K Williamson b Morris 27 (24b)

---

Over 18 | Score 135/5

M Henriques lbw b Mohammed Shami 0 (1b)

---

Over 15 | Score 113/3

Mishra continued. After being clobbered for a six over long-on, Mishra foxed Yuvi with a seam-up quick delivery. The left-hander miscued his shot and Pant completed a tricky catch at short fine leg.

Duminy continued. Two sweep shots and two fours for Dhawan. The first one past short fine leg and the second  to backward square leg boundary. SRH need the left-hander to bat right through today.

---

Over 9 | Score 68/1

Yadav bowled his final over. After being smoked for a boundary on the third ball, Yadav exacted his revenge on the very next ball as he cleaned up Warner. The quicker ball foxed the left-hander there.
