Anrich Nortje who is brought into the attack concedes the boundary to begin the over. Was the full and wide-yorker which is clobbered towards the covers for four runs.

He is standing deep in his crease and gets it above the mid-on for the boundary. In the final delivery, Dhoni goes big once again and finds the maximum towards the point boundary.

There it is. The plan of leaving Mukesh Kumar for the final stages of the innings has worked as they got the wicket of Ajinkya Rahane. A slower delivery which Rahane did not pick up on and mistimes it for a catch to the reliable hands of David Warner at the mid-wicket boundary.
He follows it up with another as Sameer Rizvi is cramped for room and gets the outside edge which carries towards the short-third man to take the catch.
