Welcome back. Vince and Tom Curran in a chat as they wait to come inside. Coach Andy Flower is there as well.
20:11 Local Time, 16:11 GMT, 21:41 IST: This is some recovery orchestrated by Tom Curran and he's given his team something to defend. 129 might still not be enough on this pitch, but the Giants looked lost when they were reduced to 61 for 8 at the start of the 15th over. Both openers got into double digits, but both looked uncomfortable and then the middle-order was blown away. Sam Curran took 3 and so did Wanindu Hasaranga as the Giants slipped towards misery. However, they had Tom Curran to bank on and he smashed a 34-ball 64*, he did keep strike for most of the 9th wicket partnership with Aayan Khan, the pair adding 68 runs off 29 legal deliveries. Vipers would've taken 129 at the start, but they'll feel they gave away 30-40 extra runs here. Can the Giants take the momentum into their bowling? Back shortly for the chase..

Amir to Aayan Khan, no run, has it carried to Azam Khan? He's claiming it, but the 3rd umpire will have a look. This looks like a 50-50 call anmd the benefit of doubt has gone to Aayan Khan, NOT OUT is the call, much to the disappointment of the Vipers. the slower cutter from Amir, pushed across the right-hander and Aayan Khan was making room for the cut, gets a thick edge that was dying in front of the keeper, but Azam lunges forward and manages to get underneath the delivery -he did claim the catch, but close-in replay suggested that the ball might've touched the ground
Mohammad Amir [3.0-0-26-0] is back into the attack
