23 - 1

3.2
Awana to Smith, OUT, did that keep a touch low? It was back of a length, and Smith seemed surprised by it as it sneaked through his defence and crashed into the stumps.
I think that came back in off the pitch as well

DR Smith  b Awana 14

Chennai in trouble at 41/3 after 6 overs vs Punjab

5.6  Awana to Raina, OUT, got him! Bailey was the man who ran Raina out in the IPL knockout

and now he's the man at short midwicket who stays low and scoops up a super catch ...

Faf seems to have come out with an aim to play everything behind the wicket-keeper

50 to Bravo !

Anureet Singh to Bravo, FOUR, looks for the yorker again, gets it wrong, and Bravo uses the

Patel to Bravo, OUT, this time Maxwell wraps his hands around that ball.

Bravo didn't quite hit it as well as he would have liked, and lofted it straight to long-off

DJ Bravo c Maxwell b Patel 67

Bravo was on 8 when Maxwell dropped him at long-off :

30 when Patel couldn't grab on off his own bowling.

24 - 3

Nehra to Maxwell, short ball, down the leg side, and Nehra's dismissed Maxwell with a rubbish ball.

He looked to pull, got a little bit of glove on it, and Dhoni tumbles to his left to take the low catch
