L Simmons 59(31)
9.2
Maxwell to Nitish Rana, 1 run, against the turn and against the line in punching it away to long-on. More of the straight bats
8.6
Mohit Sharma to Nitish Rana, FOUR, a new man, the same old line down leg and the same old response. Doesn't matter that it is only the first ball he's facing. Whips it away with enough chunk of wood on it to take it behind square
7.3
Maxwell to Parthiv Patel, 1 run, shows the bat sticker and punches it down to long-off
6.5
Axar to Simmons, SIX, there are some ways to bring up a half-century and there is this way. A gallop down the track, right forward and swings his bat massively to deposit this well into the stands down the ground. His #11 I'm told
6.4
Axar to Simmons, no run, across, behind the line and too quick to do anything with it but a defence
6.3
Axar to Parthiv Patel, 1 run, uses the spin coming in to knock it down to long-on
6.1
Axar to Simmons, no run, 91kph, a dart spearing in on the stumps. A front footed block
5.6
Mohit Sharma to Simmons, 1 run, keeps giving his arms the breathing space and keeps throwing his bat out. Quite the toe end this time as he directs it back through the covers. A calming single
5.5
Mohit Sharma to Simmons, no run, swings, wildly. A missed connection. Phew.
5.4
Mohit Sharma to Simmons, SIX, he's toying around here. The mind-reader reads the slower one and the fullish length on the stumps. Deals with a backing away and a sinking lofted power over the covers
5.3
Mohit Sharma to Simmons, 2 runs, goes across. Smartly darted wide and full. The smartness continues with a stretched out stabbing squeeze through point. Some smart ball pulling back at the fence as well
5.2
Mohit Sharma to Simmons, SIX, another Sharma. Another dispatch. Right in the slot. A shimmy across from Simmons to top it up with a full-blooded tonk. Several rows into the long-on stands
5.1
Mohit Sharma to Parthiv Patel, 1 run, searching for the yorker. A couple of centimeters short. Hammered down to mid-wicket at the fence
4.5
Ishant to Parthiv Patel, 1 run, jammed softly to a very deep mid-off to take him on. Ishant meanwhile is on the ground - in his followthrough
4.2
Ishant to Simmons, FOUR, all timing. And glory. Nicely pitched up, very friendly. The reply isn't am afraid. A perfect approach to the pitch of the delivery and a smear to time the pants off it. Through the covers
4.1
Ishant to Parthiv Patel, leg byes, 1 run, searching for a wicket. Just the one would be good in the season too. Ishant is down and yelling in appeal. After a full bolt drifts in to go past the Parthiv drive to rap the front pad. Well down leg - would have been the trajectory. And the umpire agrees
3.6
Sandeep Sharma to Simmons, FOUR, a wasted line. Ruins what was well on the course of turning out to be a top over. Down leg and helped along getting it past the man at short fine
3.5
Sandeep Sharma to Simmons, no run, another blockholer. Severe skill this with the new ball on display. Nothing Simmons in all his aggression could do but get his bat down and jam it out
3.4
Sandeep Sharma to Simmons, no run, takes Simmons by surprise as well with the juice on this full toss. All he manages is getting his shocked full bat face in front of it
3.3
Sandeep Sharma to Simmons, 2 runs, keeps the slog ready. Off the inside half of the bat, but the muscle imparted on it is enough to get it running in the gap around mid-wicket for a brace
2.5
Ishant to Simmons, FOUR, oh my. That's a punch, a ramp and an upper cut all in one. Ishant looks to climb onto his neck. A typical Caribbean back footed stride and an open batted punch to race it through the cordon
2.4
Ishant to Simmons, no run, takes pace off the ball. And makes Simmons wait on his commited shaped up pull - some weird version of it. A massive mistime in mowing it out
2.3
Ishant to Simmons, 2 runs, a charge down. And an angry across the line bat swing. Only to take the lucky inside edge past the stumps to long leg
2.2
Ishant to Simmons, no run, 139kph, slight width. And bounce with the dragged back length. Doesn't quite use his entire height to good effect here does Simmons with him unable to get on top of the bounce. Settles for a bunt down
2.1
Ishant to Simmons, no run, 140kph, starts off with a fullish length veering in on off. A front footed defence drive follows
1.6
Matt Henry to Parthiv Patel, no run, attempt to be cute. Walks across, sits down and looks to scoop it away. Too quick to get the bat in between. A pad-lob
0.6
Sandeep Sharma to Parthiv Patel, 2 runs, a shuffle across the line, takes the line on off from the pads to drag it away to mid-wicket. Another couple
0.3
Sandeep Sharma to Simmons, 2 runs, gets the ball to zip inwards off the turf. A tad too straight in the process. Tucked away in front of square. The powerplay allows a brace
0.2
Sandeep Sharma to Simmons, no run, much better. Gets the line right. The tight ones on the top of off and gets offered the full bat face in reply. In a safe knock out
0.2
Sandeep Sharma to Simmons, wide, down leg again. Some nervy butterflies in Sandeep's tummy here spraying the ball past the pads
0.1
Sandeep Sharma to Simmons, FOUR, and Mumbai take off with Punjab's momentum. Gets a delivery nipping onto the pads and tickles it away fine enough to go all the way
