just clears the leaping long-on. Six No. 20 for Gayle in just six matches this IPL. Wide length ball, Gayle thinks it is close enough to go for it, but toe ends it up for a skier. Teases and teases Stokes before going over his head

1 run
Tewatia has nearly done him in all by himself. Gayle tries to go straight down the ground, but toe-ends a skier. This has gone nowhere. Is landing at around the 30-yard circle. Tewatia charges back at it, and Stokes, running in, lets him go for it. He puts in a dive, but can't reach it

not the cleanest of the shots. Ladies and gentlemen, this is not a 53-for-1-in-PP pitch. Rahul is repeatedly getting done in by the slow nature of the surface. Gets a thick inside edge as he looks to go over the infield, but luckily it goes straight of midwicket in the circle

FOUR runs
Gayle moves early. Tyagi thinks he has bowled a decent yorker. Just short of a yorker, but by no means a half-volley. On off. So Gayle has to dig it out, but he digs it out with such power and with that tree turn in his hands. It rolls all the way to the extra-cover fence

OUT
sensational bowling and an equally sensational catch. We have said it so many times about Stokes. This is Test-match stuff. Bouncer, straight at his badge. And his eyes look away as he throws his bat up in self defence. The ball lobs up towards point but it looks like it will fall short, but Stokes charges in and puts in a full-length dive to catch it

to Jadeja
pulled over wide long-on! Jadeja points to the dugout, then turns around and underlines his name on the jersey. And then holds a finger up. He's scored 29 off the 30 they needed in the last two overs. It's another length ball across the corridor, and it's another pull. Flat and safely wide of the fielder in the deep

outside edge to third man. Oh boy, the wheels have come off for Lockie, who has been so good for them before this match. Good length ball pushed across the corridor. Gets the front leg away and has a big hoick at that. Third man is in but he wouldn't have had a chance if he was back

swiped over deep square! Doesn't dare go to the yorker after the slip-up last ball, and it has costed him big. This is a length ball on leg stump. Jadeja stays tall and swipes under that.
