10.1
W
Kuldeep Yadav to Ravindra, out Bowled!! What a start for Kuldeep Yadav. He strikes first-ball. The googly on middle, Ravindra fails to pick it and he goes on the back foot to punch, misses, dream beginning for Kuldeep. Nicely bowled as it lands and goes through the bat-pad gap. Ravindra walks off after looking good for so many more. India pull things back. Replays show that it flicked the back leg before going on the stumps. Kuldeep leaps and punches the air in delight. Ravindra b Kuldeep Yadav 37(29) [4s-4 6s-1]
9.4
Varun Chakaravarthy to Ravindra, 1 run, full outside off, Ravindra gets forward to drive to long-off
9.2
Varun Chakaravarthy to Ravindra, 1 run, very full on middle, Ravindra gets forward to whip to mid-on and it's a single
9.1
Varun Chakaravarthy to Ravindra, no run, nicely bowled. It's cross-seam and tossed up outside off, extra bounce, hint of turn away, Ravindra gets forward to push and misses
8.2
Shami to Ravindra, 1 run, good length outside off, Ravindra gets forward and defends to the vacant point region
7.3
Varun Chakaravarthy to Ravindra, 1 run, flat good length on off, Ravindra goes on the back foot and whips it through mid-wicket for one
7.2
Varun Chakaravarthy to Ravindra, 2 runs, tossed up full just outside off, Ravindra gets forward and drives wide of extra-cover for two more
7.1
Varun Chakaravarthy to Ravindra, 2 runs, dropped by Shreyas at deep mid-wicket. Ravindra takes on Varun Chakaravarthy and it's tossed up outside off, he slogsweeps and it's a sort of a top-edge, Shreyas runs to his right and then lunges out at the last moment with outstretched hands, the ball hits the hands and goes down as he dives. Ran 21m and did all the hard work but couldn't hang on
7.1
Varun Chakaravarthy to Ravindra, wide, that's why Ravindra was so confident. But there seemed to be a deflection when Ravindra pulled and missed down leg, he reviews and gets it overturned. Reiffel signals a wide after a flat line on UltraEdge, the ball was well under the bat and the gloves
6.3
Shami to Ravindra, 1 run, dropped by Shami. And he has called for the physio straightaway. Rohit is not a happy man. Chipped back as Ravindra gets forward and it goes to Shami's left, not hit hard and it hits the end of the left hand and there's strapping on that hand. Initially Shami looked to be ducking and then put his hand up to try and catch. How costly will that prove to be?
6.2
Shami to Ravindra, no run, skiddy back of a length delivery on middle, Ravindra goes on the back foot to pull, hit on the thigh and India ponder a review but don't take it. Height was the issue there, would have been ump's call at best
6.1
Shami to Ravindra, no run, short of length and angling into middle, flicked in the air but dribbles down to mid-on, falls well short
5.5
Varun Chakaravarthy to Ravindra, 1 run, short of length and quick on off, whipped off the back foot wide of mid-on for one
5.4
Varun Chakaravarthy to Ravindra, no run, short and wide outside off, Ravindra goes on the back foot and cuts, slides off a thick outside-edge and finds short third man
5.3
Varun Chakaravarthy to Ravindra, 2 runs, good fielding by Shreyas at deep mid-wicket. Full on middle, Ravindra sweeps hard and Shreyas gets across and cuts it off, pushed it back as his feet were close to the cushions, saves two
5.2
Varun Chakaravarthy to Ravindra, no run, from round the wicket. Nicely bowled. Slower and tossed up outside off, slides on straight, Ravindra looks to push off the front foot and misses, not far from the outside-edge
4.4
Shami to Ravindra, 1 run, fullish outside off, Ravindra gets forward and drives on the rise, deep point is back, just a single
4.3
4
Shami to Ravindra, FOUR, thick outside-edge and no slips. It is angled in on a short of length on off, Ravindra looks to defend and the thick outside-edge runs away to the third man fence
4.2
4
Shami to Ravindra, FOUR, my word! What a shot this is. Full on off and this is emphatically whipped away with a delectable work of the wrists, all along the ground and wide of mid-on, a dominant shot and forces Rohit to wear a concerned look on his face
3.6
4
Hardik Pandya to Ravindra, FOUR, Ravindra does not mind taking on the short ball. It's poor bowling with no-one back at deep square-leg or deep backward square-leg or deep mid-wicket. It's short just outside off, Ravindra pulls aerially and it flies to the deep square-leg fence
3.6
Hardik Pandya to Ravindra, wide, short and down leg, wide called as Ravindra lets it go
3.5
4
Hardik Pandya to Ravindra, FOUR, follows it up with a four. Another top shot. It's a short of length delivery just outside off, Ravindra gets forward and punches with an open face and beats backward point and point, right into the gap. Rohit had come out of slip after the previous six, but he was just a spectator
3.4
6
Hardik Pandya to Ravindra, SIX, there he goes. Ravindra gets going with a six. What a blow too. It's a short of length delivery on off, a front foot pull and it has sailed flat and over the deep mid-wicket fence, shows the confidence Ravindra has
2.6
Shami to Ravindra, no run, short of length and tight on middle, Ravindra gets right behind the line and defends to mid-off
2.2
Shami to Ravindra, 1 run, good length on off, Ravindra as he often does, gets forward to drive and the ball runs away to the third man region for one
2.1
Shami to Ravindra, no run, full on off, Ravindra gets forward to drive to cover and a misfield from Kohli, but no damage done as there's backup for him behind
1.5
Hardik Pandya to Ravindra, 1 run, good running, length delivery just outside off, Ravindra knocks it towards extra cover, just a quick glance between the batters and they pinch a sharp single
1.4
Hardik Pandya to Ravindra, no run, touch fuller on middle, Ravindra gets forward and drives it firmly, finds mid-off though
1.3
Hardik Pandya to Ravindra, no run, fraction short on middle, Ravindra gets on his toes and drops it into the off-side
1.2
Hardik Pandya to Ravindra, no run, good length delivery on middle, Ravindra is right behind it in defence, just a hint of movement off the deck again and it goes into the off-side off the outer half
1.1
Hardik Pandya to Ravindra, no run, full and slanting across outside off, just seemed to nip away a touch off the deck as Ravindra shouldered arms
1.1
Hardik Pandya to Ravindra, wide, wayward start from Hardik, length delivery shapes back in and ends up down leg
