Dwayne Bravo to A Patel, SIX, wow! What an effort from Faf. Slower ball just outside off, Axar drags the loft towards long-on, got plenty of wood to clear the rope. Faf leapt up, went with his right-hand, but the ball eludes him. Even if he had saved the six, it would have been a top effort

Dwayne Bravo to A Patel, out Caught by Dhoni!! Wicket No. 20 for Bravo. It was once again the slower delivery that deceives the batsman. Bravo bowled it well wide of off, Axar reaches out, looks to go leg-side, the top-edge goes straight up and to the left of MS, who calls for it and takes it calmly. A good innings from Axar comes to an end. A Patel c Dhoni b Dwayne Bravo 32(29) [4s-2 6s-1]

Even gets an applause from Dhoni. CHN continue to take some terrific catches. D Miller c Ravindra Jadeja b Negi 11(15) [4s-1]
