Prasidh to Samson, out Caught by Sai Kishore!! Goneski! Big blow for the visitors. The bowler hits the deck hard, angles onto off stump, Samson made a bit of room and tried to open the bat face towards third-man. Ends up skewing it into the hands of Sai Kishore who is at the edge of the circle. Prasidh picks up a crucial wicket against his former side, the wicket that perhaps decides this tie! Samson c Sai Kishore b Prasidh 41(28) [4s-4 6s-2]

Khejroliya to Samson, FOUR, six followed by a boundary!! Back of length and offers width this time. Samson stays tall, jumps as he connects and plays it late, punching it away well behind square for four. GT skipper Gill wasn't too happy with that delivery, asking his bowler to be straighter
10.5

Khejroliya to Samson, SIX, right on cue! 136.4 clicks, a length ball onto the top of the thigh pad. Samson reads the length early, stays still in his creas and pulls it away over deep square for a maximum

Prasidh to Samson, 1 run, oh could have easily helped that pull over short fine leg, he tried but gloved it to the on-side. Was short down leg and asking for punishment

4.5

3.1
Arshad Khan to Samson, no run, appeal for caught behind but we'll get there. What did you do Riyan Parag? He just dropped his bat at the non-striker's end just as Arshad Khan was delivering that ball and that certainly would have distracted his batting partner. It was a yorker outside off stump, Samson tries to squeeze it out, took the edge but need to see if it bounced before travelling to Buttler
