Bhuvneshwar to Nitish Rana, FOUR, Nitish Rana has come out so late in this innings but he finishes well. It's full and wide outside off, he gets under this and lofts wide of Salt at sweeper cover, good hit to end the innings
19.5
W
Bhuvneshwar to Hetmyer, out Caught by Padikkal!! Straight to deep mid-wicket. Full outside the leg-stump, Hetmyer flicks and it's a good shot too but Padikkal judges it well, the sun was in his eyes and for a moment it looked like he misjudged it, but takes it with the shades on. Gestures that he almost lost it in the sun. Hetmyer c Padikkal b Bhuvneshwar 9(8) [4s-1]
19.3
4
Bhuvneshwar to Dhruv Jurel, FOUR, goes for the short delivery and Dhruv Jurel has nailed this, pulls it to the deep backward square-leg fence and gives Salt no chance, one bounce over the ropes, was slower and did not have pace on it, Jurel also moved across his off-stump
18.2
4
Yash Dayal to Dhruv Jurel, FOUR, now a four. It's another back of the hand slower-ball and on a length outside off, Dhruv Jurel gets outside off and pulls wide of deep square-leg, did not hit it off the midle of the bat, but found the gap
18.1
6
Yash Dayal to Dhruv Jurel, SIX, too full this slower-ball from round the wicket, it's the back of the hand slower-ball and Dhruv Jurel has smashed it straight down the ground for a big six
17.4
4
Bhuvneshwar to Hetmyer, FOUR, low full-toss around off, Bhuvneshwar misses the yorker, Hetmyer heaves powerfully and beats deep mid-wicket to his right
17
Suyash Sharma to Dhruv Jurel, 1 run, simple catch and Kohli has put it down at long-off. It's full on middle, Dhruv Jurel gets forward to loft, slices it and Kohli did not have to move much either, but he shells it, is not happy as he flings the ball back
16.5
6
Suyash Sharma to Dhruv Jurel, SIX, he tried that shot in the last over, got a top-edge on to helmet, length and flat on middle, Dhruv Jurel with a big slogsweep and it's six to the shorter side at deep mid-wicket
16
W
Hazlewood to Jaiswal, out Lbw!! Looked plumb and it is. Jaiswal wastes a review. Shuffled across outside off and tried to sweep a full delivery on off and middle, misses and that's dead. The ump had the finger up in a flash. Not angling down and Hazlewood has got the set batter. Jaiswal lbw b Hazlewood 75(47) [4s-10 6s-2]
15.2
4
Hazlewood to Jaiswal, FOUR, Hazlewood is not happy with Suyash. It's a length delivery on middle, Jaiswal makes room and slashes, thick outside-edge and Suyash is fine at third man, should have stopped that, he dives to his right and the ball goes under his dive, poor stuff
15.1
6
Hazlewood to Jaiswal, SIX, that's a superb shot. Full and angled across Jaiswal outside off, he gets across and even though he is on the floor, has scooped it all the way over fine-leg. Tremendous the way he got so much elevation despite off-balance, shades of Rishabh Pant there
14.1
4
Suyash Sharma to Jaiswal, FOUR, it's a four to start after the break. Krunal with a valiant chase and he can't stop it from sweeper cover, has a look at his hand, has he done some damage to his left hand? Certainly felt something on the grass. It's tossed up full and wide outside off, Jaiswal slashes and the ball flies over point, always running away from Krunal
13.2
W
Yash Dayal to Riyan Parag, out Caught by Kohli!! The stand is broken by Yash Dayal. From round the wicket and it's a back of the hand slower-ball outside off, short as well, Riyan Parag cuts but can't keepo it down and Kohli at cover takes it near his face and reverse-cup. Parag gestures it was the slower-ball. Riyan Parag c Kohli b Yash Dayal 30(22) [4s-3 6s-1]
13
Krunal Pandya to Jaiswal, 1 run, in the airrrr, Salt does a brilliant job to save the six. This was going over, but Salt, who was right on the edge at deep mid-wicket, jumped high, caught it but couldn't control so pushed it back inside the field of play. Third ump is checking if some part of the body was in contact with the rope and he's happy. It's just a single. Short delivery, Jaiswal mistimes the slog-pull as it rushed on him. Salt timed his jump to perfection to go two-handed. He was losing balance so he couldn't control the catch better. Very tough. Kudos for having the presence of mind to quickly release the ball to save five runs
12.5
4
Krunal Pandya to Jaiswal, FOUR, smart! Went down on one knee to paddle, Krunal Pandya offered a low full toss and made it easy for him to just put bat on ball. Tried the yorker there and missed his mark
