- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR3.4 make that three dismissals for Deepti against Smriti Mandhana! Fizzed in on a length on middle and off. Mandhana shapes to cut but the ball is neither short enough nor wide enough to be playing that stroke. Gets tucked up for room and only manages an inside edge that goes on to flatten off stump. Mandhana is disappointed as she walks back; Deepti utterly delighted! 23/114.3 miscued and taken, finally! McGrath breaks through, and there is a hush around the ground! Another cutter, bowled into the track. Wyatt-Hodge looks to over the off-side ring but cuts across it too much. Skews it off the outer half of the bat and Sehrawat, who dropped Wyatt-Hodge earlier in the evening, makes no mistake at backward point this time. A vital wicket, but RCB still well-placed for a final onslaught! 117/215.4 goes straight up this time, and Ghosh bites the dust! Banged in short outside off and this has more behind it. Gets big on Ghosh and she cannot get on top of it. Swipes at it anyway and all she manages is a tame miscue. Henry calls early and takes it just to the right of the pitch. Ghosh cannot believe what she has done; Henry, meanwhile, is all smiles! 126/316.1 initially an lbw appeal, but looks like Ahuja has been run out! Flighted up on a length on middle and leg. Ahuja, ambitiously, looks for the reverse and makes a complete mess of it. Gets rapped on the front pad and Deepti is adamant she has dismissed her lbw. She even gestures to review but while all that is happening, Ahuja goes walkabouts and is caught short of her ground by a very alert Uma Chetry. Or so it seems. The umpires have referred it upstairs just to be sure if Ahuja was short of her ground, and possibly also to check if it was an lbw because the lbw, if all is good, should take precedence over a stumping dismissal. No bat involved and Ball Tracking reckons the ball would have only clipped the outside of off stump. Umpire's Call on that count, but Ahuja is a mile outside her crease. So it will be a run-out dismissal, and RCB have been dented again! 136/418.1 oh dear - catastrophe for RCB! This is a little shorter outside off. Wareham jams it towards cover point and then gets called through for a non-existent single. Wareham realises one of the batters will have to be run-out and decides that that batter should be her. Tries to get across to the bowler's end but is not even in the frame as the throw is relayed to Deepti, who takes off the bails! 158/519.6 sensational bit of work in the field to cap off the innings! Low full toss just outside off. Perry advances and drills it towards long off. Garth was always going to come back for two and is favourite to get there, especially with the throw being wild and wide. Ecclestone, though, does superbly to gather well away from the stumps and then back-flick it onto timber. Stunning awareness and execution, and RCB end up with 180! 180/6Extras5 (nb 2, w 3)TOTAL180/6 (20 Overs, RR: 9)Fall of wickets: 1-23 (Smriti Mandhana, 3.4 ov), 2-117 (Danni Wyatt-Hodge, 14.3 ov), 3-126 (Richa Ghosh, 15.4 ov), 4-136 (Kanika Ahuja, 16.1 ov), 5-158 (Georgia Wareham, 18.1 ov), 6-180 (Kim Garth, 19.6 ov)

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR2.5 stumps light up, and the crowd roars! It is that in-swing again and it gets the better of Navgire on this occasion. Slanted in full and the ball shapes in just enough to go past Navgire's swing. She had advanced too and might have gotten too close to the ball (in terms of the length) as well. Leg stump knocked back, and that is just the breakthrough RCB would have wanted! 30/14.3 soft, soft dismissal, and Renuka has two! Fullish outside off. Vrinda's eyes light up and she looks to chip this over mid off. Does not generate the power she wants, though, and hits it rather tamely towards Mandhana, who tracks it all the way and then holds onto it smartly over her head. The RCB fans find their voice again, and Vrinda walks off dejected! 