19.4: Brijesh Sharma to Marcus Stoinis, SIX! FIFTY FOR STOINIS! A waist height full toss, around off, Marcus Stoinis gets up on his toes and slogs this from the middle of his bat for a huge biggie over square to complete his half-century. What a blinder of a knock this has been by Stoinis. He walked in when the situation wasn't all that good for the home side and is helping them reach a really strong total. Stoinis sends this upstairs for a check on the fairness of the ball. The replay shows that the ball's trajectory is under the waist of Stoinis, and the on-field decision of a fair delivery stays.

6
19.3: Brijesh Sharma to Marcus Stoinis, SIX! MUSCLED AWAY! Low full toss, around middle and off, Marcus Stoinis gets underneath it and uses his bottom hand to muscle this over the fence towards the cow corner region for a massive biggie. The Hulk moves to 48 off 19.

Iyer looks to heave it, but the ball is away from his body, and the skipper of PBKS ends up miscuing it off the cue end of his bat. The ball balloons towards the short fine leg region where Yash Punja is already waiting for it, and Vaibhav Sooryavanshi runs to his right from backward square leg to claim it as well. Dhruv Jurel, donning the gloves, calls for it and holds onto it.

17.3: Nandre Burger to Marcus Stoinis, FOUR! It continues to be a poor outing yet again with the ball for Nandre.

The bat turns in his hand at the time of contact and the ball goes off the inner half of his bat through the mid-wicket region for four runs.

6
17.2: Nandre Burger to Marcus Stoinis, SIX! THE HULK GOES BIG! Pitched-up delivery, around middle and off, Marcus Stoinis plants his back foot deep inside the crease, gets right underneath the ball and smashes this deep into the crowd towards the long on region for a massive biggie.
