Bhuvneshwar Kumar to Tilak Varma, out Bowled!! Big wicket at this crucial juncture. Tilak Varma tries to be cheeky and plays it on. Walks across and tries to scoop it fine. The ball takes the under edge and shatters into leg-stump. End of a very good knock from Tilak Varma. The crowd applauds the effort as he walks back to the pavillion.

Rasikh Salam Dar to Tilak Varma, FOUR, second fifty plus score for Tilak Varma this season. Short and wide outside off, Tilak Varma waits for the ball and cuts it late to the pick the gap on the off-side. Splits the gap in the deep and collects four to bring up a well deserved fifty on a not so easy pitch

Romario Shepherd to Will Jacks, out Caught by Jacob Bethell!! Will Jacks departs. That was in the slot, but not the wicket to hit through the line. Was on a good length on middle and leg, Jacks is early on the heave, gets it off the toe end and the ball skies to deep mid-wicket.

Rasikh Salam Dar to Will Jacks, FOUR, edgeddd and wide of the keeper. This over reads 12 runs but you can't really fault the bowler for 8 of those runs. Short of a length delivery just outside off stump, Jacks tries to steer it fine, gets a thick edge that escapes fine

Rasikh Salam Dar to Naman Dhir, out Bowled!! The revenge from the bowler. Back of a length into the wicket. Ball skidded onto the batter after pitch. Probably landed on the leather part of the ball so it didn't bounce as much as Naman Dhir expected and the leg stump is knocked out. End of a great innings, got his side out a hole. Naman Dhir b Rasikh Salam Dar 47(32) [4s-5 6s-2]

Rasikh Salam Dar to Naman Dhir, FOUR, this is smart batting! Naman Dhir moved leg-side as he spotted third man and backward point up in the ring. Used the pace on this short of length delivery and dabs it fine to split both fielders to perfection. Bethell gave chase at good speed and couldn't stop himself so he jumped over the ad boards before coming to a halt
12.1

Rasikh Salam Dar to Naman Dhir, FOUR, Rasikh Salam Dar has a good slower ball but Naman Dhir picked it from the hands and delayed the back foot drive through cover. Hit it wide of the man in the ring and in the deep as well
11.4
Krunal Pandya to Naman Dhir, 1 run, flatter delivery, wristed to backward square leg
11.2
6
Krunal Pandya to Tilak Varma, SIX, he's launched that high and handsome over mid-wicket. Tilak is a class player. Krunal Pandya tried to outsmart him with a 81kph loopy ball. Full marks for variation of speed but he offered slot the moment Tilak could get under it, the ball disappeared into the night sky
10.1
6
Romario Shepherd to Naman Dhir, SIX, belted out of sight over square leg. They surely have to take on Romario, who is the weaklink. Short of a length delivery on the leg stump that sat up to be hit. Naman Dhir went back and pulled it over the ropes. Glove love between the batters
9.2
Krunal Pandya to Tilak Varma, 2 runs, the partnership between Tilak Varma and Naman Dhir is now, lets this flatter delivery come and guides late off the back foot, beats backward point and gets two before the sweeper cuts it off
8.4
6
Suyash Sharma to Naman Dhir, SIX, this time he gets the chance to tee off and connects nicely! Full and in the slot, Naman gets under it and hits it towards the sightscreen
5.5
Rasikh Salam Dar to Tilak Varma, 2 runs, now Suyash Sharma drops a sitter. Yikes, he didn't even get a hand on it and the ball went right through his hands and under the legs. Tilak Varma ran down the pitch, Rasikh Salam Dar bowled a brilliant slower ball into the wicket. Tilak finished the pull-guide before the ball arrived and waited not knowing where to hide the bat. It took the top edge and lobbed to the left of mid-wicket. Shocker of a drop. First the misfield by Romario in the over and this drop. RCB cannot afford to let MI off the hook and be sloppy
5.3
4
Rasikh Salam Dar to Naman Dhir, FOUR, tickled fine. No fine leg so Jitesh tries to hunt it down himself! The cross-seam short of length delivery that jumped and hit Naman Dhir almost on the handle. Luckily for him there was no one to cut it off
5.1
4
Rasikh Salam Dar to Tilak Varma, FOUR, nooo Romario! That won't make the captain happy. A needless fumble and what should have been a dot is four runs. He moved to the right at cover to stop this ball but overran. Short of a length delivery just outside off stump, Tilak punched it off back foot to cover and got lucky
4.5
4
Bhuvneshwar Kumar to Naman Dhir, FOUR, shot! Sweetly timed from Naman Dhir! Let this length delivery come and gave the full face of the bat to it and placed the ball wide of cover-point. That will give him confidence

