Fuller and outside off, Shashank Singh tries to drive it away but gets it from the toe-end towards third man for a single.

Back of a length and around off, Jitesh Sharma cuts it towards deep point for a run.

Short of a length and outside off, Shashank Singh slices it hard but finds deep point again. Just another run.

FOUR! Up and over! T Natarajan goes fuller this time, outside off, Jitesh Sharma steps across, reaches for it and smacks it over extra covers for a boundary. Punjab needs a few more of these!

T Natarajan bangs in a bouncer now, on off, Jitesh Sharma leaves it alone. He is asking his partner if that was a wide, but decides against the review.

Short of a length and on off, Jitesh Sharma miscues his pull through mid-wicket for one. Punjab needs 78 runs in the last five overs!

IN THE AIR...AND DROPPED! Bangs it short on the stumps, Jitesh Sharma mistimes his pull shot that slices off his bat over the keeper's head. It travels in the air for a long time. T Natarajan from deep fine leg runs to his left to catch but he overruns a bit and puts it down. They cross for a brace. How costly will this drop prove to be for Hyderabad? Only time will tell.

WIDE! Short of a length at the leg stump, Jitesh clips it to deep mid-wicket for a couple.

SIX! BOOM! On the hard length around off. Jitesh charges down and tonks it over the long-off for a six. Much, much needed for Punjab.

OUT! TAKEN! Punjab slide further into the drain and another disappointing outing for Jitesh Sharma but a brilliant catch by Abhishek Sharma in the deep! Bangs it short again on the stump line, Jitesh Sharma mistimes his pull shot over the mid-wicket region. Abhishek Sharma covers a good amount of ground as he runs to his front from the deep, and puts in a timely dive before taking a stunning catch. 

Short and on middle, Ashutosh Sharma pulls it towards deep square leg for a single.

Another short delivery, on middle and leg, Shashank Singh swipes it towards deep square leg for one.

Good end to the over from Nitish Kumar Reddy! He nails the slower bouncer here, on middle, Ashutosh Sharma tries to ramp it away but misses.

EDGED AND FOUR! Outside off on a length, Shashank Singh throws his bat at it and it slices off his outside edge for a boundary over short third.

FOUR! Oh, what a shot! Offers a half-volley on off, Shashank Singh uses the bottom hand strongly and drives it through covers for a boundary. Back to back fours for Shashank.

Full in length, and in front of the stumps, Shashank Singh flicks it to deep mid-wicket for a single.

Outside off on a length, Ashutosh Sharma works it towards long off for an easy single.

FOUR! There's no stopping to Shashank as he keeps finding boundaries with ease! Almost a half-tracker outside off, Shashank Singh uses the width, gets on the top of the ball, and slaps it over covers for a boundary on a couple of bounces.

WIDE! Way outside off and beyond the tramline, this is given as a Wide.

WIDE! Another extra delivery! A close call though! Bhuvneshwar Kumar bowls it right on the tramline on a fuller length, Shashank Singh leaves it. Heinrich Klaasen believes that it is a fair delivery and Hyderabad go upstairs to review it. The split-screen clearly shows that the ball has passed beyond the tramline. So a review burnt here by Hyderabad and the onfield decision stands.

Almost a yorker outside off, Shashank Singh manages to squeeze it toward deep point for a single to end the 17th over. 17 runs from it and this game is far from over.

Cummins lands it on the top of off on a length, Shashank Singh shuffles to his right and drags it to deep mid-wicket for a single.

FOUR! Ashutosh Sharma joins the party now! Possibly the shot of the evening! On the back of a length around off, Ashutosh Sharma ferociously drives it through covers for a boundary.

FOUR! Literally toying around the field at the moment these two! Short and on off, Ashutosh Sharma watches it closely before guiding it over the keeper's head for a boundary. These two are putting on a serious show yet again.

Slows the pace on off, on a length, Ashutosh Sharma drills it to deep mid-wicket for a run.

In the air...but safe! Short in length, wide of off, Shashank Singh shuffles across off and mistimes it over mid on for a single, as the ball lands just ahead of the long on fielder.

Full, around off, Ashutosh Sharma clears his front leg and smashes it hard but finds the mid off fielder to end the over. A superb spell from the Hyderabad skipper comes to an end. Punjab still in the hunt of 39 of the last two overs.

Wide of off, and a wide yorker, Shashank Singh bends low and digs it out to deep backward point for a single.

FOUR! Oh, that is some shot from Ashutosh! T Natarajan slants it across off and bowls a low full toss, Ashutosh Sharma detects the line early and shuffles across off, and sits down on his knee before dragging the slog-sweep through the gap between deep mid-wicket and long on.

 Brilliant comeback from Natarajan. Bowls a yorker on the stumps and Ashutosh can only dig it out straight back to the bowler. Crucial dot.

Nicely bowled again. Yorker outside off, Ashutosh Sharma guides it to deep backward point for a single.

FOUR! Clever batting display from Shashank Singh! Way outside off and a low full toss, Shashank Singh reaches to it by shuffling across off and ramps it over short fine for a boundary.

Brilliant bowling again! Nails a perfect yorker on off, Shashank Singh is a bit late to bring his bat down in time and the ball zips past through to the keeper. Punjab need 29 off the last 6 legal deliveries.

SIX! Oh, dear! This is a sheer mockery! Another one put down and the result is the same, A SIX! On a length on off, Ashutosh Sharma makes some room for himself before slapping it flatly towards long off where the fielder miscalculates the jump and results in a six as the ball bursts through his hands and goes into the fence.

 A short delivery into the pitch on off, Ashutosh drags it towards deep square leg and scampers back for the second. 13 needed off the last 3 now.

 A slower delivery dug into the pitch outside off, Ashutosh Sharma pulls it in front of square. Rahul Tripathi from deep square leg runs to his left and stops it. He throws it to Klaasen who whips the bails but Ashutosh is just home in time. 11 needed off the last couple of balls.

WIDE! 10 off 2 now! Wide of off on a length, Ashutosh Sharma leaves it and the Umpire calls it a Wide. Tensions running high across the ground.

THIRD CATCH PUT DOWN IN THIS OVER! Jaydev Unadkat takes the pace off from the ball and bowls it on a length, Ashutosh Sharma heaves it strongly straight towards deep square leg where Rahul Tripathi settles underneath the ball, but puts an easy catch down. Allows two runs. Jaydev Unadkat just need to ball a legal ball here to wrap up things.

SIX! SMASHED! But Hyderabad take the game marginally by 2 runs, but what a sensational chase this has been! Jaydev Unadkat offers a juicy half-volley on off, Shashank Singh clears his front foot and hoists it up and over long off for a mighty six. Shashank Singh and Ashutosh Sharma, nearly, just nearly did the job yet again for Punjab but they end up on the other side. What a superb game of cricket we have witnessed!
