Ehsan Khan 2-65(10 ov)
41.6
Ehsan Khan to Karthik, FOUR, takes it from the sticks and laps it fine for a four. That was very nicely improvised. Just used the pace of the bowler and angle of the bowler to paddle it past the man at short fine leg fielder
41.5
Ehsan Khan to Kedar Jadhav, 1 run, too full, driven down the ground to long-off
41.4
Ehsan Khan to Dhoni, out Caught by Scott McKechnie!! Looks to run it down and steers it to the keeper for him to be gobbled up. The batsman walked. That was a fine edge and he did not hang back for the umpire's signal. India losing couple of wickets and Hong Kong making a mini recovery. The ball again turned in a little to take the edge.
