|
| 1.2 Ishant Sharma to Gilchrist, 1 run, catch dropped!! by Hodge at 3rd slip, it was a length delivery angling away, Gilchrist goes hard at it as he gets a thick outside edge, to be fair to the fielder it was a tough chance, the ball deflects off his hand to third man |
7/0 |
|
| 5.5 Kartik to Laxman, out Caught&Bowled!! VVS has played an ugly hoick and given away his wicket! So uncharacteristic of him, it was tossed up, Laxman had already pre-meditated his shot, and ended up skying it high up and Kartik goes back a few steps to grab that one! Laxman c and b Kartik 22(14) <4s-2 6s-1> |
61/1 |
| 11.1 Hodge to Gilchrist, out Caught by Tiwary!! That is the end of that! It was there to be hit, fraction short and Gilchrist went on the backfoot, pulled it straight to the fielder at deep mid wicket, Tiwary was lurking around and it was straight down his throat, he grabbed that well, much needed wicket for KKR! Gilchrist c Tiwary b Hodge 54(35) <4s-3 6s-3> |
99/2 |
| 12.2 Langeveldt to Gibbs, out Caught by Mathews!! Gibbs skips down the track, he did not get to the pitch of the ball, a completely miscued lofted shot and still goes near the fence, Mathews judged it well at long off and held on! Gibbs c Mathews b Langeveldt 20(24) <4s-2> |
102/3 |
| 14.1 Ishant Sharma to Symonds, out Caught by Ganguly!! Hit or miss and that is how Symonds will play, this time he has missed and Ishant Sharma has struck gold! short delivery, banged in hard into the pitch, Symonds cleared his leg to pull it, the ball rose on him, a top edged pull, circles in the air for a while as Ganguly at mid wicket pouches it easily, KKR smell a chance here, totally irresponsible shot from Symonds! Symonds c Ganguly b Ishant Sharma 5(9) |
116/4 |
| 16.2 Mathews to Rohit Sharma, out Caught by Hodge!! Mathews is the man for KKR and he is doing it with the ball as well, it was the slower bouncer, bowled it hard into the pitch and Rohit Sharma is utterly bamboozled, is in no position, plays a sort of half hearted pull/forehand/flatbatted unusal shot and Hodge at mid off did well to cup it as it seemed to be going over his head, KKR are on fire now! Rohit Sharma c Hodge b Mathews 13(12) <4s-2> |
128/5 |
| 17.6 Shukla to Anirudh Singh, out Caught&Bowled!! The run has been broken - the last ball has got a wicket this time. Another miscued pull, lobs up straight up in the air and Shukla has one of the easiest return catches and he makes no mistake, a completely miscued shot and Anirudh Singh has to perish! Anirudh Singh c and b Shukla 14(14) <4s-1> |
141/6 |
| 18.3 Langeveldt to Vaas, out Bowled!! You miss and I hit says Langeveldt to Vaas! length ball on middle, Vaas goes for the ill-advised hoick across the line, does not connect, but Langeveldt connects, clattering into the top of middle, can KKR lose from here? Looks tough, but dont jump into a jig so soon if you are a KKR fan! Vaas b Langeveldt 0(1) |
142/7 |
|
| 2.6 Langeveldt to Gilchrist, SIX!!, that is timing personified for you! It was a gentle half volley on the pads, flicked away beautifully off the middle and just clears the ropes at deep mid wicket |
31/0 |
| 4.3 Shukla to Gilchrist, SIX!!, that has been hit right out of the middle of the bat over the long on boundary, it was a touch fuller but Gilly's timing was supreme! |
47/0 |
| 4.6 Shukla to Laxman, SIX!!, how often do we see VVS play such strokes? Just gives himself a bit of room and lofts him over long on this time, the Chargers are off to an explosive start here, nothing going right for KKR at the moment |
56/0 |
| 9.3 Hodge to Gilchrist, SIX!!, tossed up on off, Gilchrist walks down and just a free extension of the arms, sends the lofted hit over long off, sails into the crowd, 7th IPL FIFTY!! for Gilchrist, fine innings! |

| 19.2 Jaskaran Singh to Shah, 1 run, full and wide outside off, he takes it on the full but gets the bottom of the bat to mid off, gets to him FIFTY!! |
151/4 |
|
| 0.1 Vaas to Tiwary, out Caught by Rohit Sharma!! What a start to IPL 3! It was a full delivery on the pads, flicked away, but in the air, Rohit Sharma takes it easily. Tiwary c Rohit Sharma b Vaas 0(1) |
0/1 |
| 0.4 Vaas to Ganguly, out Caught by Laxman! ! Even Ganguly cannot do much, it was pitched up and swinging away, luring Ganguly into the fatal drive, the feet do not move and Lax takes it easily at slip. Ganguly c Laxman b Vaas 0(3) |
0/2 |
| 4.4 Singh to Pujara, out Caught by Ojha!! It was a gentle half volley on the pads, he looks to go over mid on but doesn't get enough bat on it, straight to the fielder there and the Knight Riders have lost yet another wicket. Sounds familiar doesn't it? The Chargers are up and running. Pujara c Ojha b Singh 10(16) <4s-2> |
31/3 |
| 5.1 Jaskaran Singh to Hodge, out Caught by Gibbs!! Not the sort of delivery that deserves a wicket but it doesn't matter. It was short and wide outside off, he goes for the ferocious cut, but manages to crack it straight to Gibbs at point, he doesn't miss many and KKR is in disarray. Hodge c Gibbs b Jaskaran Singh 13(9) <4s-1 6s-1> |
31/4 |
|
| 4.1 Singh to Hodge, SIX!!, Korbo Lorbo Jitbo says Hodge, it was full and tailing back into the pads, he goes with the line and lofts him handsomely over mid wicket, just clears the boundary to bring up the first six of the tournament |
29/2 |
| 5.2 Jaskaran Singh to Mathews, SIX!!, what a way to kickstart an innings, it was a short delivery on middle, he goes for the pull and gets a top edge over the keeper's head, carries all the way for a maximum! |
37/4 |
| 14.5 Symonds to Mathews, SIX!!, fine stroke that! It was nice and full on middle, he gets down on one knee and sweeps it way back into the stands at deep square leg, typical of him, the timing was fantastic! |
90/4 |
| 16.2 Vaas to Shah, SIX!!, it was a fuller delivery on middle, he gets across the line and sweeps him way into the stands over deep square leg, terrific hitting this! |
108/4 |
| 16.5 Vaas to Mathews, SIX!!, slower delivery on middle, he gives himself some room and lofts him into the stands over long off, things are getting better for KKR here |
119/4 |
| 17.1 Suman to Mathews, SIX!!, what a way to get to his half century, just picks up the flighted delivery on middle and deposits that way into the crowd at long on, sails into the crowd much to the delight of the crowd |
127/4 |
| 18.2 Singh to Mathews, SIX!!, that has been smashed way back into the stands with utmost ease. Just picks up a length delivery on middle, plenty of bat on that, what ferocious hitting this! |
147/4 |
| 19.4 Jaskaran Singh to Shah, SIX!!, not many batsmen in the world play that pick up shot as well as he does. It was full on the off stump, he fetches it towards deep square leg, impecable timing and placement! |
158/4 |
