- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR2.2 Siraj strikes in the powerplay once again and roars. Parnell plays a part in the dismissal, completing a sliding catch to his left at long leg. Fullish and veering into the pads, Gaikwad picks it up but can't clear Parnell in the outfield. Chinnaswamy roars with Siraj and Parnell 16/115.4 dipping yorker. Harshal has been trying for this all night. And he's been getting closer and closer. Now he nails it. The ball starts out almost lobbing above the batter's eyeline, making him wind up for the big shot. But then 3/4th of the way down the pitch, it dips sharply. Conway isn't ready for it. He loses his shape. He's crouching, now trying just to get bat on it, instead of the six he was looking for. No dice. Beautiful stuff from Harshal. Bravo used to get this dip. This dip is the reason he was so hard to it and its the reason why Harshal is soo good at the death 170/39.3 Hasaranga gives RCB the breakthrough. Hasaranga lobs up a wrong'un and gets it to break in towards off stump. Rahane swings for the hills but loses his shape this time and does not connect with the ball. Hasaranga hits off stump 90/216.3 taken deep deep midwicket, inches from the rope. The on-pace ball really travels here in the Chinnaswamy. Even though it comes off close to the bottom of the bat, because Parnell bowled full and at the pads, Dube gets the ball to travel long. Siraj is on the boundary. He's so cool too. He knows he's in the game. He knows if he stays calm he has a superb catch. And that's what happens. 178/417.4 DK calls for it and settles underneath this skier. Top-edged behind to the keeper. Another slower ball into the pitch. Possibly another legcutter. Rayudu, having jumped across off, slogs to the leg side and ends up flapping it behind to the keeper 198/519.4 Jadeja steps out to Maxwell once again, this time he holes out to long-on. Jadeja doesn't get close enough to the pitch, and finds Prabhudessai, who is subbing for Faf 224/6Extras7 (lb 1, nb 2, w 4)TOTAL226/6 (20 Overs, RR: 11.3)Fall of wickets: 1-16 (Ruturaj Gaikwad, 2.2 ov), 2-90 (Ajinkya Rahane, 9.3 ov), 3-170 (Devon Conway, 15.4 ov), 4-178 (Shivam Dube, 16.3 ov), 5-198 (Ambati Rayudu, 17.4 ov), 6-224 (Ravindra Jadeja, 19.4 ov)

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR0.4 That's a novelty drag on! Akash is jumping in celebration. Kohli had made ample room and tried to whip the length ball on leg through midwicket. Got an underedge onto the boot. It deflected onto the front leg and then slid off the back boot, and gently rolled onto the stump. What an unusual way to get out on a belter! 6/113.6 Top edge, another skier and another catch for Dhoni! Both set batters out, CSK back in the game. Was a length ball at the stumps, Du Plessis went for the slog sweep. Got an edge, went high, just to the left of the leg side of the cut strip. Dhoni came in, waited, reached out a bit and took it 159/41.6 Dolly for Gaikwad at cover point, Deshpande joins among the wickets. Lomror goes. It was a shortish ball outside off. Lomrom made room and charged, tried to crash it over point but got a top edge off the cut. 15/212.1 Skier into the stratosphere, Dhoni gets under it and takes it Was a length ball around sixth, went up. Came down in the vacant forward-short-leg area. Dhoni was searching for it as it came down, did well to keep composure and the ball sunk in the gloves. Dhoni has a word with the ump, maybe about the spidercam. Maxwell's brilliant 76 ends, he gives Shahbaz some tips while leaving 141/317.1 Shahbaz slashes, it's in the air and Gaikwad takes it this time at long-off. Was a full ball outside off. Shahbaz went across and tried to smash it but the bat turned in the hand. Ruturaj took it low, threw the ball in the air. Dhoni has a word with his bowler 192/616.5 Slog sweep is in the air, Theekshana's there at deep midwicket and takes it! Was a low full toss, DK went across and tried to launch it again but it went straight to the fielder. Taken around chest-height. Theekshana celebrates. 191/519.6 Jadeja takes it at deep midwicket, cheers go up in the Chinnaswamy and CSK win by eight runs! Was short and wide, Prabhudessai went across and top edged a pull. Ballooned high and Jadeja took an easy catch 218/818.1 Slogged in the air, finds long-on! Was a full ball on leg, Parnell tried whipping it across but couldn't clear Dube. 197/7Extras11 (lb 5, w 6)TOTAL218/8 (20 Overs, RR: 10.9)Fall of wickets: 1-6 (Virat Kohli, 0.4 ov), 2-15 (Mahipal Lomror, 1.6 ov), 3-141 (Glenn Maxwell, 12.1 ov), 4-159 (Faf du Plessis, 13.6 ov), 5-191 (Dinesh Karthik, 16.5 ov), 6-192 (Shahbaz Ahmed, 17.1 ov), 7-197 (Wayne Parnell, 18.1 ov), 8-218 (Suyash Prabhudessai, 19.6 ov)
