    3.6 taken at mid-on!! Abhishek had faced a fair number of dot balls so far, and falls looking for a big hit. Motie, inside the circle, turned halfway to his left, and moved a few steps back. The ball dropped comfortably into his hands. Chase bowled it on the shorter side, and around off. There was considerable bounce for him, and Abhishek got his pull off the higher side of the bat 42/1
    14.3 Pooran is underneath and gets second time lucky. He had dropped Samson on 6, and now 76 runs later, finally gets his man. Banged in short outside off, Samson ramps, trying to clear deep backward point but doesn't get enough power behind it and Pooran does the rest. Here's Sreshth: Springer's celebration of P and V with his hands is a tribute to his mother (Pamela) and father (Victor) who died in 2026 and 2016 respectively 162/4

    11.1 He picked up Abhishek, and now he's sent back the local boy Ishan Kishan! Gets the length ball to skid through on off stump. Kishan gives himself room trying to smack that through the offside. The ball doesn't bounce as much as Kishan expects. He misses and sees his off pole flattened 139/2
    13.3 A third wicket for Chase and he celebrates with gusto. Flatter 92.7kph length ball just outside off, with the ball also keeping a tad low. Dube looks to crash that across the line, gets a thick inside-edge onto pad with the ball then ricocheting onto the stumps. 158/3
    19.5 Straight down deep midwicket's throat. Banged in short on middle, Iyer gets it very high off the bat and only as far as Hetmyer, who makes no mistake 245/5

    0.3 Bishnoi, the sub fielder, takes a skier. Mayank fires a short delivery at 143kph, and Pooran's attempted pull results in the ball ballooning up a long way. Bishnoi, at square leg, ended up at midwicket as the dropped into his lap, and he fell to the ground. The short ball results in a wicket after a boundary last ball 5/1
    0.4 inside edge from Hetmyer. Mayank has lit up Ranchi. He's firing everyone up. Mayank takes off after Hetmyer falls first ball. Short delivery from Mayank at 144kph, and on the stumps. Little room for Hetmyer to play that attempted slash, not least with that pace and bounce from Mayank. He ends up chopping it onto the top of middle stump 5/2

    5.1 gone!! This is launched at 149.5kph. The off stump is pinged, and is uprooted with that pace. On a length and angling into off from Mayank, as Powell looked to swipe-push at it, but was struck on the flap of his front pad. The ball rolled over to the off stump, which came off in a second 58/3
    14.1 Kuldeep gets his man! That is the breakthrough India wanted so badly. A soft dismissal in the end. Flatter well outside off stump, Rutherford reaches out and looks to guide that fine. He can only manage a thin edge and Samson does the rest. He walks back for a fabulous 84 off 37 balls 178/4
