Chennai Superstars innings (20 overs maximum)		R	M	B	4s	6s	SR
IJ Harvey	c Saqlain Mushtaq b Naved-ul-Hasan	29	26	21	5	0	138.09
5.3 and Rana has his man as he bowls one fuller outside the off stump and Harvey is lured into the stroke as he is looking to loft it away but the bat turns in his hand and the ball is spooned up to Saqlain Musthaq at mid-off 52/2
G Vignesh	b Mohammad Sami	6	10	5	1	0	120.00
2.2 timber. Sami has his man as Vignesh is backing away even as the ball is being bowled and pays the penalty as he fails to read the length and is looking to loft it away but all he manages to get is an edge onto his off stump. The look on Law's face said it all 19/1
RP Arnold	b Saqlain Mushtaq	26	35	18	3	0	144.44
9.5 the wily magician is at it now. Saqlain bowls a doosra outside the off stump, Arnold picks it off the pitch and is looking to defend it but it breaches all the barriers and takes out the off-stump. Isn't Saqlain ecstatic ? 85/3
HK Badani	b Saqlain Mushtaq	37	47	29	2	1	127.58
15.4 Saqlain has his man. Badani, is looking to come down the track and loft it away over long-off. He fails to read the straight delivery and is castled. Doesn't the wicket come at the right time for the Badshahs? 135/4
R Sathish	c Mohammad Sami b Shahid Nazir	37	39	28	5	0	132.14
17.4 short outside the off stump. Sathish gets onto the back foot and is looking to pull it away. He plays the stroke a touch too early as he gets a top edge that flies straight into the hands of Sami, positioned at third man 147/6
SG Law*	c †Khalid Mahmood b Naved-ul-Hasan	2	6	4	0	0	50.00
16.6 whispering death this as Rana bowls a slower delivery outside the off stump. Law, moves back and is looking to loft it away but all that he manages is a feathered outside edge back to the keeper and Rana, again gets the breakthrough 145/5
SV Saravanan	not out	11	17	6	0	1	183.33

VC Naidu†	b Naved-ul-Hasan	1	5	4	0	0	25.00
18.4 reverse swing and Vivek is bamboozled as he looks to loft it away and is beaten. He does not even turn back to see the wreckage caused 150/7
R Jesuraj	not out	7	6	5	0	0	140.00

Lahore Badshahs innings (target: 166 runs from 20 overs)		R	M	B	4s	6s	SR
Imran Nazir	c Harvey b Jesuraj	11	5	6	1	1	183.33
1.2 gone. Fuller outside the off stump, Nazir comes forward and drives it straight into the waiting hands of Harvey at extra cover and what a start for the Superstars 15/1
Imran Farhat	c Arnold b Sathish	45	37	24	5	3	187.50
7.4 deceived by the slower ball. Farhat, comes forward and is looking to cut it away but gets a top edge that flies straight to Arnold at point. Is this the break that the Superstars were looking for? Well lets wait and watch 75/3
Naved-ul-Hasan	c Law b Sathish	14	15	11	3	0	127.27
4.2 fuller on the leg stump, Rana can do nothing but clip it straight into the hands of Law at midwicket and is angry at himself for playing that shot. Will this be the beginning of a collapse? I hope not 47/2
