OUT! CAUGHT! WHAT A CATCH FROM Rishi Dhawan (sub). Ellis gets the breakthrough! Bowls a slower delivery yet again. Low full toss on off.

He takes a low and sharp catch to dismiss Jaiswal who departs for a well-made fifty. Rajasthan are four down now.

OUT! In the air and taken. Riyan Parag departs! Pitched up full and at the stumps.
