9.4 Kohli's party is over and Mitchell takes it at long-on after having briefly lost balance because he was mindful of the ropes. Kohli went against the turn and ended up hitting it wider than he would've liked. Excellent innings. 78/1

12.6 ohh, half an appeal for run-out at the non-striker's end! Santner bowled fullish and straight, as Patidar drove back. Santner stretched his right hand out and got a finger tip, but du Plessis, at the other end, put his bat inside the crease in time even as he seemed to backing out. However, in a late twist, his bat is deemed to be in the air when the bails came off. The third umpire, though, takes a look several times over before coming to a conclusion. But a superb over for CSK nevertheless 113/2

17.4 more boundary heroics from Mitchell! He is placed at a straightish long-on, to the left of where he would ideally have been. He takes it reverse cupped, and realising that he was on the edge of the rope, threw the ball back in the air on the field of play while taking a step behind. He comes back, though, and completes the catch. It was another low full toss from Thakur outside off, and Patidar went slapping down the ground, but barely missed out 184/3

18.5 this is edged behind, though! Hardly any reaction from Dhoni this time. Deshpande went fullish, and pretty wide of off. Karthik looked to loft, but got an outside edge, which settled into Dhoni's gloves 201/4

19.5 Dhoni takes it halfway towards where a square leg would have been! A cutter from Thakur, although on a length just outside off. Maxwell had a massive swipe, but sent the ball up into the (rainy) clouds. Dhoni kept his eyes on it while moving to his left 218/5

0.1 he has picked out short fine! Absolute half-tracker from Maxwell, but there's a hint of grip on the deck, extra bounce as well but Gaikwad thinks there's a scoring opportunity, ends up hitting it straight to Yash Dayal. 0/1

12.6 ahh, complete mix-up, and Ravindra is run-out! CSK could lose all the momentum with this wicket, not least because Dube is struggling. Ravindra called for two initially, and Dube responded. But just after turning back to attempted the second, Ravindra said no. By then, though, Dube was almost through at the non-striker's end. So Ravindra was out of his crease. This is what happened before: he got a length ball angling into his pads, which he whipped to deep square 115/4

2.2 no timing whatsoever as Mitchell looks to clear his front leg and loft this over mid-off, ends up picking out Kohli who does wonderfully well to run first to his left and then backwards to complete the catch. 19/2

9.1 the slower delivery has done the trick! Lockie bowls a leg-cutter on a length, Rahane sees width and looks to go over cover but ends up slicing it to Faf at the edge of the ring at cover. It was a steepler but he made it look very easy. You'd think Rahane has done his job. Over to Dube & co now. 85/3

13.4 Dube's struggle ends! He falls for 7 off 15 balls, which is so many when you consider what is at stake. Green banged it on a back of a length at a change of pace, and got it to angle across towards middle and off. Dube, despite being as tall as he is, couldn't get the pull away. He found long-on instead, and had to depart 119/5

14.6 wow, superb catch by du Plessis! Santner is left shocked, even as the RCB supporters are jumping with joy. Placed at mid-off, du Plessis flies a few above, and stretches his right hand across. It would make for a fantastic pic if someone might have captured it: the ball in du Plessis' hands, and du Plessis defying physics. Siraj bowled a low full toss on off, and Santner lofted, only for du Plessis to intervene 129/6

19.2 slower ball... and Dhoni falls! Half the Chinnaswamy erupts out of joy; the other half wonders if they have seen Dhoni for the last time ever. Dayan bowls a length ball angling away towards off, but this is from the back of the hand. Dhoni goes hoicking across the line, but can hit it only as far as deep backward square leg. Who knows we may have seen the last of Dhoni on the field 190/7
