Theekshana to Hardik Pandya, FOUR, ouch! Theekshana cries in pain. Very full delivery and Hardik hammers it straight back, Theekshana makes the mistake of putting his hand and the ball strikes him on the finger before racing away. He's fine though and will continue..

Flatter delivery on leg-stump, Rickelton hacked right across the line and missed it completely, it rushed through to uproot leg-stump and Theekshana is jubilant. The Royals needed that badly.

Theekshana to Rohit, FOUR, streaky but it'll do! Tossed up full on off-stump, Rohit was looking to loft this over extra cover but skewed it off the outer half, had enough to clear point and it raced away after
1.5
Fazalhaq Farooqi to Rohit, no run, good thing he reviewed in the end! The timer had nearly ticked down to zero. Length delivery on middle-leg, took all the pace off and Rohit was completely done in, he was through his shot far too early and it hit him on the back leg, looked pretty straight and the finger went up. Ball-tracker shows that just about pitched outside the line of leg stump, very marginal that!
