| 3.2 : 3.2: T Natarajan to Rahul Tripathi, SIX! Some shot from Tripathi! Holds the pose after hitting that shot! Good length ball on off, Tripathi powers it over the bowler's head for a biggie. |
| 3.6 : 3.6: T Natarajan to Rahul Tripathi, FOUR! Pulled away nicely! 13 from the over! Short and around the pads, Tripathi swivels and then pulls it to the deep square leg region for a boundary. |
| 4.1 : 4.1: Basil Thampi to Shubman Gill, TOP EDGE AND FOUR! Luck going in Gill's favour today! Good length ball around off, Gill looks to heave it away but gets a top edge and it goes to the vacant third man region for a boundary. |
| 4.2 : 4.2: Basil Thampi to Shubman Gill, FOUR! This one is smashed though! Gill picked the bones out of that! Good length ball on middle, Gill smacks it to the deep mid-wicket region for a boundary. |
| 4.3 : 4.3: Basil Thampi to Shubman Gill, FOUR! Another one! Gill is targetting Thampi here and it is paying off! Back of a length ball around leg, Gill makes room and then cuts it through cover-point for a boundary. |
| 5.4 : 5.4: T Natarajan to Shubman Gill, FOUR! Good shot from Shubman Gill! He is looking good now! Short on middle, Gill pulls it to the deep mid-wicket region for a boundary. |
| 5.6 : 5.6: T Natarajan to Rahul Tripathi, OUT! TIMBER! After the injury treatment, Rahul Tripathi falls! He was looking in good touch today but just has to go before the end of the Powerplay! Good bowling from Natarajan and he deserves this wicket. Good length ball on middle and off, Tripathi clears his front leg and then looks to go big on the leg side but misses. Natarajan does not though as the ball goes onto hit the stumps. Kolkata are 48 for 1 at the end of the Powerplay. |
| 6.5 : 6.5: Vijay Shankar to Shubman Gill, EDGY FOUR! This is lucky for Kolkata but they will not care. On a good length around off, Gill looks to play at this one but it goes off his bat's outside edge past the diving man at short third man and it runs away to the fence for a boundary. 50 runs up for Kolkata. |
| 8.3 : 8.3: Vijay Shankar to Nitish Rana, FOUR! Rana has started off well! He gets going now! His first boundary of the game! On a good length around off, Rana strides forward and lofts this one over the cover region to bag a boundary. |

| 11.4 : 11.4: Rashid Khan to Shubman Gill, OUT! CAUGHT! What a catch this is! Take a bow, Priyam Garg! This one was travelling and it was really hard to scalp this one but the youngster does well to take this one. Gill's uncomfortable stay out in the middle comes to an end. It is Rashid Khan who has struck. Loopy ball around off, Gill looks for the big shot as he lofts this one wide of the long off region but it does not have the distance to cross the ropes. Garg runs in from the left, and takes a sp |
| 12.1 : 12.1: Vijay Shankar to Nitish Rana, OUT! CAUGHT! It is Priyam Garg again who takes this catch! There seems to be no stopping Garg out in the field today. He has scalped yet another one. Shankar has struck on this occasion. Shankar dishes a good length ball around off, Rana looks to loft this one big but it does not have the required juice to cross the fence as it balloons towards the mid-wicket region and Garg runs in and takes a very good catch. |
| 12.5 : 12.5: Vijay Shankar to Andre Russell, FOUR! Slapped! Can Russell fire today? This is a good start though by him. This is bowled on a full length around off, Russell hammers this one over the cover region and it runs away to the fence. |
| 14.1 : 14.1: T Natarajan to Eoin Morgan, FOUR! Goes straight and bags a boundary! The Free Hit is punished! On a good length around off, Morgan smacks this one towards the long off region and it crosses the fence for a boundary. |
| 14.6 : 14.6: T Natarajan to Andre Russell, OUT! CAUGHT! This is a huge wicket for Hyderabad! Russell stands out there for some time as he cannot believe what has happened! He has holed out straight to the man in the deep mid-wicket. He clears his front foot but this is straight to the man. Disappointing from Russell. His poor form with the bat continues. Coming to the delivery, this is a full delivery around off and middle, he cleared his front foot and looked to go big over the deep mid-wicket regi |
| 16.4 : 16.4: Basil Thampi to Eoin Morgan, FOUR! Fortunate but Kolkata won't mind! They need runs and will take it anyhow they come! Good length ball outside off, Morgan looks to smack it but gets a thick outside edge and it goes to the third man region for a boundary. |

