa cricket you beauty. You keep fighting, the tide can turn. He gets a short of a length ball, stands his ground and swings to leg. Not off the absolute middle of the bat but enough to clear the short square boundary and onto the road
    17.1
    6
    Cottrell to Tewatia
    it is a small six but it is a six nonetheless. Hang in there, Rahul. Keep swinging. Cottrell follows him with a bouncer, but he manages to get inside the line to pull him flat over long leg
    16.6
    4
    Shami to Uthappa
    mid-off is up and Uthappa goes over the man to get four more as Shami pitches on a length
    16.5
    4
    Shami to Uthappa
    gets inside the line of a full toss, flicks it fine, Ashwin makes a dive at fine leg, and gets a bad bounce to allow the boundary
    16.4
    1
    Shami to Tewatia
    bouncer, toe-ended to extra cover. Still not getting caught
    16.3
    2
    Shami to Tewatia
    slogged across the line, no timing, gets just the couple
    16.2
    1
    Shami to Uthappa
    full and straight, looks for a couple with soft hands, but deep midwicket is alert to it
