Digvesh Singh Rathi to Rinku Singh, no run, KKR lose the review. Rinku knew he had touched it. That's why he wanted a single and was also not keen on reviewing. But he still does and the onfield decision stays. Rathi darts it down leg, Rinku moves down and inside the line, looks to sweep and gloves it onto Pant's pad, the ball deflects to short fine and Rinku wanted the single. Narine does not respond. Rinku reviews but started to walk off

Digvesh Singh Rathi to Rinku Singh, SIX, back to back sixes. But what was Mukul doing? Shouldn't he be on the edge of the rope.

Mohammed Shami to Rinku Singh, FOUR, fifty for Rinku. This is a solid knock. Wickets tumbling at the other end and he has held fort. But can he take them to a competitive total? He raises his bat and acknowledges the applause. Shami misses the yorker by an inch or two, Rinku stays leg-side and squeezes the drive past the diving extra cover

George Linde to Ramandeep Singh, out Caught by Mitchell Marsh!! The pressure was building. Ramandeep tries to take on Linde and perishes in the process. Ramandeep sinks down to his knees and sits there for a while. This was floated up outside off, Ramandeep was better off hitting it through the off-side, but instead he drags it to the leg-side and picks out Marsh at long-on. This is a slow pitch and generating power is very difficult. Ramandeep Singh c Mitchell Marsh b George Linde 6(11)

Himmat Singh is the impact sub for LSG. Anukul Roy c Ayush Badoni b Mohsin Khan 0(1)

Mohsin Khan to Cameron Green, out Caught by Rishabh Pant!! Cameron Green taking on the best bowler of the evening and pays the price for it. He could have instead been sensible and seen him off with just a couple of deliveries. Mind baffling stuff. Was a length delivery outside off and Cameron Green swung across the line, miscues it towards the off-side, Pant calls for it, runs towards his right side and takes a safe catch. Cameron Green c Rishabh Pant b Mohsin Khan 34(21) [6s-3]

Mohsin Khan to Rovman Powell, out Caught by Rishabh Pant!! Mohsin bowling a dream spell for LSG. He has dismantled KKR single-handedly. Was a short and quick ball on leg, Rovman Powell goes for a pull by swivelling across and gets a glove to the keeper. Pant takes a safe catch behind the wickets and KKR are four down. Proving to be a disappointing performance by KKR as they continue to struggle this season. Has to be one of worst performances by them in recent times. After winning the IPL 2024 trophy, it has been a tremendous downfall for them. Rovman Powell c Rishabh Pant b Mohsin Khan 1(4)

Prince Yadav to Angkrish Raghuvanshi, out Obstructing the field!! A length delivery by Prince Yadav and Angkrish Raghuvanshi nudges it towards mid-on. He sets off for a single, but Green sends him back. The throw came in at the batter's end who got back in with a dive. The throw also hit Angkrish Raghuvanshi and Shami is appealing for an obstructing the field dismissal. The on-field umpire takes it upstairs and the third umpire is having a look at the replays. He reckons the batsman has changed his direction and the third umpire reckons he's out - obstructing the field. The KKR camp isn't pleased. They are surprised at the verdict. Raghuvanshi looks disappointed too as he walks back to the pavilion. He smashes hit bat on the floor and throws away his helmet in frustration. That will go down as a controversial decision. Things going from bad to worse for KKR. They are three down within the powerplay. Abhishek Nayar is still arguing with the fourth umpire. He is having an animated chat. Angkrish Raghuvanshi obs 9(8) [4s-1]

Mohsin Khan to Ajinkya Rahane, out Caught by Aiden Markram!! Mohsin Khan has gotten rid of both KKR openers in successive overs. On a length around leg, Ajinkya Rahane - a frustrated Rahane, he looks to slog this across the line and gets beaten due to the lack of pace. Miscues it completely towards mid-off where Markram back-pedals and completes a safe catch. A perfect start for LSG in front of their home crowd. After a high-scoring Saturday where records were smashed by teams, the Sunday is proving to be low-scoring one. Ajinkya Rahane c Aiden Markram b Mohsin Khan 10(15) [6s-1]

Mohammed Shami to Ajinkya Rahane, SIX, finally connects one. On a length around middle and leg, Ajinkya Rahane stays put and clubs it over deep mid-wicket for a towering 86m six. That shall give him some confidence

Mohsin Khan to Tim Seifert, out Caught by Mukul Choudhary!! Tim Seifert departs without troubling the scorers. KKR and their struggles with the top-order, it's a never ending story this season. It was Finn Allen who struggled initially, and his Kiwi partner - Seifert hasn't been great either. This was pitched up by the bowler around off and Tim Seifert chipped it straight to the fielder at covers. Taken by Mukul Choudhary inside the circle and that's a fantastic over by Mohsin Khan. That's a wicket-maiden by him. Tim Seifert c Mukul Choudhary b Mohsin Khan 0(3)

Mohsin Khan to Ajinkya Rahane, leg byes, 1 run, a player review for an lbw. It was a length delivery around middle and leg, Rahane looks to hack this across the line, but gets hit on the pads. The impact was in line, but it's pitching outside leg, confirms HawkEye. LSG have lost a review. That looked a frustrated shot by the KKR captain. Has been too cautious at the start of his innings. Played a rash shot and almost got out
0.4
Mohammed Shami to Ajinkya Rahane, no run, that's a successful review by LSG. This was a length delivery down the leg-side, quite similar to the last ball, there was a little swing as well, and Rahane got beaten on his glance. No bat involved, but it's brushing Rahane's thigh pad on its way to the keeper. That's not a wide, umpire's decision has to be reversed