| 19.2 : 19.2: Basil Thampi to Eoin Morgan, FOUR! Full ball on off, Morgan whacks it towards long off. Manish Pandey runs across and then dives. As he tries to pass it to the other fielder, it goes past that fielder and the batters take three. The umpires check whether it is a clean save and the replays show that Pandey has touched the ropes with his foot before he lets the ball go. So, a boundary has been signalled. |
| 19.4 : 19.4: Basil Thampi to Eoin Morgan, SIX! He has hit that hard alright! Brilliant and Kolkata are finishing on a high! Full ball on the pads, Morgan lifts it over deep mid-wicket for a maximum. |

| 2.3 : 2.3: Varun Chakravarthy to Jonny Bairstow, FOUR! Bairstow is looking to unsettle Chakravarthy! Back-to-back boundaries for Bairstow! Loopy ball on middle, Bairstow goes on his knees and then sweeps it to deep mid-wicket for a boundary. |
| 3.1 : 3.1: Andre Russell to Kane Williamson, FOUR! Lovely shot from Kane Williamson! He is struggling with his running due to an injury but that does not seem to trouble him with his shot-making. Back of a length ball outside off, Williamson punches it through cover for a boundary. |
| 3.5 : 3.5: Andre Russell to Jonny Bairstow, FOUR! This is poor bowling from Russell! Cannot bowl there to Bairstow! Full on the pads, Jonny flicks it over short fine leg for a boundary. |
| 3.6 : 3.6: Andre Russell to Jonny Bairstow, FOUR! Whacked! Shortish on middle, Bairstow smashes it to the deep mid-wicket region for a boundary. 13 runs from the 4th over and this has been a good start from Hyderabad. |
| 4.2 : 4.2: Pat Cummins to Kane Williamson, FOUR! Majestic shot! Williamson is looking so good, despite that injury. Full on middle, Williamson chips it over the mid-wicket fielder for a boundary. |

| 6.1 : 6.1: Lockie Ferguson to Kane Williamson, OUT! CAUGHT! How many times have we seen a break getting a wicket? Lockie Ferguson in his first game strikes on his first ball. Williamson clearly was struggling with his injury and he was going to play his shots and this time he perished. Short ball outside off, Williamson looks to cut and times it well too but it goes towards Nitish Rana at third man who takes a simple catch. |
| 7.5 : 7.5: Varun Chakravarthy to Jonny Bairstow, FOUR! Bairstow picks the gap this time! This is a very solid shot! Short ball outside off, Bairstow rocks on his back foot and cuts this one through point to fetch a boundary. |
| 8.4 : 8.4: Lockie Ferguson to Priyam Garg, OUT! TIMBER! A great change of pace by Ferguson and this fetches him a wicket! Garg was not expecting this and he is completely foxed by the thinking of Ferguson! Garg makes some room to play this one but does not connect at all and does not anticipate this at all. Ferguson dishes a slower good length ball around off, Garg makes room to play this one but misses but Ferguson and the ball do not miss as this goes onto disturb the stumps behind. |
| 9.2 : 9.2: Varun Chakravarthy to Jonny Bairstow, OUT! CAUGHT! What an easy catch for Russell in the deep and Bairstow must be kicking himself for playing this shot! He should have stayed there and helped his skipper Warner but he departs. It is Chakravarthy who strikes. This is a loopy ball around off, Bairstow looks to go big and heaves this one towards the long off region. Andre Russell in the deep settles himself under this one and takes an easy catch. |
| 11.3 : 11.3: Lockie Ferguson to Manish Pandey, OUT! TIMBER! Where was Lockie Ferguson all this while? First game in the Indian T20 League, 2020 and has picked up three wickets and all have been big ones. This was a terrific delivery from Lockie Ferguson. A perfect yorker and it gets the better of Pandey. Ferguson bowls one on off, Pandey has no answer to it as he fails to dig it out and the ball goes onto hit the stumps. Terrific. 82 needed from 51 balls. |
| 13.5 : 13.5: Pat Cummins to David Warner, FOUR! Warner is enjoying the pace that Cummins is offering him! This is a very well hit shot! On a good length around off, Warner lofts this one over the mid off fielder and it races away to the fence. |
