What Happened

The Royals are unchanged while the Titans have one change with Sai Kishore coming back into the team. 14 off 18 needed and Washington is dismissed off the very first ball of the 18th over as he tries to finish things quickly.

• He takes another single and Jadeja sees off this over with two dots.

• There's an overthrow now which enables the youngster to get back on strike.

• Siraj will bowl his final over and he bangs the first one in short as Sooryavanshi swivels and gets it over fine leg for a SIX!!

Key Details

Archer in to bowl the 17th and after a couple of deliveries, Washington gets 4 more. Goes one better as he drives the next one over the rope for a SIX!!

• What a forehand as ADB compares Sooryavanshi to Rafa Nadal after that hit.

• Follows that up with another four in the same region!!

• Gill was chasing after it and looks like he has hurt his neck a bit from all that straining from looking up.

Why It Matters

• AAAND HE SLAMS ANOTHER ONE OVER THE BOUNDARY FOR SIX!!

• Holder will continue and he slams the first ball over the in-field for a four to start!!
