OUT! Last thing KXIP wanted was a run-out. Axar Patel has to go, looks a bit harsh though.  Looking for a second run, Axar was little hesitant and eventually fell short of the crease. Axar run out (Binny/Buttler) 9(5)

What an over by K Gowtham. He picks two wickets in this over. First, he removed big man Chris Gayle who was stumped and then bowled Ravi Ashwin, who promoted himself up the order.
