- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR3.4 Gaikwad is ruled out lbw. Height the factor? He asks for the review. He didn't connect the attempted heave off a length ball and got hit on the back thigh. Surely high? No! Clipping the stumps! One of those things that goes against you when you are not it form. Looked good but has to walk back. CSK don't lose a review even though they lose a wicket. 19/118.5 Finally a wicket for RCB and Hasaranga! Breaks the 165-run stand. The non-celebration from the Royall Challengers says it all. Was a googly on the shorter side, Uthappa picks Kohli at deep midwicket to perfection to walk back with 88 against his name. 201/36.4 Sensational fielding display. Suyash Prabhudessai making an impression early in the game. Flatter and quicker outside off, cut towards backward point. Seemed to be passing the fielder but for a diving stop. Moeen was down in search of a run and stood no chance of getting back after an accurate throw to the wicketkeeper. 36/218.6 Just a one-ball stay for the skipper. Hasaranga has two-in-two but that's it from him tonight. Tossed up googly around middle, Jadeja goes for the slog. Gets it high in the air. Rawat at deep midwicket settles underneath it and takes it safely. Something to cheer for RCB. 201/4Extras13 (b 4, lb 2, nb 1, w 6)TOTAL216/4 (20 Overs, RR: 10.8)Fall of wickets: 1-19 (Ruturaj Gaikwad, 3.4 ov), 2-36 (Moeen Ali, 6.4 ov), 3-201 (Robin Uthappa, 18.5 ov), 4-201 (Ravindra Jadeja, 18.6 ov)

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR2.5 swung away but can't clear long-on. Faf had a grimace as he made contact. First wicket in the IPL for Theekshana and it's a massive one. Faf can't make a big one against his former team. 14/15.6 got him with a super delivery! Theekshana takes off on a celebratory run that would make Imran Tahir proud. Rawat has reviewed. This one cuts back in sharply to beat Rawat, who tries to whip that across the line. He's hit on the back pad and the ball didn't have a long way to travel. he got into a terrible tangle there and ball tracking comes back to show three reds. 42/34.1 he has picked out deep square! Dube takes a good catch running in grom the ropes. Mukesh bowls length, gets it to nip back into middle, Kohli whips it uppishly - the timing is good - but it's as if he forgot there was a man in the deep precisely for that. 20/26.5 got him! Maxwell is beaten by the fizz on this arm ball. Swung through a tad early and missed. The length wasn't quite there to pull. This one rushed onto him as well. RCB in tatters. 50/414.3 got him this time! Don't need anyone's assistance to pick wickets if you can bowl magicballs like that. It's the carromball that fizzes back in off a length to hurrty Shahbaz into a defensive stroke. Sneaked through the gap to smash into the stumps 133/612.2 got him! Suyash steps out to hoick him over midwicket but ends up being defeated by the drift and sharp turn away. He swung through a tad early as well, so even if the ball didn't hit the stumps, he would've been stumped. Good knock, terrific intent and we've seen glimpses of something special 110/517.2 that's the end of that, surely. DK has an absolute mow at this length ball. connected it really well. but he was hitting towards the bigger boundary. And unfortunately also found Ravindra Jadeja at deep midwicket. He was no more than two or three inches from the ropes. He belts out a roar, as does DJ Bravo. What a knock. Under pressure, must say that is a terrific grab from Jadeja. Both feet were off the ground for a split second as the ball lodghed in his fingers. He controlled it superbly. 171/915.2 this time, he picks out long-on. Backed away to swing, but no timing this time. 146/715.4 What a catch! Rayudu, you beauty. One-handed stunner from nowehre. Akash jabs at the ball, gets it high on the bat as it lobs in the air. Rayudu mvoed to his right and threw himself at the ball as it stuck 146/8Extras9 (nb 1, w 8)TOTAL193/9 (20 Overs, RR: 9.65)Fall of wickets: 1-14 (Faf du Plessis, 2.5 ov), 2-20 (Virat Kohli, 4.1 ov), 3-42 (Anuj Rawat, 5.6 ov), 4-50 (Glenn Maxwell, 6.5 ov), 5-110 (Suyash Prabhudessai, 12.2 ov), 6-133 (Shahbaz Ahmed, 14.3 ov), 7-146 (Wanindu Hasaranga, 15.2 ov), 8-146 (Akash Deep, 15.4 ov), 9-171 (Dinesh Karthik, 17.2 ov)
