David Miller 25(42)
32.3
Bumrah to Miller, out Caught by Dhoni!! Gone! The last ray of hope has been extinguished here. That was a shortish ball, the batsman wandered down the track and tried to pull. The ball decked in, cramped the batsman for room and then the under-edge was peeled off for MS to complete the formalities. Umpire Gould raised the dreaded finger almost immediately. A knock of defiance ends from Miller, does not help his team much though. Miller c Dhoni b Bumrah 25(42) [4s-1]
32.2
Bumrah to Zondo, leg byes, 1 run, misses the clip, but the ball crawls away into the on-side after thudding the pads. They take an urgent single
31.5
Bhuvneshwar to Miller, no run, lovely across doing delivery at 138kph and the batsman trying to have a poke at it, misses
31.4
Bhuvneshwar to Zondo, 1 run, punchy slap through the covers after he charged out of his tracks. The bowler dropped it slightly short but the batsman managed to get it away
30.5
Bumrah to Miller, no run, opens the batsman up and the tuck is missed. The bowler went up in an appeal but that was never hitting the sticks as the impact was dubious. That was going over and looked like hitting him outside the line as well
30.4
Bumrah to Miller, no run, slower delivery floated up and the batsman jabs the ball out back to the bowler
30.3
Bumrah to Miller, no run, charges out, then chops the ball down hard sans any timing to find the man at cover. Intentions never matched up to the application levels over there
30.2
Bumrah to Zondo, 1 run, cemented feet, a wavering bat and a poke into the off-side for a single to deepish cover
29.6
Hardik Pandya to Zondo, no run, another drift back in. Clipped out to square leg
29.1
Hardik Pandya to Miller, no run, wild swishy drive. The feet though stay stuck, refuse to move close to the line. Hence the lack of connection
28.6
Bumrah to Zondo, no run, misses the yorker. And Zondo misses the eventual full toss. Couldn't have found short mid-wicket better with his flick
28.3
Bumrah to Miller, FOUR, now a walk down, pinches Bumrah's ego and he bangs it in short. Without direction. Miller takes on the pull, swivelling too. Very fine
28.2
Bumrah to Miller, no run, continues his away moves, Bumrah smartly follows him. Both relent to settle for a cramped up block
28.1
Bumrah to Miller, 2 runs, backs away, the arms free up finally in slicing it to deep point
27.6
Hardik Pandya to Miller, 1 run, reaches out, waiting to stab it to point. And they take him on. All for a direct hit
27.5
Hardik Pandya to Miller, no run, 139kph, tries dabbing it through the cordon, done in by the overt slant
27.4
Hardik Pandya to Miller, no run, turned up, beaten for the lack of pace. The result - a leading edge to cover
27.3
Hardik Pandya to Miller, no run, 140kph, opens up his defence, can't beat point
27.2
Hardik Pandya to Zondo, 1 run, 136kph, presses forward in a prodding defence. Some late jag back in to take a portion of the inside edge through his legs
26.6
Kuldeep Yadav to Miller, 1 run, through the line, straight down the ground
26.5
Kuldeep Yadav to Miller, no run, flipper easing into the thighs. Miller still can't put it away. A meek nudge to the man at 45
26.4
Kuldeep Yadav to Miller, no run, drifts away, draws the outside half. But his soft hands come to his rescue
26.3
Kuldeep Yadav to Miller, no run, plants his front leg out, almost falling over in executing a block
26.2
Kuldeep Yadav to Miller, no run, another shuffle, this time settling into a defence
26.1
Kuldeep Yadav to Miller, no run, shuffles across, and all of a sudden wonders what if it turns back in. Freezes in his leave. Luckily, it doesn't
25.6
Chahal to Miller, 1 run, back to his sweep. Decent timing, but picks out deep square leg
25.5
Chahal to Miller, no run, leg-lined. Nurdles. Defence
25.4
Chahal to Zondo, 1 run, to the pitch with his lean, and once again, long-off
25.2
Chahal to Zondo, 1 run, all the flight. Zondo walks, takes it on the full, but such is the situation that it brings out a mere push down
24.6
Kuldeep Yadav to Zondo, no run, 74kph, add to it the shortened length. All the time for Zondo to read it off the pitch, drop his hands and nudge it out
24.1
Kuldeep Yadav to Zondo, 1 run, step, step, straight bat and a chip down the ground
23.3
Chahal to Miller, 2 runs, too straight, too full. Shovels it round the corner
23.2
Chahal to Miller, no run, some drift towards off. Miller shuffles, gets himself behind the line. And the usual for now

22.6
Kuldeep Yadav to Zondo, no run, back to Yadav to clean up a defence
21.3
Chahal to Miller, 2 runs, more on the back foot, safely behind the line to deflect it of the tummy. Behind square
21.2
Chahal to Duminy, 1 run, nimble feet, getting behind the line and soft-handing it through mid-wicket
20.5
Kuldeep Yadav to Miller, no run, entices a drive. Gets one. Cover's there
20.4
Kuldeep Yadav to Miller, no run, doesn't read the googly. The illiteracy means an inside-edge on the strange looking defence to short fine leg
20.3
Kuldeep Yadav to Duminy, 1 run, airborne nudge behind square. And that's his fifty..all fifty runs of those coming in the background. His first for 15 months
19.5
Chahal to Miller, no run, the wrong 'un. Miller squirts it off the outside half to point
19.4
Chahal to Duminy, 1 run, glides deep behind, sticking out the full bat face to knock it straight down
