Rashid Khan took 3 for 19 as Gujarat Lions could only muster 135 in their 20 overs as every Gujarat batsmen looked subdued in from of the 19 year old magician from Afghanistan.

With the Lions at 56 for 4, a 56 run stand for the fifth wicket by Dwyane Smith (37) and Dinesh Karthik (30) helped Gujarat reach a score of some respectability, after the initial slide. There were only 11 fours and 2 sixes in the entire Gujarat innings as Rashid Khan gave the batsmen a hard time with his variations.

All of Rashid's wickets were top order batsmen. He dismissed Mccullum, Raina and Finch to break the backbone of the Gujarat batting line up.

Hyderabad now need 136 to win and which looks well within their size, especially with their top order in good touch with Yuvraj Singh the man to watch out for.

Bhuvneshwar Kumar chipped in with two wickets and Ashish Nehra took one.
