    2.4 chipped straight to mid wicket, and Siraj breaks through! Fullish on the pads and this is there to be hit. Bethell looks to clip it away but cannot keep it down. Does not get under it either and he could not have picked out Rashid better. Some respite for GT, even if it is not of the man who has caused havoc so far, but they will take it nonetheless! 34/1
    3.2 clothed up, and Rabada has his revenge! Kudos to the bowler for coming back strong, but also to the captain for persisting with him. This is banged in short, following the batter outside leg. Kohli, stepping out to swipe at it, gets cramped for room. The ball spews up off the splice and Rashid, moving to his right from mid wicket, slides and completes the catch. GT go back-to-back! 35/2
    13.6 chopped on, and Rashid strikes again! Slipped through on a back of a length on middle and leg. Seems like the slider and it skids through. Padikkal wants to cut it off his stumps but the lack of room means he chops it onto his pad, before the ball bobbles onto the stumps. RCB seven down, and in a heap of trouble now! 126/7
    7.4 goes straight up, and Holder has somehow managed to hold on! Banged into the track on middle and leg, and this seems to stick in the surface. Patidar looks for the pick-up pull but top-edges it. Holder runs around to his right from deep square and despite the presence of Rabada, who was running back from short fine, Holder lunges to his right and makes it stick in his mitts. Arshad has a wicket, and Patidar has to go. But hang on. The replays have come up on the screen, and Kohli is very animated with the fourth umpire beyond the ropes. And Kohli continues to moan. Looks like Patidar's dismissal has been confirmed, and RCB are not at all happy! 79/3
    8.1 Buttler flies to his right, and Jitesh's woes continue! Hung up on a length wide outside off. Jitesh goes for the booming cover drive but does not move his feet a great deal. Musters a healthy edge and Buttler snaps down low to his right to hand GT their fourth wicket! 80/4
    9.4 sharp grab by Holder, and Rashid is into the act again! Googly fizzed in full on off. David gets down on one knee and looks to mow it over cow corner. Shanks it off the inside half of the bat and the ball flies towards Holder at short mid wicket, who leaps into the air and clasps his palms around it. No problem with this catch, and RCB are now five down! 91/5
    10.3 another tame chip to mid wicket, and Holder is like a catching magnet tonight! He would catch a cold in the desert! Back of a length on middle and leg. A bit of hold in the surface and Krunal, like many before him, cannot keep his flick down. Pops it straight to Holder, and Arshad is over the moon. RCB six down, and under the pump! 96/6
    14.1 oh dear - what have you done, Romario Shepherd?! Hard length outside off and under ordinary circumstances, this was there to be hit. But perhaps not at 126-7. Shepherd, though, gives in to the temptation and shanks it terribly. Straight to Sudharsan, and GT continue to pile misery on RCB! 126/8
    19.1 heaved to deep mid wicket, and Sudharsan lunges forward to take it! Slot ball outside off and Iyer gives it all he has. The ball pings off the inner half of the bat, though, and arrows towards Sudharsan. He dives forward and then rolls to retain control of the ball. The third umpire does check if the catch is clean and he says it is. Iyer has to depart! 155/9

    19.2 has Hazlewood been run out at the batter's end?! Well, that might be immaterial because he has been run out at the other end! Back of a length on leg. Hazlewood stays leg side of the ball and pokes at it. Gets beaten on the outside. Hazlewood wanders out of his ground and then has to try and stretch back, with Buttler hitting the stumps. Once that happens, Bhuvneshwar decides to pinch a run and Hazlewood has to then hurtle to the other end. The ball, having hit the stumps, rolls around on the pitch and Gill is first to react. He picks it up and throws down the stumps at the bowler's end, with Hazlewood just about in the frame. RCB bowled out for 155! 155/10

    2.6 nicked and taken! Bhuvneshwar strikes, and a huge roar follows! Not sure at this exact point whose home ground this is, judging by the reaction. Fullish in the channel and this seams away. Sudharsan pokes at it with hard hands and the ball floats through to the keeper, who dives to his left and snares the chance superbly. RCB on the board after taking a bit of tap! 42/1
    4.6 smashed straight to Kohli at extra cover, and Kohli throws the ball into the turf after taking it! Back of a length on middle and leg. Gill steps down and absolutely laces it. Hits it straight to Kohli, though, and his frustration is evident as he hurls the ball into the ground. Gill departs after an 18-ball 43, and RCB getting their teeth stuck into this contest now! 57/2
    7.3 bowled'im round his legs, and Bhuvneshwar is off on his celebratory run! Zipped in full on middle and leg. Buttler pre-meditates the shuffle across and goes too far across this time. Cannot catch up to this full ball and Buttler seems his leg stump flat on the ground. RCB with a big, big wicket, but has the damage already been done? 92/3
    10.3 RCB plead and plead and plead, but the umpire says no! RCB review! Back of a length on middle and off, and this skids through. Sundar is late on the stroke and gets pinged on the back leg. Might be a little high, but Sundar could still be in trouble if he has not hit it. No bat involved. Ball Tracking comes up and...it shows the ball to be crashing into off stump. Shepherd turning it around, and GT are crumbling! 111/5
    10.1 goes a mile up, and taken! Shepherd tests out the middle of the track outside off. Shahrukh has a wild swipe at it and the ball skews off the top edge. Swirls in the air for an eternity and when the ball does come down, Hazlewood is ready at fine leg to clasp his hands around it. GT not out of the woods yet! 109/4

    13.5 dragged to deep mid wicket, and is there life in this game still?! Suyash dangles the carrot on a full length on middle. Holder picks the googly and slogs at it. Reaches out a little too much in front, though, and drags it straight down Padikkal's throat. GT six down now! 141/6
