15th Match

Vaibhav Arora to Mukul Choudhary, byes, 1 run, LSG with the heists of heists. Look at the celebrations from them. Rathi runs out and hugs. Avesh Khan is running away in delight. Mukul Choudhary has become the unlikely hero. Angkrish Raghuvanshi had the chance to become a Jos Buttler but he fails to hit direct and the game is done. It's a good delivery, short of length and across Mukul Choudhary, who pulls and Raghuvanshi had the chance to hit direct, had he done so, Avesh could've been short. He tried the over-arm throw and got it wide of the stumps./

Avesh Khan has the helmet off. Only 3 fielders outside the ring.

Vaibhav Arora to Mukul Choudhary, SIX, Mukul Choudhary you beauty! What a knock. 50 for him. The scores are level. Vaibhav Arora on his haunches. KKR fans can't believe what they are seeing. It's full and wide outside off, Mukul Choudhary gets across and lofts with such power, it flies over sweeper cover. Once it left the bat, it was six. Such was the hit. Talk about timing them. Mukul points at the heavens

Vaibhav Arora to Mukul Choudhary, no run, again superb bowling. This is fine bowling. Fires the yorker length and it's well outside off, Mukul Choudhary shuffles across and looks to scoop, misses, is nutmegged and it's a dot. Two dots and the equation shifts again

Vaibhav Arora to Mukul Choudhary, no run, beautiful yorker length delivery outside off, angling away from the right-hander, Mukul Choudhary drives and misses. Under the bat. Bowled to his left

More chat between Rahane and Vaibhav Arora. More furious chewing from Langer. Russell is chuntering away in the KKR dugout. Kane Williamson the cool cat blows a bubble from his bubblegum. What a game this is. 7 off 4. LSG certainly believe. Deep backward point and sweeper cover. Long-on and deep mid-wicket the fielders back. Vaibhav wants a change. He gets it. A nod from Mukul to Avesh Khan. From round the wicket. Will this break change the momentum?

Vaibhav Arora to Mukul Choudhary, SIX, Mukul Choudhary you beauty! This is a short of length delivery on off, he gets outside off slightly and belts the pull flat over deep backward square-leg. That was a poor delivery. Short boundary and it flies

13 off 5. More importantly Mukul Choudhary is on strike. Rahane adjusting the field. Langer chews on his bubblegum furiously.

Vaibhav Arora to Avesh Khan, 1 run, that's what LSG wanted. It's a short of length delivery on off, Avesh Khan goes on the back foot and tucks through the vacant mid-wicket area. Gives the strike back to Mukul Choudhary

14 off 6. It's Vaibhav to bowl. Rahane has a chat. An over-rate penalty - one more fielder inside the ring. Anyone up for a Super Over? Or multiple ones? The night is still young.

Vaibhav Arora [3.0-0-25-2] is back into the attack

Cameron Green to Mukul Choudhary, SIX, this is mauled over deep mid-wicket. Cameron Green too predictable there. Another slower-ball and short outside off, Mukul Choudhary nails the pull as he gets forward and it flies 10 rows back at deep mid-wicket. Some glove-love between Mukul and Avesh Khan

Vaibhav Arora to Mukul Choudhary, SIX, wow! The Helicopter is out. And it has flown over long-on. Such a wristy and swag shot that is.

Sunil Narine to Mohammed Shami, out Caught by Anukul Roy!! Deserved wicket for Sunil Narine. A rare show of emotion as he punches the air with his right hand.

Right on the edge of the ropes and Anukul is a fine fielder. He takes it easily. Narine has bowled outstandingly tonight. Mohammed Shami c Anukul Roy b Sunil Narine 1(3)
