S Thakur to M Tiwary, Another dot! This has been a good comeback after going for a boundary. This is short and the body of the batsman. He is surprised by it as he hops and keeps it out.
S Thakur to M Tiwary, WIDE! Down the leg side and the umpire calls it a wide.
S Thakur to M Tiwary, Chance of a run out! Length on off, Tiwary taps it to point. Miller is off for a run but is sent back. The fielder has a shy but misses. Had he hit, it would have been close.
S Thakur to M Tiwary, FOUR! Boundaries flowing now! Not in convincing manner but Manoj will take it. Full and on the pads. Tiwary goes for the flick but it goes off the inner half through backward square leg for a boundary.
S Thakur to M Tiwary, Good length on off, Tiwary defends it onto the off side.
Shardul Thakur is on now.
H Singh to M Tiwary, Almost drags it on! Goes for a sweep but gets an inside edge which goes close past the off pole and down to short fine leg for a run. So runs have started to come now. 23 from the last 2.
H Singh to D Miller, Played to the mid-wicket region by the batsman. They pick up a single.
H Singh to M Tiwary, This is eased down to long on for a run.
H Singh to M Tiwary, SIX! They have now decided to put the foot on the accelerator. Manoj dances down the track and gets to the pitch of the ball. He lofts it towards long on. Jadeja there jumps with a hand stretched out. It brushes his fingers and goes over the ropes. This is turning out to be another good over.
H Singh to M Tiwary, This is flatter and on the stumps. Tiwary blocks it out.
H Singh to M Tiwary, FOUR! Poor ball first up and he has been punished! Short and outside off, Tiwary has all the time in the world to cut it through point for a boundary. 10 from the last two balls. Punjab are getting a move on.
Ravindra Jadeja is on. That is what I thought. But Harbhajan Singh has come on instead. That is why I am not the captain.
D Chahar to D Miller, SIX! Oh, yes he can! A much-needed maximum. This one is bowled wide outside off and on a fuller length. Miller gets to free his arms. He goes over mid off. He has not connected it that well but it still carries all the way. A good over for Punjab. 10 comes off it.
D Chahar to D Miller, NO BALL! For the second bouncer in the over! We saw this yesterday in the game between, Kolkata and Hyderabad. Another short ball but once again it is above the batsman's head. It is second for the over and the umpire signals it as a no ball. Free Hit coming up. Punjab needed this. Can Miller make the most of it?
D Chahar to D Miller, Pressure getting to Miller. He swings across the line to a ball outside off. He only connects with thin air.
D Chahar to D Miller, Good change in length by the bowler as he bangs it short. It is a little too high though and the umpire signals it a wide.
D Chahar to D Miller, Miller tries to create something as he shimmies down the track. Chahar sticks to bowling length on off. Miller pushes it towards mid on where the fielder makes a good stop diving to his right.
D Chahar to M Tiwary, Once again keeps it tight by bowling it on off and on a length. Manoj taps it towards covers for a brisk run.
