    11.1 Quick fizzer from Sundar, bounces, and Sundar has Rahul top-edging a catch to short third man. Speared at 103.6ks outside off, rushes the batsman into a slog-sweep. Rahul skews it to Sarfraz Khan 94/4
    3.1 edged and de Kock throws himself to his right to snag the catch. Pitched up and outside off, Agarwal throws his hands at a drive and nicks it behind. De Kock completes an outstanding catch 32/1
    3.2 big appeal for lbw, and the finger goes up. Finch challenges the on-field out decision. Full nip-backer, Finch is caught on the crease, playing around his front pad and missing. Impact in line and the tracker returns umpire's call on leg stump. Finch bags a duck on return 32/2
    3.6 Umesh is just too quick for Yuvraj Singh. Pretty full and speared in from around the wicket, rushes Yuvraj for pace. He storms through the gate and knocks out the middle stump. Umesh celebrates the wicket with an animated fist pump 36/3
    12.6 Kulwant returns and provides RCB with the breakthrough. Back of a length on middle stump, Nair swings so hard to the leg side that he loses his shape. He collects fresh air. Kulwant hits the top of middle 102/5
    13.4 Stoinis dares to step down the track, Sundar drags his length back and hurls it at 103.4ks, Stoinis swings and misses. De Kock gathers the ball and takes the bails off 110/6
    14.6 Axar has been pinned in front. Umpire Ravi raises his finger almost immediately. Full and angled in from over the wicket, Axar is caught on the crease. He plays around his front pad and is struck on it below the knee-roll. It would crash into leg stump. Axar walks off 122/7
    18.5 Chahal dangles another wide legbreak. Ashwin runs down the track, but the ball dips, and breaks away sharply. Ashwin swings and misses. De Kock swipes the bails off in a flash 153/9
    17.5 full on off, right in the swinging arc, but Tye does not get all of it. He miscues a loft to Kohli at the long-off region. The RCB captain moved to his left from long-on and pouched it in front of AB at long-off. Tye got it off the toe end, giving Kohli catching practice 142/8

    19.2 Woakes bounces out Mujeeb and wraps up Kings XI for 155. Short ball, homing in at the ribs, Mujeeb is too late onto the hook. He splices it to backward point 155/10

    11.2 De Kock runs past a slider and Ashwin hits the top of middle. Slides on with the arm from around the wicket, de Kock steps out, swishes and does not make contact. 87/3
    0.2 Baz bags a first-ball duck. Axar darts it short and outside off, Baz makes additional room and looks to slash it away. He picks out Mujeeb at backward point 1/1
    4.5 Seventeen-year-old Mujeeb bursts through the gate of Kohli. He unfurls a googly from the back of the hand. It pitches outside off and zips back in sharply, Kohli has no clue about this variation. He drives and has his stumps rattled. Mujeeb hits the top of middle. What a ripper from Mujeeb. This game is on 33/2
    18.1 Tye hushes the Chinnaswamy into silence. He goes short and outside off, AB upper cuts it in the air and holes out to Karun Nair at deep point. Tye gives Kings XI hope. RCB need 10 off 11 balls 146/5
    11.3 Ashwin has two in two. This is the legbreak and Ashwin has posted a slip to catch it. Wide of the crease, angling in, and breaking away outside off, Sarfraz simply runs the ball to slip, where Nair takes a sharp catch 87/4
    18.4 shortish and outside off, Mandeep swats it across the line to deep midwicket. Mandeep chances a second. It just wasn't there. Dagar, the sub fielder, throws it flat and hard to the keeper, who takes the bails off to catch Mandeep well short of the crease 150/6
