Innings Highlights
| Over No. | Event Type | Event | Team Score |
|---|---|---|---|
| 20 | SIX | Nabi to Dhoni, SIX, a full toss to end the over and Dhoni finishes in style, he stays in the crease and swings it hard over the mid wicket fence. India have got the flourish they required and will be pretty pleased with the total on board. | 159/5 |
| 19.5 | FOUR | Nabi to Dhoni, FOUR, a low full toss, Dhoni brings his bat down in time and hits it very hard with a lot of bottom hand to the long on fence, very good hit that | 153/5 |
| 19.2 | OUT | Nabi to Raina, out Bowled!! Raina skips down the track and tries to go hard on the offside but ends up yorking himself, the quicker delivery shoots through to hit the base of off stump. Raina b Nabi 38(33) [4s-6] | 148/5 |
| 19.1 | FOUR | Nabi to Raina, FOUR, a full toss from Nabi and Raina skips down to hit it hard through mid wicket for another boundary. Just what India need at this stage. | 147/4 |
| 18.5 | FOUR | D Zadran to Dhoni, FOUR, slanted in on the middle and leg, Dhoni rocks back and pulls it very hard and right in the gap between deep mid wicket and long on for a boundary | 143/4 |
| 17.2 | FOUR | Nabi to Raina, FOUR, tossed up on the leg, Raina waits for it and gets his foot out to whip it beautifully wide of the man at deep mid wicket for a boundary | 126/4 |

Innings Highlights
| Over No. | Event Type | Event | Team Score |
|---|---|---|---|
| 19.3 | OUT | Balaji to D Zadran, out Bowled!! That ends the game. Too good for the tail-ender. A yorker straight on the stumps, Zadran backs away and looks to reach out but misses. There were a few nervous moments but India emerge victorious. D Zadran b Balaji 8(5) [4s-2] | 137/10 |
| 19.2 | OUT | Balaji to G Naib, out Caught by Raina!! 9th wicket down. Another short one on the stumps, Naib throws his bat at it and mishits it towards mid off. Raina won't drop those. G Naib c Raina b Balaji 5(14) | 137/9 |
| 19 | FOUR | Irfan Pathan to D Zadran, FOUR, back to back 4s. Full and angled in, D Zadran whips it to deep mid wicket for another boundary | 137/8 |
| 18.5 | FOUR | Irfan Pathan to D Zadran, FOUR, connects it finally, backs away and thumps it between extra cover and mid off for four | 133/8 |
| 17.4 | OUT | Balaji to G Naib, out Najibullah Zadran Run Out!! Poor running from G Naib and it's Najibullah who pays the price. Slow bouncer from Balaji, Naib looks to pull but misses it completely, the ball goes off the body to short third man. There was an easy, easy single and Najibullah kept charging in despite his dodgy hamstring, Naib for some reason stays in his crease and declines the single. Najibullah couldn't recover and get back in time despite the dive. Najibullah Zadran run out (Dhoni/Balaji) 5(2) [4s-1] | 126/8 |
| 17.1 | FOUR | Balaji to Najibullah Zadran, FOUR, superb timing! That was very close to covers but he timed it too well. A better fielder might have stopped it but Zaheer was a bit slow. Just outside off, Najibullah Zadran hits it hard onto the ground, it goes past covers and into the fence | 125/7 |
