Bhuvneshwar Kumar to Nizakat Khan, In the gap and Hong Kong are underway! Length again, on off, this is forced away through extra cover and without much timing by Nizakat Khan. But Nizakat does get off the mark with a couple of runs.

Bhuvneshwar Kumar to Nizakat Khan, Bhuvneshwar Kumar starts off with a good-length ball, around off and this one shapes away nicely. Nizakat Khan stays a bit watchful and just taps it towards cover-point.

... CHASE BEGINS ...

Story of the innings - India started watchfully and took two overs to size up the conditions. After that, they used the third over to press on the accelerator and fetched 38 runs from the remaining overs of the Powerplay but lost Rohit Sharma in the process as well. The pitch was two-paced and the pair of Virat Kohli and KL Rahul struggled to middle their shots. After the Drinks break though, the approach from this pair changed, especially of Kohli, as he started to use his feet and attack more. Rahul's struggle had no end, and he eventually fell to make way for Suryakumar Yadav, who brought in the shift of momentum. Here he is giving a quick interview...

Insane batting from Suryakumar Yadav! On a pitch where every batter struggled to time the shot, he arrived and changed the complexion of the Indian innings in a flash. His whirlwind knock has handed India a total of 192 which at one stage was not looking on the cards. Stunning performance. 78 runs from the last five overs - that's a massive finish from the Men in Blue.

Haroon Arshad to Suryakumar Yadav, A couple to end and 26 runs off the final over in total! Length ball, angling into middle and leg, Suryakumar Yadav steps out and pushes it down towards long on. Virat Kohli straight away calls for two and they race back to complete the second run. India end with 192/2 on the board!

Haroon Arshad to Suryakumar Yadav, SIX! SKY is back at it again and that's the fourth maximum in the over. Arshad attempts another slower bumper, on middle and leg this time but it is just too short. Suryakumar Yadav has enough time to pull it over the fine leg fence for a biggie. 24 off it with one delivery remaining.

Haroon Arshad to Suryakumar Yadav, Much better from Haroon Arshad! A slower bumper now, outside off and Suryakumar Yadav can't reach it.

Haroon Arshad to Suryakumar Yadav, SIX! Make it a hat-trick of maximums now! This is unreal hitting from SKY! Overpitched on middle, SKY hangs deep in his crease and launches it into orbit. The ball goes a long way back over the bowler's head and into the stands.

Haroon Arshad to Suryakumar Yadav, SIX! Two in a row now and Suryakumar Yadav has his FIFTY as well. What a player he is turning out to be for India! Fullish length, well outside off, SKY just shuffles a bit but then adjusts and just times it beautifully over the cover fence for a biggie. 12 off the first two deliveries and Haroon Arshad is under immense pressure here.

Last over is to be bowled by Haroon Arshad. 

Haroon Arshad to Suryakumar Yadav, SIX! Suryakumar Yadav is playing a blistering knock here but this is a gift from Haroon Arshad. A juicy full toss, around off, SKY uses his wrists to slice it away over the point fence for a maximum.

Ehsan Khan to Virat Kohli, Full and straight, Virat Kohli gets down on one knee and aims for the slog-sweep but he goes a bit too hard at it. The ball goes off the inside edge and onto the pads, back onto the deck.
