Fabian Allen to Jonny Bairstow
Oh, dear! Bairstow would be irritated by now. This is probably a 5th Allen ball that was short and wide and Bairstow nailed the shot but found the fielder.

Arshdeep Singh to Kane Williamson
 Excellent effort from Moises Henriques! It will go down as a drop but it was a very tough chance. Length ball around off, Williamson comes down the track and looks to punch it through covers. He hits it uppishly to the right of short cover. Moises Henriques dives and gets his hand to it but the ball does not sit in. Single taken but certainly a boundary saved.

Arshdeep Singh to Jonny Bairstow
Length ball around leg, Bairstow looks to play it on the leg side but gets an inside edge onto the pads. The ball goes to the leg side and they take a run.

Arshdeep Singh to Kane Williamson
Slower bumper. Williamson was ready to play it towards third man. He has to wait for the ball to come. Kane waits and plays it through point but off the lower half of his bat. Single taken and that brings up 100 for Hyderabad. They still need 21 from 24 balls. This game is certainly not over folks.

Murugan Ashwin to Kane Williamson
 A very loopy ball which is very full on off. Williamson chops it to the leg side and looks for a run but Bairstow quickly says no to it.  4 off the over. Hyderabad need 17 in 18 balls now. Is there a twist in this tale?

Deepak Hooda to Jonny Bairstow
 FOUR! FIFTY FOR BAIRSTOW! This has been a very good knock from Bairstow. One of his slowest fifties but he has surely decided to do the job himself. A much-needed boundary too as this will calm a lot of nerves. Short on middle, Bairstow goes on his back foot and swats it over square leg for a boundary.

Deepak Hooda to Jonny Bairstow
A little yes, no but luckily no damage done. Flatter on off, Bairstow taps it to cover. The initial call is for a run. Jonny comes halfway down the track but Williamson sends him back. Luckily there is a midfield so no damage.

 SIX! Take that! Arshdepp goes full and in the slot with the pace on. Bairstow smokes it over the cow corner region for a biggie.

Arshdeep Singh to Jonny Bairstow
 DROPPED! A tough chance for Hooda and he cannot hold onto it. Full on off, Bairstow looks to hit it straght down the ground. It is to the right of mid off. Hooda there stretches and misjudges it as the ball hits his forearm and goes away.  Two taken.

Arshdeep Singh to Kane Williamson
WIDE! Anticlimactic end to the game! Hyderabad get their first win of the season. Short ball wide outside off. It is the slower bumper. It goes over the head and away outside off. Williamson leaves it alone. HYDERABAD WIN BY 9 WICKETS!
