15.4
Sandeep Sharma to M Pandey, 1 run, that's a low full toss, Pandey goes through with the shot and then lightens the impact by yanking the bottom hand off. Doesn't carry to long-on - would never have - but he only gets a single
15.2
Sandeep Sharma to M Pandey, 1 run, he wanted a big bad mow over cow corner. Gets a single round the corner instead. Why: because the length was too full to get under. Good comeback

12.4
Swapnil Singh to Chris Lynn, SIX, boom, there you go. Slightly short outside off, and even though it's turning away, Lynn has the room to smack it over long-on. And then the gymnasium and those arms take over. Give the ball wings. Sails over

5.4
Matt Henry to Chris Lynn, SIX, and now a full toss to cap off the misery. Swings across the line and sends it over the deep square leg fence. Went high and handsome
5.3
Matt Henry to Chris Lynn, FOUR, only with a man of steel-forearms can do it. Short ball outside off, Chris Lynn is committed on the pull but the ball does not quite come with pace. He does not flinch, goes with the pull and fetches it from outside off, almost clears the fence at deep mid-wicket

2.4
Sandeep Sharma to Chris Lynn, no run, that is Chris Lynn for you. Backs away and then tries to do a Federer by a double-handed forehand. The ball does not come quick enough to him, under-edges on the bounce to the keeper
2.3

1.4
Matt Henry to Chris Lynn, FOUR, Henry's pacy puts Chris Lynn in tangle once again but there is no one at fine leg. The man is in the ring. Chris Lynn was hurried by the bumper and top edged the pull. And because he throws his bat so hard, these edges fly over the ring
1.3
Matt Henry to Chris Lynn, no run, makes room again and mistimes the swing to mid-on
1.2

1.1
Matt Henry to Chris Lynn, FOUR, Henry might have had a wicket off the first ball this season. But the wicket-keeper and the slip fielder both are undecided. Nobody went for it. Length delivery and Chris Lynn goes hard at it, outside edges that flies between the two men behind the stumps
