Amanjot comes across from deep square leg and sends in a flat throw to the striker's end. The ball goes at a good height for Kamalini but she does not gather it cleanly and breaks the stumps with her gloves. de Klerk was well short of her crease. But she gets another life..

Ismail to Hemalatha, FOUR, Hemalatha ends the powerplay with a boundary. Short and outside off, she has ample width to work with and slashes the cut over the backward point region. That should get her going..

Ismail to Hemalatha, no run, in the air and safe. Carey isn't sure. So the umpires send it upstairs.

She was diving forward and the ball gets lodged in her arm, she wasn't sure and wanted it checked

Ismail to Richa Ghosh, 1 run, did that carry? Yes. Seemed like a slower ball and Richa was deceived for pace, chips it towards mid-on and Ishaque moves to her right, bends down and gets both hands but the ball does not stick. How costly will that drop prove?

Ismail to Hemalatha, byes, FOUR, poor from Kamalini. How is that not wide? Full and slanted down leg, Hemalatha plants her front foot across and misses the glance. Kamalini does not bend down enough and parries the ball away. Clearly a wide but not according to umpire N Janani

Ismail to Hemalatha, 1 run, full and attacking the stumps, Hemalatha brings her bat down in time and flicks it to deep square leg

Ismail to Smriti, out Caught by Poonam Khemnar!! Four dots and Smriti throws it away. Excellent from Ismail. Built the pressure by mixing her length and makes Smriti play the big shot. The RCB captain takes a couple of steps down the pitch and looks to hack the short of length delivery across the line, gets a thick top-edge and the ball skies towards mid-on, Khemnar clings on and throws the ball away in anger.

Ismail to Grace Harris, no run, back of a length delivery, not quite short and hence Harris mistimes the pull to mid-on

Ismail to Grace Harris, no run, did that carry? No. In fact Carey has been struck around the neck.

Few of the MI players go across and check on her. She's fine..
