6.6OUT! Huge misunderstanding and that brings about a run out. This is surely not what Delhi wanted at this stage. Slower through the air on off, Iyer taps it towards covers.

5.1SIX! What a way to get off the mark! This is fuller on middle by Watson. Pant plants his front foot forward and lifts it over the mid-wicket fence.

4.6OUT! In the air... taken! Once again Asif has the last laugh. He has gone for two boundaries and a biggie on the last three balls but strikes back with his second wicket. It is the shorter ball this time and it is on the body. Munro goes for the pull but only manages to get a top edge. It goes high up in the air towards deep square leg where Karn Sharma takes a good catch. The dangerous Munro departs and Delhi in trouble here. They need 166 from 90. 46/2

4.5SIX! So two boundaries and a biggie to follow now. This is short and on middle. Munro upper cuts it over the slip cordon and it seems to have carried all the way. They go upstairs to check and it has hit the rope on the full.

1.4OUT! Asif has the last laugh! A shot too many by Shaw! This one is short again on off, Shaw tries to play the pull shot but the ball hurries onto him. It takes the top edge and lobs towards Jadeja at mid on who takes a couple of steps back and pouches it. An early wicket for Chennai and this is something Delhi did not need. The free-flowing Shaw makes his way back cheaply this time.

1.3FOUR! This is even better than the last shot! Fuller on middle, Shaw hits it through mid on and there is no stopping that. Second boundary from the over.

1.2A bumper on middle, Shaw ducks under it.

1.1FOUR! Hits it to the safest place on the field... over the bowler's head. Short and on off, Shaw hits it down the ground and the ball races away to the fence. First boundary in this innings.

1.1WIDE! Not a good start by him. Down the leg side and the umpire calls it a wide.
