Sunil Narine to Abdul Samad
A confident appeal for LBW but turned down! After having a word with the keeper and the bowler, Shreyas Iyer takes the review. It looked close at first glance though. Narine bowls it fractionally short, on middle and leg, Abdul Samad gets half-forward and fails to smother the spin. The ball turns in sharply and goes past the inside edge. It goes on to hit the back pad and there is nothing on UltraEdge. However, the Ball Tracking shows that the ball is just clipping the leg stump and it is umpire's call. Samad survives a close shout.

DROPPED! Phil Salt puts it down! To rub salt into wounds, it goes away for a boundary. Starc gets the ball to shape away from the left-hander, fuller in length, Abhishek Sharma goes for the drive away from his body and gets an outside edge. It is headed straight to first slip but Phil Salt goes after it and sticks out his left glove. He only manages to get fingertips to it and it races away for a boundary.

Harshit Rana to Mayank Agarwal
Given LBW but decision overturned successfully! A confident review from Mayank Agarwal! Rana angles it back in, on a good length, on middle and leg, Mayank Agarwal looks to flick it away off his pads but plays all around it. The ball sneaks past the inside edge and pings him on the front pad. There is nothing on UltraEdge but the ball is going down leg on Ball Tracking.

Strategic break! Hyderabad are off to a solid start here in pursuit of a mammoth total of 209 runs. They did lose Mayank Agarwal in the previous over but Abhishek Sharma is looking in good nick and will look to tick along nicely with the newly arrived Rahul Tripathi. As for Kolkata, they have not gotten their lines and lengths right yet and no turn for Varun Chakaravarthy has made it worse for them. Having managed to dismiss Agarwal, the hosts will look to squeeze in quiet overs and make the required run rate go up. Sunil Narine comes on to bowl now.