48/27.6 massive, massive appeal for a caught-behind, and RCB review straightaway! Back of a length, pitching on off and spinning away. Deepti tries to play with the spin behind point and there seems to be a noise as the ball passes the bat. Rana and Ghosh certainly felt that way and the promptness of the review suggests Mandhana had no doubts either. And replays confirm the RCB players' suspicions. A clear nick off the glove, and an excellent take behind the stumps by Ghosh. Deepti has to trod back, and this is a huge moment in the game! 72/45.2 stumped by a mile, and Sneh Rana is pumped! Dangles the carrot outside off and McGrath bites. She advances but is done in the air all ends up. The ball goes on with the arm too and McGrath, in the end, runs past it. Ghosh whips off the bails and the Warriorz, in a trice, are three down! 50/314.1 and Perry breaks through! Oh my word - is there anything this woman cannot do on a cricket field?! Fullish in the sixth stump channel. Seems to nip away a touch and Sehrawat goes fishing at it away from her body. A loose shot really in the circumstances and she feathers it through to Ghosh. RCB go bang-bang, and the Warriorz's chase, all of a sudden, is in danger of flat-lining! 123/710.5 straight down Sneh Rana's throat! Slot ball outside off and nine times out of ten, Harris would have smashed this into Cubbon Park. This season, though, she has just been off her game and she cannot pick the slower ball early enough. Chalks it off the toe-end and Rana, despite a juggle on the long on fence, clings on. Warriorz continue losing wickets! 93/513.6 Wareham does not drop many, and she does not drop this either! Slowed up, enticing the slog with a fullish ball on the stumps. Chetry cannot resist that temptation and while she gets a good piece of it, she does not muster enough elevation. Wareham judges it to perfection and completes the catch with a slight leap. The crowd are up and about again, and the Warriorz, who have kept the required run-rate in check, are now six down! 123/616.2 chopped on, and the Chinnaswamy finds its collective voice, and this is the most rasping and raucous version yet! Slower ball banged into the track outside off. Henry clears her front hip and swings for the hills. Loses her shape completely and loses her leg stump soon after. A simple chop-on and Henry is livid with herself but can only afford a sheepish smile given the situation of the game. Excellent piece of bowling, though. Henry wanted pace, and Garth denied her exactly that component. A monumental and possibly game-defining moment! 134/819.6 Richa Ghosh does what MS Dhoni did all those years ago at this very venue against Bangladesh and we are going into a Super Over! Carnage at the Chinnaswamy! Box-office drama and Ecclestone, who brought the Warriorz to the cusp of a heroic and a stupendous win, is the one to be run out. By a distance, it must be said, and Goud does not know where to look. A completely different look on the RCB players' faces and those in the crowd - they know they have somehow managed to eke out a Super Over! Back to the ball now. This is full outside off and Goud swishes at it with all her might. Does not make contact and that brings Ghosh into play. She holds her nerve, she holds the ball and runs up to the stumps to catch Ecclestone half-way out of her crease. It is pandemonium in Bengaluru, and this game, which had no business going so deep, now has two more overs in it, and there is still no clarity on who will win it in the end! 180/1018.5 that is a terrible, terrible call, and Saima is nowhere in the frame! Shortish on the stumps. Saima stays back and shovels it towards deep mid wicket. Both batters, for some reason, decide on the second and there was no chance they were ever going to make it. The throw goes to the batter's end and Saima, despite a sprawling dive, only completes half of the second run. The Warriorz nine down now, and on the brink! 161/9Extras7 (lb 1, w 6)TOTAL180 all out (20 Overs, RR: 9)Fall of wickets: 1-30 (Kiran Navgire, 2.5 ov), 2-48 (Dinesh Vrinda, 4.3 ov), 3-50 (Tahlia McGrath, 5.2 ov), 4-72 (Deepti Sharma, 7.6 ov), 5-93 (Grace Harris, 10.5 ov), 6-123 (Uma Chetry, 13.6 ov), 7-123 (Shweta Sehrawat, 14.1 ov), 8-134 (Chinelle Henry, 16.2 ov), 9-161 (Saima Thakor, 18.5 ov), 10-180 (Sophie Ecclestone, 19.6 ov)
