Amit M: "@Bezz thats an insight RR team is going to cherish !"

Bezz: "Below par score but with today's RCB batting lineup RR will be in the game if they can get the big 3. "

Jamal Wahid : "What a come back by RR!! Though they have lost the wickets, managed to end the innings towards a decent finish. "

Sundar: "From 43-4 this is a very good score. But from where they were 2 overs ago, I'd say they are about 10 runs short."

9.22pm Superb work from Rajasthan's middle order here to pull things back. They were 43 for 4 with all the main batters gone, and it took a partnership between Shivam Dube and Riyan Parag to keep them alive. That partnership came at good pace too, and set it up for a lovely little counter-punch from Tewatia at the end. RCB had a stellar beginning to this game, and look pretty confident walking off. Dew is a very serious reality at this ground and a target of 178 doesn't look impossible with the way the pitch is playing. It is slow occasionally, but their strokemakers will welcome it overall. See you soon for the chase.
