- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR0.6 This time it is straight to Patidar. What a start for RCB! Good length ball on off stump, Rickelton wants to loft this over mid-off, but doesn't get it anywhere near the middle. The ball floats to Patidar, who takes the simplest of catches at mid-off 4/12.5 Bhuvi has another. The swing merchant has been taking us on a nostalgia trip all season and here he is at it again. Gets rid of Rohit. A knuckle ball from Bhuvi, as he dangles it on a length well outside off. Rohit stretches forward, pushes at it but can only get a thick outside edge. Jitesh dives to his right and takes a lovely catch. Kohli is pumping his fists. RCB are on top 28/212.3 Knocks him over! Two boundaries and a wicket. Cross-seam length ball outside off stays low and skids through as Dhir swipes across the line and knocks off the leg stump. That's a big breakthrough just as MI got a partnership going 110/42.6 But he won't be getting any this game. My word! SKY has fallen for a first-ball duck. A typical Bhuvi dismissal this. Lands the ball on a length just outside off, shaping the ball away from SKY late. He pushes at it, gets a thick outside edge, with the ball travelling to Kohli's right at slip. He takes a good catch and RCB are buzzing. Bhuvi is on fire; MI are in disarray. 28/317.6 Oh, he's played that onto his stumps! Bhuvi has a fourth! Bhuvneshwar was looking for a seam-up yorker, and Tilak went across to scoop. But he doesn't get under the ball and gets an inside edge that deflects the ball onto the stumps. Bhuvneshwar ends his spell with a well deserved four-for 155/615.2 Easy pickings for Bethell and Jacks is walking back to the dugout. On a length outside off and Jacks looks to whip it away. Doesn't come off the middle at all and the ball goes high towards deep midwicket. Bethell runs in, settles under it, and takes an easy catch. Mumbai Indians lose a fifth 132/518.6 Chipped to mid-off! This is an attempted yorker outside off but it turns into a full toss. Bawa looks to hit it down the ground but his bat turns in his hands as he makes contact. Easy catch for the RCB skipper and Hazlewood has a wicket to his name 161/7Extras6 (lb 3, w 3)TOTAL166/7 (20 Overs, RR: 8.3)Fall of wickets: 1-4 (Ryan Rickelton, 0.6 ov), 2-28 (Rohit Sharma, 2.5 ov), 3-28 (Suryakumar Yadav, 2.6 ov), 4-110 (Naman Dhir, 12.3 ov), 5-132 (Will Jacks, 15.2 ov), 6-155 (Tilak Varma, 17.6 ov), 7-161 (Raj Bawa, 18.6 ov)

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR12.1 Oh, straight to the fielder! This is a hit-me ball, overpitched around middle and leg. Bethell looks to flick it away but can't get the requisite power behind the shot. Straight to Tilak Varma, who holds on 94/40.4 A golden duck for Virat Kohli. Just what MI would have hoped for and Raipur has been silenced. Fullish in length shaping away from Kohli outside off, he shimmies down the track looking to clear mid-off. He doesn't time that at all and Bawa runs to his right at mid-off and takes a good diving catch. Back to back ducks for Kohli. 10/12.6 The swing of Chahar gets MI another wicket and Padikkal is now walking back. Length ball at 132kph that lands just around off stump and shapes away late. DDP is caught in the crease pushing at it with an angled bat. He gets a thick outside edge and Rickelton does the rest. MI are making an early dent and RCB are suddenly nervous. 24/25.1 Straight up, straight up and Bosch's hard length has paid dividend right away. Cross-seam delivery on off stump, Patidar wanted to pull that away but only manages a big top-edge that balloons straight up with Rickelton doing the rest 39/317.6 Tilak now does the relay catch all by himself! Full outside off and Krunal hits it flat to long-on's left. Tilak runs across, takes the catch, throws the ball up before crossing the rope and then hops back over to complete the catch. He grabbed it at first go a fair bit away from his body, and that's pretty great fielding. He makes up for his little gaffe from earlier in the over. Although, the 12 runs scored in between could still prove crucial. RCB, however, have lost their set batter. Krunal walks off after a spirited 73, fighting not just the opposition but also cramps 149/715.5 Skied to deep point! Tries to cut away a short ball outside off and ends up slicing it. Easy catch and RCB lose another wicket. Bosch has a third! 131/515.6 Oh, Bosch has two in two! David's gone first ball! Cross-seam delivery jags in from outside off and David is early into the pull. The ball deflects off the toe end of the bat and Rickelton catches it to his right 131/619.3 Sliced to backward point, and surely that's over for RCB! Bawa goes full around off and Shepherd almost swings himself off his feet as he looks to go over the leg side. But all he manages is an outside edge and it's a simple catch for Tilak. Bawa is a relieved figure, Shepherd is mad 157/8Extras15 (lb 3, nb 1, w 11)TOTAL167/8 (20 Overs, RR: 8.35)Fall of wickets: 1-10 (Virat Kohli, 0.4 ov), 2-24 (Devdutt Padikkal, 2.6 ov), 3-39 (Rajat Patidar, 5.1 ov), 4-94 (Jacob Bethell, 12.1 ov), 5-131 (Jitesh Sharma, 15.5 ov), 6-131 (Tim David, 15.6 ov), 7-149 (Krunal Pandya, 17.6 ov), 8-157 (Romario Shepherd, 19.3 ov)