Josh Hazlewood to Naman Dhir, FOUR, good length delivery around middle and leg, flicked over square leg for a boundary. Much needed for MI

Bhuvneshwar Kumar to Suryakumar Yadav, out Caught by Virat Kohli!! Now Virat dives low to the right at first slip to make it three in two overs for Bhuvi. He runs off after taking that catch. This was around 138kph at a fullish length and just outside off stump. Enough seam movement around to keep the batters in check. Bhuvi asked the question to the batter to hit it from that spot if he can. SKY moved across and then flashed hard at a drive, thick edge and gone. MI in trouble. Suryakumar Yadav c Virat Kohli b Bhuvneshwar Kumar 0(1)

Bhuvneshwar Kumar to Rohit Sharma, out Caught by Jitesh Sharma!! Edged and gone. He's outsmarted Ro with a 116.6kph knuckle ball. What an absolute joy of three overs it has been so far. Bhuvi bossing the first over. Ro taking on Hazlewood in the next over. Bhuvi again keeping it tight, Ro getting a smart boundary but Bhuvi eventually outdoes Ro with a stunner of a knuckle ball that sucked Ro early into the shot. He played away from the body to this length ball, thick edge and the keeper dived low to the right to collect a fine catch. Rohit Sharma c Jitesh Sharma b Bhuvneshwar Kumar 22(10) [4s-2 6s-2]

Bhuvneshwar Kumar to Rohit Sharma, FOUR, class, pure class from Ro! Bowler did nothing wrong but bowl to the field. Slip in place and a fine short third in place to cut the angle. There was hardly any width on this short of length delivery but Ro played so close to the body to guide it past backward point and deep point is too square

6
Josh Hazlewood to Rohit Sharma, SIX, now he dances down the track again to unsettle Josh Hazlewood, who digs it into the pitch. Plays a wild swing for a big hit and the top edge flies over the keeper to negate all the good work done by Bhuvi
1.5
6
Josh Hazlewood to Rohit Sharma, SIX, uppish and just over Bethell. This is classical counterattack from Ro. He's taking on Josh Hazlewood to make a statement. The bumper and directed pretty well because they had a man perfectly placed at deep backward square leg. Ro is known for his lovely pulls shots, send out one and teases Bethell on the fence. Even a good jump wasn't good enough
1.2
4
Josh Hazlewood to Rohit Sharma, FOUR, in the airrrr and just over mid-off! Are we going to see Rohit taken Hazlewood like he did in Ahmedabad in the World Cup final? There is no way they can let both the bowlers happily dig away at the short of length zone. So Rohit backed away to unsettle the line, Josh Hazlewood didn't change his radar much but Rohit backed himself for a slap and managed to clear the infield

Bhuvneshwar Kumar to Ryan Rickelton, out Caught by Rajat Patidar!! Bhuvi you absolute gold! Kept it very, very simple. Enough cracks on the pitch to put doubts on the batter's mind so he did nothing but bowl into the wicket and use the pitch. That's experience for you! This isn't a pitch to hit through the line. Definitely not if it's not overpitched and Bhuvi offered nothing in the slot. This mean Rickelton had to manufacture something and he tried to loft the drive. Ball jumped extra to hit him higher than intended and this time lobs straight to mid-off for an easy catch. Ryan Rickelton c Rajat Patidar b Bhuvneshwar Kumar 2(4)
