M Amir to R Sharma, FOUR! After the power, comes the placement. Amir overcompensates for the short ball bowled previously and delivers an overpitched one. Rohit leans and exhibits a delightful cover drive. Treat to watch. 137 more to win.

M Amir to R Sharma, THE CROWD COMES TO LIFE. This is what they want to see. Banter. Amir bows this on a length outside off and Rohit calmly defends. The bowler finishes his followthrough, then walks a few steps and chides Rohit. The response from the Indian skipper is first a smile, then perhaps an indication that you do your job, I shall do mine. Amir walks back like an obedient fellow and then smiles while looking at the umpire. The crowd cheers both players. They want more...

M Amir to S Dhawan, Risky run. Dhawan works it towards mid on and calls for a quick single. The fielder comes charging in but then slips while diving and his throw bounces awkwardly past the stumps at the non-striker's end. Now had he not slipped, Dhawan could have been in trouble.

21:23 (IST) Sep 19

A bit of a delay. Shikhar Dhawan is not happy with the disturbance behind the sightscreen. The members are taking their own sweet time to get their dinner or snacks to their seat and are not even sitting down. Busy chatting with the others around, till they are politely informed that the game has been stalled. All ready now.

M Amir to S Dhawan, This one nips back a long way, SD looks to work it to the leg side but misses and gets a thick inside edge onto his pads. Amir screams his lungs out for an LBW appeal but well...
