M Shami to A Russell, FOUR! Clobbered! He does not get a maximum but gets the next best result. A boundary. Full and outside off, Russell powers it through extra cover. Long off is very straight and he can't stop it. 25 from the penultimate over.

Overs18.5
Score206 - 3

M Shami to A Russell, SIX! Three in a row! Another freebie by Shami. A high full toss this time and Russel easily clears the mid-wicket fence. Can he make it 4 in 4?

Overs18.4
Score200 - 3

M Shami to A Russell, SIX! If you bowl him a full toss he will surely make you pay. That is humongous. Russell just bludgeons it into the mid-wicket stands. Consecutive ones. 200 up and 8 more balls to go.

M Shami to A Russell, SIX! You miss the yorker and Russell will deposit you in the stands. That is what happens here. Shami misses the mark by a little and Russell powers it over the long off fence.

Score185 - 3

A Tye to A Russell, SIX! Russell has smoked this! Poor delivery this time. A length and in the zone for the West Indian. Russell clears his front leg and rifles it over mid-wicket for a biggie. 22 from the over, Kolkata powering ahead!

Overs17.3
Score171 - 3

A Tye to A Russell, SIX! We've jinxed Tye! He gives away his first boundary. Unlucky though. A slower one, on a length around leg, Russell top edges his attempted big shot across the line and it goes all the way over fine leg for a maximum.

Overs17.2
Score165 - 3

A Tye to R Uthappa, Short in length this time, around off, Russell rocks back and pulls it over mid-wicket for a run. Don't want to jinx him but Tye has not conceded a single boundary.

Overs17.1
Score164 - 3

A Tye to A Russell, Yorker of the highest quality, following the batsman down the leg side, even the batsman of Russell's caliber can't do much. He only digs it out.

21:25 (IST) Mar 27

Andrew Tye is back on.

Overs16.6
Score163 - 3

M Shami to A Russell, Just the single though from the Free Hit. A low full toss again and Russell only manages to hit it flat towards Tye at deep mid-wicket. He drops the catch but keeps it down to one. 10 comes from this over but it was an excellent one from Shami.

Overs16.6
Score162 - 3

M Shami to A Russell, NO BALL! The Punjab players can't believe it! Shami has knocked over Russell with a top yorker but the umpire has signaled it a no ball just as Russell started to walk back. He spots there is an extra fielder outside the circle. How costly is this going to prove now? A Free Hit coming up.

21:24 (IST) Mar 27

BOWLED 'EM! No, wait, it is a no ball. Not for overstepping but for having only three fielders inside the ring. Andre Russell gets a reprieve...

M Shami to R Uthappa, A full toss this time, Uthappa hits it all along the ground. The square leg is back so only a run.

Overs16.4
Score160 - 3

M Shami to R Uthappa, FOUR! A very good delivery but an even better shot! This is what dents the confidence of a bowler. This is very full and on the pads, Uthappa uses the depth of the crease and then flicks it through square leg for a boundary.
