Score71 - 4

A Rajpoot to R Sharma, OUT! Uppish... and taken by Yuvraj Singh at wide mid on! This is a vital moment in the game. Rohit goes for just six, he fails to deliver when his team needed him the most. He departs leaving his side in some serious trouble. The Punjab pacers are doing the trick in this game and all they would hope is the spinners too come to the fore to further dominate this game. Short of a length ball, skids through at pace and Rohit is rushed by that one. He attempts a pull shot but top edges it to wide mid on. Yuvraj settles under the high ball and pouches it safely.
