The rains came in right after the powerplay ended, leading to a short break at which point GT were well behind the DLS par score. When it resumed though, Buttler upped the ante and put them ahead. However, the run rate dropped again and Buttler fell in the 12th over. (PTI)

The drama stayed alive right until the last action of the match with GT sealing off the run chase with a single off the last ball. Rahul Tewatia's four off the first ball and Gerald Coetzee's six off the third, couple with a no ball by Deepak Chahar, led to GT needing one run to win off the last two balls. However, Coetzee fell off the second last ball, which brought it down to GT needing one run to win off the last. They just about managed to take a single, with Pandya missing his throw from mid off and no one being present to collect the ball at the non-striker's end. GT thus won the match by three wickets and went back to the top of the table.(AFP)
