- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR6.6 and that's the end of Parthiv's little cameo! Slower ball on off, Parthiv pushes at it, there's a bit of extra bounce, takes the splice and balloons straight to point. 49/22.1 inside edge and Kohli goes early! length on middle, jagged back in a little as Kohli went for an expansive drive on the up, extra bounce on offer for the tall Behrendorff, cut Kohli in half, took the inside edge on the way to the keeper 12/119.2 Direct hit from long-on might have AB in trouble And he's out! That's brilliant from Kieron Pollard. AB had whipped this to long-on and wanted a second. He reached the non-striker's end and turned back immediately. Nath was slow to respond so he was trying to regain his crease, but Pollard scored a direct hit from long-on and AB's bat is six inches away from the crease! Unfortunate end to an innings that started slow but had hit AB-mode now 169/517.1 slower ball, taken at deep square leg. Malinga strikes immediately on return and he's got rid of the dangerman. Moeen was looking to whip it with his wrists over the boundary again, but the lack of pace means he ends up mis-timing it, and it lobs up to deep square leg for an easy catch 144/317.5 foxed him totally another slower ball, Stoinis has no clue about it. Malinga rolls his fingers over the ball, gets in on a length in line with the stumps, Stoinis is pushing at it way too early, it takes the leading edge to lob to cover, who takes it with both hands above his head 151/419.3 gives him the charge while giving himself room, but only gets a top edge that flies high over his head. De Kock calls for it, runs till backward square leg and catches it. Nath won't be happy, his tardiness could have cost AB his wicket and he's thrown it away next ball 169/619.5 straight up in the air once again, but it's just an easier catch for de Kock. Same spot, but it's the left-hander so it's backward point. Same shot as Nath too, down the track and trying to go over the top straight, but doesn't pick the slower ball, it flies off the outside edge in the air and into de Kock's gloves 169/7Extras8 (b 2, lb 5, w 1)TOTAL171/7 (20 Overs, RR: 8.55)Fall of wickets: 1-12 (Virat Kohli, 2.1 ov), 2-49 (Parthiv Patel, 6.6 ov), 3-144 (Moeen Ali, 17.1 ov), 4-151 (Marcus Stoinis, 17.5 ov), 5-169 (AB de Villiers, 19.2 ov), 6-169 (Akshdeep Nath, 19.3 ov), 7-169 (Pawan Negi, 19.5 ov)

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR7.4 that's two in the over for Moeen! Length on middle, de Kock plays back when he should have been forward, it skids on rather that turning away and strikes him plumb in front. Moeen Ali has spun RCB back into the contest in four balls 71/27.1 what a ripper and cleans him up! Length outside off and it turned viciously back into Rohit as he went to cut it late, and finally, RCB have a breakthrough 70/115.3 caught at the long-off boundary came down the track to hit over the top, but gets only the toe-end of the bat. The ball travel more high than far and drops into long-off's waiting hands, stretched out over his head and caught cleanly while not over-balancing to go beyond the rope. RCB are not out of it yet, though Mumbai should still be favoured to win from here. He was trying to hit with the turn, but the ball perhaps spun a bit more than he budgeted for 129/410.3 comes down once too often another skip down the track, Chahal saw him coming, pushed it well wide of the off stump and bowled a top spinner, so not only was it out of Kishan's reach, it also hurried through to Parthiv, who was waiting to whip the bails off. Kishan's adventurousness had paid off earlier, but Chahal has the last laugh 104/317.5 good length on the stumps, Krunal moves across and wants to flick it, but his timing's been awry all innings and he only lobs it up in the air. Deep midwicket takes a few steps in and gobbles the ball to end Krunal's laboured stay. 148/5Extras6 (w 6)TOTAL172/5 (19 Overs, RR: 9.05)Fall of wickets: 1-70 (Rohit Sharma, 7.1 ov), 2-71 (Quinton de Kock, 7.4 ov), 3-104 (Ishan Kishan, 10.3 ov), 4-129 (Suryakumar Yadav, 15.3 ov), 5-148 (Krunal Pandya, 17.5 ov)
