OUT
Kohli almost clangs it but holds on at the second attempt Gill hasn't looked comfortable during his stay, this is a yorker length ball outside off, he wants to drive it through the offside, but ends up toe-ending it. Flies towards mid-off, and it looks like it might be going over Kohli, but he sticks out a hand over hi...

FOUR runs
length ball outside off and swatted past extra cover. Not exactly where he wanted to send it. He was aiming for midwicket, but was late on it, still managed to get a chunky meat of the bat behind it and the ball goes to the boundary

good length on the stumps, he moves across and clips it to deep square leg. Great timing on that, and it's racing away, but Chahal sprints after it and slides and saves the boundary, pulling the ball in just before the fence

OUT
and Narine's iffy stay ends with a short ball. Saini dug this in short, got it to rise up to his face. Narine with his front leg cleared, wanted to swat it towards midwicket, but he's too late on the ball and has taken his eyes off it too. Gets a top edge that loops up and settles into Parthiv's gloves

no run
slower ball to Narine again outside off. he's got a one-track strategy of clearing front leg and going hard - either legside or offside. Ball beats bat that time
