FOUR runs
waits for the tossed up ball from round the wicket to come to him on the base of off stump and then whips it to the left of deep square leg. Lovely stuff. Mumbai don't want runs leaking from both ends and Parthv is giving them monster headaches

FOUR runs
more deliciousness! It's like the ice-cream truck's come early and everyone gets chocolate! Kohli dances down the track, turns a back of a length ball to one that's perfectly in the slot and drives like the boss that he is through the covers

gets nice and tall to lash the short and wide delivery to the point boundary. Spectacular batting from the RCB captain. "Yassss", he screams as the ball races past the infield

no run
beats him all ends up! This is the off-pace legcutter, pitching on the in-between length, not full enough to drive or short enough to pull. Kohli looks to flick, playing according to the angle of the ball, but it grips the pitch and darts away to the keeper. Also: it makes Kohli lose his balance. When was the last time...

no run
lbw appeal, but this will be sliding down leg. Kohli rarely gets lbw even though he does shuffle across his stumps - like he does here. Length ball, pitching outside off, seaming into the right-hander. It's rare that Kohli misses the flick but he survives

laces it to the point boundary. Kohli has dominated Bumrah in the IPL. There might be more than 100 runs in this head to head now and this goes right in the top draw. Lunging forward - pace be damned - and opening the face of the bat at the last second to find the gap to the left of Pollard

OUT
direct hit and Moeen's gone! There's a dive. It's desperate. But it's also very very late. There is no single here. Not when Rohit is lurking at midwicket. But Parthiv turns the slower ball, on a length on middle stump, there and demands the run. It starts with a bit of hesitation and it ends with Moeen miles short of ...

that is amazing! McClenaghan misses the yorker by a few inches and as a result it ends up as a bit of a half-volley on middle stump. Moeen waits in his crease, that bat high in the air, ready to swoop down on the offering, and he flicks it with such ridiculous power that is sails over square leg. All in the wrists! Ple...

lovely bowling. McClenaghan is alert to Parthiv's mischief moving across his crease. And to counter it, he takes all the pace off and drags the line wide outside off. In the end, the left-hander can only flick for a single through square leg
