    6.4 Mandhana bites the dust, oh my! Back of a length delivery just outside off stump that sticks in the surface. Mandhana decides very early that she wants to play the pull but because the ball has gripped, and bounced a tad extra, she can only get a top edge that lobs up into the air. Yastika does the rest, and sends Mandhana back on her way! 33/2
    0.3 oh dear! Length delivery just outside off stump. Devine dabs it towards backward point and then sets off for the single. She then hesitates and at one stage, both batters are running to the batter's end. The throw seems to have gone to the wrong end (the batter's end) but the running between the wickets was so tentative that MI, despite that throw, have caught Devine short of her ground! What a way to throw away your wicket, right at the start! 1/1
    16.1 huge appeal, and that looks very plumb! Yorker slanted into middle and off stump. Perry shuffles across her stumps and tries to lap it away. She cuts herself off completely, though, and can't access the ball altogether. It thuds into the pads and it is curtains for Perry. Does not even bother with the review, and rightly so! 91/5
    10.6 holes out to long on! Kerr has two! Flighted up beautifully on a full length outside off stump. Knight's eyes light up and she looks to go downtown. However, she is deceived in the flight and has to reach out, eventually chipping it straight down long on's throat! RCB continue to slide! 59/3
    14.4 stumped by a mile! Kerr is a special, special bowler! Googly that is tossed up on a length outside off stump. It was almost as if she knew that Kanika, after what happened last ball, would advance. The ball is just out of her hitting arc and she does not pick the googly either. Only swishes at thin air and Yastika does the rest behind the stumps! 78/4
    19.1 holes out to long on! Kerr makes no mistake! Length delivery on middle and leg stump. This one seems to come onto Richa a little quicker than she expects. She is rushed into her attempted lofted stroke and can only splice it straight to long on! 119/8
    16.4 cleaned up by an absolute peach! Yorker that hones in on off stump and dips very devilishly at the end. Shreyanka does not quite pick it and can't get her bat down in time as the ball crashes into the base of off stump! Sciver-Brunt has two, and RCB are now six down! 95/6
    17.5 huge appeal, not given this time! And reviewed by MI! Full and angled into off stump. Schutt shuffles across and seems to miss her sweep stroke. Ishaque is convinced she has gotten the better of Schutt but the umpire says no. Was the impact outside off? Well, we are about to find out! Nothing on Ultra Edge, and the impact is in line too. The ball then cannons into the stumps, and Ishaque has her first wicket of the day! 108/7

    19.6 no, they can't! But MI can! Full, straight, you-miss-I-hit stuff from Wong! Darted into middle stump and Disha's flailing bat is not even in the same postcode as the ball thunders into the stumps! 125/9

    7.1 chipped straight to extra cover! Back of a length delivery on off stump that holds in the surface a tad. Matthews gives herself room and tries to punch it past extra cover but only ends up offering some catching practice to Mandhana! 62/2
    5.6 eventually taken at mid on! Full and darted into the stumps. Yastika advances and drills it straight to mid on, where Mandhana, after indulging in her sweet, little juggling act, holds on and gives RCB the breakthrough they wanted! Is it already too late, though? 53/1
    8.4 Asha gets Sciver-Brunt, oh my! Short, wide and Sciver-Brunt could have hit that literally anywhere. On this occasion, though, she tries to hit it too hard and ends up feathering it through to Richa, who snaffles up the chance! MI keep losing wickets! 72/3
    9.1 chops it on! More drama at the DY Patil Stadium! Slower delivery on a full length outside off stump. Harmanpreet has a very loose waft at it without any conviction. All she does is drag it back onto her stumps via a slight deflection off the pads! 73/4

    15.5 Vastrakar departs! Slowed up on a length on off stump. Vastrakar, trying to finish it with one blow, hares down the track and slogs at it. She is nowhere close to the pitch of the ball, though, and skies it. Mandhana settles herself at extra cover and does the rest! 120/5
    15.6 Wong bites the dust too! Oh dear! Length delivery outside off stump. Wong advances and looks to tonk that into next week. She is rushed into her stroke, though, and ends up slicing it straight down Mandhana's throat at extra cover! 120/6