12.4
Krunal Pandya to Riyan Parag, 1 run, driven down the ground for a single
12.1
F
Krunal Pandya to Jaiswal, 1 run, clipped to mid-wicket and this is Jaiswal's 3rd T20 fifty at this venue, his second of the season and the 11th in his IPL career. Good innings this. Kept things going when Sanju wasn't able to score, now has dropped anchor hoping to play deep
11.1
4
Suyash Sharma to Jaiswal, FOUR, they are making a move now. The base is set so they want to play more shots. Lovely reverse sweep and it split backward point and short third man to perfection
10.3
6
Krunal Pandya to Riyan Parag, SIX, and he's muscled that with the wrists. Not an easy shot to play from the crease. Wasn't really forward, just whipped it out of sight with his wrists and cleared the mid-wicket fence quite easily
9.5
4
Suyash Sharma to Riyan Parag, FOUR, oh dropped! Yash Dayal the culprit. Short and wide, Parag cuts in the air, doesn't control. Yash was so late to react and tried to grab overhead, could only fingertip it to the boundary
9.2
4
Suyash Sharma to Riyan Parag, FOUR, just a fraction short and Parag pounced on it with a brilliant back foot drive. Beats the dive at cover and the fielder in the deep had no chance
9
4
Krunal Pandya to Riyan Parag, FOUR, he finds the gap. Flatter delivery just outside off stump, Parag cuts really late and sends it between backward point and short third man
7.4
4
Livingstone to Jaiswal, FOUR, he manages to get that over Livingstone's leap. Shortish delivery, Jaiswal belts the flat-bat loft over the bowler's head and beats both long-off and long-on easily. Smart of Jaiswal to go straight than across the line
7
Krunal Pandya to Riyan Parag, 1 run, flatter delivery, Parag pushes it to long-off
6.5
W
Krunal Pandya to Samson, out Stumped!! The pressure gets to Sanju and he's out to left-arm spin, which can trouble him. This was a smart ball into the wicket on seeing the batter step out. Sanju swung so hard that this ball went under the bat and Jitesh stayed low for an easy stumping. Wasn't able to get going today and he puts his head down and trudges off. Samson st Jitesh Sharma b Krunal Pandya 15(19) [4s-1]
5.5
4
Hazlewood to Samson, FOUR, nah! Not the length to be bowling with two fielders very square on either side of the wicket. Wasn't that short, Sanju backed himself and went for the loft over wide mid-on. Decent enough timing for a boundary
4.3
4
Yash Dayal to Jaiswal, FOUR, now the late dab makes sense because they don't have a third man. Short of a length delivery just outside off stump, Jaiswal uses the pace on the ball and runs it betwen short third man and backward point
4.2
6
Yash Dayal to Jaiswal, SIX, the plan to bowl into the wicket and mostly back of a length was working wonders. Yash Dayal tries to go fancy with a back of the hand slower ball and offers slot. The problem was the bowler didn't hide the slower ball nicely. Jaiswal picked it right out of the hands, waited and belted the loft straight down the ground
3.1
4
Hazlewood to Jaiswal, FOUR, oh sliced past the short third man fielder who is very fine. Could have been stopped. Back of a length delivery angling away, Jaiswal steers it past the fielder for a much needed four
2.3
4
Bhuvneshwar to Jaiswal, FOUR, the overpitched ball again. So good of Jaiswal to capitalize on the one rare opportunity that's being dished out. This is very good batsmanship. Bhuvi for some reason wanted to go full, maybe tried the yorker. Even mid-off is very straight but Jaiswal's straightest of straight drives was good enough to beat the dive
2
4
Yash Dayal to Jaiswal, FOUR, and that's the one lose ball that Yash Dayal and RCB badly didn't want. Was such a great over, still is, but this overpitched ball allowed Jaiswal to get under the ball and thump over mid-wicket
1.4
Yash Dayal to Samson, 1 run, Sanju would have been on the bike had mid-off hit the stumps with the direct hit. Fullish delivery, Sanju drives, sets off blindly in hope, again gets lucky as the fielder misses the marj

Bhuvneshwar to Jaiswal, FOUR, this is a good shot but the bowler should still be proud. He forced Jaiswal to take a risk. Jaiswal advanced, but Bhuvi was unfazed. Banged the hard length again, Jaiswal mishit that flat-bat slap, luckily he got it very straight to give RR the first boundary. Such a good contest between Bhuvi and Jaiswal in that over
