India Maharajas vs World Giants Highlights: Naman Ojha century undone by Imran Tahir
Gony strikes

World XI 42/2 after 6
Pietersen attacks but earns Munaf Patel's ire, Trott retires hurt
Pietersen pulls out two massive pulls for sixes against Munaf - gets himself back on strike with a single off the last ball. Pietersen is a man on a mission. Trott at the other end is in trouble - strains his back and is down on the ground, needing medical attention.
Munaf Patel meanwhile is extremely unhappy with something Pietersen did - could be the moment when Piersen ran into a throw - but the Englishman refuses to take him seriously. Badrinath tries to calm Munaf down. 'Ye galat hai,' Munaf is heard saying.
Meanwhile, Trott retires hurt.
World XI 40/1 after 4.2
Venugopal Rao takes a blinder
After a tight first over by RP Singh, Munaf Patel is hit for a few fours by Kevin O' Brien. Venugopal Rao with a 'catch of the match' at fine leg. The Irish batsman is astounded by the catch. He is out for 9. Jonathan Trott joins his old English teammate at 3.
Stuart Binny into the attack in the 3rd over and Pietersen attacks now.
World XI 24/1 after 3
World Giants need 210 to win
Time for the chase. Kevin Pietersen and Kevin O' Brien, two big-hitting Kevins from across the English-Irish border, open the World Giants innings. Yusuf Pathan seen saying something with a big grin to KP as he walks in.
Irfan Pathan has been rested today, RP Singh is in the XI in his place and he takes the new ball for India.
Here's what Naman Ojha posted before today's match:
India score 209/3 in 20 overs
Naman Ojha is out for 140 off 69 balls. Caught in the deep by Imran Tahir, who applauds Ojha as he walks back. Yusuf Pathan comes in to bat in the last over and smashes the last ball for a monstrous six. India score 209/3 in their 20 overs. Ojha (140) and Kaif (53*) the two highest scorers in the innings. Ojha scored the first 100 of this tournament.
Naman Ojha massacres bowlers in slog overs
The Ojha show continues! Back to back fours off Sidebottom, before cracking three sixes and a four in an over against Kevin O Brien. Kaif gets to his 50 with a single but is content to watch the Ojha show from the non-striker's end otherwise.
IND 199/2 after 19, Ojha on 139
100 for Naman Ojha
Naman Ojha is on a roll! Sixes and fours galore! He gets to his 100 with an edge. Celebrates by smashing a six on the off side.
IND 163/2 after 17
Ojha approaches century, Kaif approaches half-century
Tahir has been expensive - spinners have not fared very well in this tournament so far, not even Muralitharan - so far, but he concedes just 5 runs in his last over. Kaif, approaching his 50, is kept quiet by a few yorkers by Albie. Excellent death over bowling from him, just like his CSK and South Africa days. Ojha slams a six to end the 16th over to end the barren period.
IND 146/2 after 16, Ojha on 90, Kaif on 46
100 partnership between Ojha, Kaif
Kaif launches into his second six against Albie Morkel in the 12th over. The captain put on a matchwinning partnership with Pathan last day, he's doing the job with Ojha today. 100 partnership comes up - in 72 balls as the 13th over end with India at 118/2.
IND 128/2 after 14
50 for Naman Ojha
Naman Ojha cuts Tahir for another four to get to his 50, off 35 balls. And he follows in carnage mode, as Sammy bowls the 11th over. Four, six, six!
IND 99/2 after 11
