10.05pm Spare a thought also for Mohsin Khan: 4-0-25-1 in a 207 total.
"Reminder that the last partnership of 92 off 41 balls would have been 0 off 2 balls, had the umpire has given it out LBW for DK. Luck favouring RCB so far." Akhil, that's true too. Bishnoi has been unlucky too tonight. However, LSG made quite a few bowling errors too, which is why they are here. This is the difference between GT last night and LSG tonight: despite all the chaos, GT didn't allow 25-30-run overs. Anyway, I move to match report duties now, and S Sudarshanan will bring you the chase.
9.59pm Eighty-four off the last five overs. Rajat Patidar. Remember the name. What a sensational century to carry RCB past 200. What is Deepak Hooda thinking? It would have been 130 for 5 had he taken the sitter in the 16th over. Instead it opened a can of punishment for the bowlers. Seventy-seven runs since then. Rajat Patidar is out of breath in the mid-match interview. "The timing was good today," he says. "I was just looking to place the ball. I was trying to just time the ball because the wicket is good. It won't be easy to defend 207 but if we bowl well we should be able to win."
