Moeen Ali 65(34)
14.4
Rashid Khan to Moeen Ali, out Caught by Goswami!! Brain-melt from Moeen Ali. Nothing more than that. Suddenly he has kicked the door wide open for SRH to come back into the game. Rashid Khan's last over and with AB gone, he decides to play a cute reverse paddle, when he was hitting them so well straight down the ground. Such a low-percentage shot and one must applaud Goswami's take. On the rebound and it was a clear deflection too. Moeen Ali walked as soon as Goswami took it. That shot could potentially send RCB out of the tournament. But Moeen Ali plays that way and has got out many times previously very softly. Fantastic innings nonetheless. Moeen Ali c Goswami b Rashid Khan 65(34) [4s-2 6s-6]
14.3
Rashid Khan to Moeen Ali, FOUR, from round the wicket, tossed up and Moeen Ali has smote it back over Rashid Khan's head. Flat hit and bisects long-off and long-on. Super shot. He is continuing his stroke-making
13.6
Sandeep Sharma to Moeen Ali, 1 run, full on the stumps, Moeen Ali flicks wristily and finds deep mid. Another expensive over
13.5
Sandeep Sharma to Moeen Ali, SIX, it has gone for six. A checked loft. Are you serious? Dhawan can only smile wryly, as it loops over his head. Sandeep Sharma deceived Moeen Ali completely, with a slower delivery outside off, Moeen Ali arrested his shot at the last moment, but it just flew and flew
13.4

12.1
Basil Thampi to Moeen Ali, FOUR, Moeen Ali gets to his maiden fifty. Gets a hug from de Villiers. Kohli punches the air in delight. They are happy for him and rightly so. What a time to come to the party. Low full-toss, sliced in the air but in the gap as well
11.6
S Kaul to Moeen Ali, 1 run, short of length outside off, Moeen Ali mistimes the forcing shot to long-off but will keep strike
11.5
S Kaul to Moeen Ali, SIX, Moeen Ali is taking all his frustration at not being selected for the Test side against the SRH bowlers. He was a sureshot selection last year at this time, not anymore. This short ball is at Moeen Ali's chest, he plays a smashing pull high into the deep square leg stands. That was meaty
11.4
S Kaul to de Villiers, 1 run, slower delivery on the stumps, de Villiers knocks it to long-on
10.2
Rashid Khan to Moeen Ali, 2 runs, very full outside off, jammed to deep backward point, where the fielder does extremely well to run around and then dive to cut off the boundary
10.1
Rashid Khan to Moeen Ali, SIX, Moeen Ali is dealing in sixes. Rashid Khan has a wry smile on his face. Down the track and to the pitch before lofting this clean over long-off. The fielder was just a spectator
9.6
Sandeep Sharma to Moeen Ali, 1 run, pacy back of a length delivery on off, hits the bat hard, mistimed to long-off
9.5
Sandeep Sharma to Moeen Ali, SIX, caught by Shikhar Dhawan but goes over the rope. Six more. Moeen Ali powered this flat and over the head of Dhawan at long-on, he caught it well but went one step back and trod on the cushion. Still manages a wry smile and a "ooooohhhhhhh"
9.4
Sandeep Sharma to de Villiers, 1 run, short of length around off, de Villiers punches it firmly off the back foot to sweeper cover
9.2
Sandeep Sharma to Moeen Ali, no run, slogs at a slower delivery outside off and misses it by miles, well bowled and it was outside off
9.1
Sandeep Sharma to Moeen Ali, 2 runs, softly dabbed to short third man, a throw from Thampi, no-one backing up at extra-cover, they take another and almost one more as the throw from sweeper is wide of the stumps and beyond KW's reach, but eventually they settle for two
8.6
Shakib to de Villiers, no run, quicker and flatter on the stumps, de Villiers punches to short cover, three dots in a row. Exceptional over from SRH and Shakib
8.2

7.6
Basil Thampi to Moeen Ali, 1 run, slower delivery again, outside off, driven to sweeper cover
7.5
Basil Thampi to de Villiers, 1 run, on the bounce to deep square leg. Good change-up from Basil Thampi, de Villiers waits and waits, before pulling the slower delivery to the fielder. Good that he didn't connect fully, had he done so, would've either found the fielder or sent it over his head
7.2
Basil Thampi to Moeen Ali, SIX, this is a fine shot. He has a problem with the short ones, much like Raina, but not at that height, at waist-height, he pulls handsomely and sends the white Kookaburra over the deep square leg's head. That shot brings the crowd back to life
7.1
Basil Thampi to Moeen Ali, SIX, Moeen Ali launches Basil Thampi over long-off. Was right in the slot to play the lofted drive, hit it cleanly and went all the way. Basil Thampi came round the wicket and bowled a loosener, paid the price
6.6
Rashid Khan to Moeen Ali, 1 run, now desperate measures. Looks to slog-sweep a full ball on the stumps, the bottom edge saves him, rolls to short fine leg
6.5
Rashid Khan to Moeen Ali, no run, again. Doesn't know how and which way it is turning, digs it onto the boot and Goswami fails to hang on. Had he caught that, Moeen Ali was gone. A chance dropped
6.4
Rashid Khan to Moeen Ali, no run, no clue against the quicker googly, Moeen Ali cuts and misses
6.3
Rashid Khan to de Villiers, 1 run, de Villiers was lining up for a big sweep, but the length is shortened, so he short-arm jabs a pull and gets a single away
5.6
S Kaul to de Villiers, no run, cracking yorker on the stumps, de Villiers can only dig it out. End of the powerplay as well
5.2
S Kaul to Moeen Ali, no run, short of length on off, defended to backward point again
5.1
