Anrich Nortje to Kane Williamson
On off, Kane Williamson looked to work it on the leg side but gets an inside edge onto his pads. It deflects behind square on the off side and they take a run.
14.2
6
Anrich Nortje to Abdul Samad
SIX! That is the way to go Abdul. Short ball, Samad goes back and pulls it atrociously and well over deep mid-wicket.

Anrich Nortje to Abdul Samad
FOUR! And again. Slower ball outside off, Samad clears his front leg and cuts it fiercely through point.

Anrich Nortje to Abdul Samad
EDGED AND FOUR! Big over for Hyderabad. Full and well outside off, within the tramline though. Abdul Samad throws the kitchen sink at it. Gets a thickish and uppish outside edge. It is flying towards the third man boundary. Lands on a bounce ahead and then rolls into the fence.

Anrich Nortje to Abdul Samad
Full and on off, wristed to mid-wicket for a single.

Anrich Nortje to Kane Williamson
Good from Nortje on the last ball. But 16 runs off it. Hyderabad need 61 runs in 30 balls. A well-directed yorker on off, Kane manages to dig it out on the pitch. A dot.

Ravichandran Ashwin to Abdul Samad
Flatter and outside off, Samad looks to cut but gets it off the outside edge. It goes past Pant and towards third man. A couple.

Ravichandran Ashwin to Kane Williamson
FOUR! In the gap and away for a boundary. Ashwin bowls a shorter one way outside off, it was the doosra. Williamson strokes it with the turn, over point. Nortje gives chase but the ball beats him to the boundary.

Ravichandran Ashwin to Kane Williamson
In the air... but short! On off, Williamson strokes it uppishly towards long on. But it falls well short of Patel there. Axar did not go for the catch as it was well ahead of him, choosing to save what could have been a possible boundary. Just the single. 51 runs needed in the last 4 overs.
16.1
1
Marcus Stoinis to Kane Williamson
Low full toss well outside off, stroked to the right of cover. Nortje gets there and stops it. A single though. 50-run partnership between these two. Off just 27 balls.

Marcus Stoinis to Abdul Samad
Outside off, Abdul Samad strokes it to the right of sweeper cover. Kagiso Rabada rushes to his right, dives and gives it his all. Stops it and keeps it down to two.

Marcus Stoinis to Kane Williamson
FOUR! Brilliant, brilliant. Around off on a good length, Kane opens the face of his bat deliberately late, knows Rabada is there at backward point. Gets it wide of him and gets it into the boundary.
16.5
W
Marcus Stoinis to Kane Williamson
OUT! TAKEN! Heartache for all the Hyderabad fans. Williamson, what an innings, 67 from 45. Full and well outside off, Williamson slices the ball while going for a drive. Would have been a wide had he left it. But he goes after it, slices it over cover. It is to the left of Rabada at deep cover. KG gets there and completes the catch.

Ravichandran Ashwin to Abdul Samad
NOT OUT! Rashid is in safely. Tossed up on middle, Samad goes for the big leg side heave. He though gets it off the inner half to short fine leg. They take a quick single. The throw comes to Pant who whips the bails off. The umpires refer it upstairs. Rashid Khan gets in safely though, the replays show.

18.3
W
Kagiso Rabada to Abdul Samad
OUT! CAUGHT! The substitute fielder, Keemo Paul, takes the catch. Samad is very dejected. Full and around off, Abdul Samad clears the front leg and looks to go big over long off. However, he does not get the timing right. It is to the right of Keemo at long off. Paul gets there, slides and takes the catch comfortably.
18.4

Kagiso Rabada to Rashid Khan
OUT! TAKEN! Hyderabad lose Rashid Khan now. Full and around off, Rashid clears his front foot and looked to power this over long on for a six. However, he does not get his timing right. Catching practice to the fielder at long on, who takes this one easily.

Kagiso Rabada to Shreevats Goswami
OUT! TAKEN! The third wicket in the over. Short ball, Shreevats goes for the pull shot. However, he does not time it well at all. It goes high in the air and the man at mid-wicket takes it comfortably. Goswami goes for a duck.

Kagiso Rabada to Shahbaz Nadeem

Anrich Nortje to Sandeep Sharma
Well, a little moment of comedy in the end. Sandeep Sharma moves too far to the leg side, Anrich Nortje bowls it very full on off, Sharma brings the bat down in time. Digs it out on the off side for a dot. But it does not matter. DELHI WIN BY 17 RUNS AND ARE THROUGH TO THE FINALS!
