2327 hrs IST: SIX! Pant hits the Mustafizur full toss all the way for a maximum. DD need only 3 for win now

2307 hrs IST: Samson with the hard hit and it travels through Henriques hands
2306 hrs IST: Bhuvneshwar Kumar into the attack now. Asking rate not alarming, singles would do the job for DD

2249 hrs IST: WICKET! Quinton de Kock is also out! Caught behind. He tries an upper cut but misses and simultaneously his helmet comes off and falls. Henriques appeals for long for caught behind. Umpire gives no decision. De Kock shakes his head to suggest that there is no edge. Umpire raises his finger then. De Kock stands in disbelief
