Y Chahal to B Azam, A direct hit would have made things interesting! Tossed up on middle and leg, Azam taps it towards square leg and calls his partner through. Dhoni attacks the ball, turns back but as he throws the ball, he loses his balance and the shy goes well wide at his end. Malik was struggling there.

A Rayudu to B Azam, Shorter in length outside off, cut away to the man at point.

18:25 (IST) Sep 19

Well, not good news for India. Hardik is lying on the stretcher and is being carried off the field. Doesn't look good at all at the moment. While landing on his followthrough, his right foot lost balance. Seems like he has hurt his hip region. Ravi Shastri looks concerned in the dressing room. A big blow for the Men in Blue. Meanwhile, Ambati Rayudu will bowl the final ball of the over in Pandya's place.

18:22 (IST) Sep 19

What happened there? Hardik Pandya has fallen on the ground after delivering the ball. Seems to be in a lot of pain. The replays show that he lost his footing a bit on his followthrough. Might have pulled his hamstring. India will hope that it is nothing serious.

H Pandya to B Azam, FOUR! Good shot! Fractionally overpitched outside off, Azam leans into it and caresses it through covers. Rayudu has a lot of ground to cover. He runs to his right, slides full length and almost pulls it back in but his legs come in the way. Deflects to the ropes off the boots. Unlucky there.
