Harpreet Brar to Bhuvneshwar, out Caught by Bartlett!! Harpreet Brar brings an end to the partnership. A tossed up delivery outside off and Bhuvneshwar thumps it towards long-off. Bartlett in the deep almost makes a mess as he doesn't judge it initially. Does well to adjust late and complete the catch with a leap eventually. A disappointing performance by the Challengers this has been. Bhuvneshwar c Bartlett b Harpreet Brar 8(13) [4s-1]

Marco Jansen to Bhandage, out Lbw!! Bhandage ahs been given OUT LBW. This did straighten, but is too high? Bhandage opts to review, was looking to tuck it onto the on-side and missed it completely, no bat and UltraEdge confirms the same.His left leg was in the air and he's struck on the flap of the pad. It's umpire's call on hitting and Bhandage will have to go. Seven down and RCB are in dire straits. On a length and angling into the left-hander, straightened enough to beat the inside edge and was then clipping the outside of leg-stump. Bhandage lbw b Marco Jansen 1(4)

Chahal to Rajat Patidar, out Caught by Bartlett!! There goes Rajat Patidar and PBKS ared making a meal of this RCB batting line-up - was a nicely tossed up leg-break and think Patidar did read it, was trying to go inside out over cover, but he hit it a lot more straighter, straight down Bartlett's throat at long-off. RCB have lost six and will they get bowled out inside the 14 overs? Rajat Patidar c Bartlett b Chahal 23(18) [4s-1 6s-1]

Marco Jansen to Tim David, no run, another sharp short ball from Jansen, David thinks about the pull and then yanks head away. It's not given as a wide, so he has a chat with his partner and they've reviewed. It does look like it's sailed over his head, what does the 3rd umpire think? Jansen has already taken his cap from the on-field umpire. Calculations show that it's above the shoulder and below David's head, so stays with the onfield call and RCB lose a review

Marco Jansen to Tim David, FOUR, clubbed, banged in short by Jansen - David swivels across, picks the length early and then thumps the pull in front of square on the on-side, beats the fielder coming across from the deep

Marco Jansen to Krunal Pandya, out Caught&Bowled!! A loud shout for caught and bowled. Jansen reckons it's caught the top-edge before lobbing off the helmet., The umpire shakes his head, Krunal doesn't move an inch and they've reviewed. Was banged in short and the left-hander was caught in an awful tangle as he shaped for the pull, but UltraEdge does detect a small top-edge and RCB have lost their 5th wicket. They're falling apart here, was a snorter from Jansen and Krunal was in a poor position on the shot, the ball climbed nastily, took a bit of a top-edge and then lobbed back to the bowler off the grill. Krunal Pandya c and b Marco Jansen 1(2)

Chahal to Jitesh Sharma, out Caught by Nehal Wadhera!! Rajat Patidar didn't pick the man in the deep, but Jitesh has picked him out with perfection. RCB tumbling away trying to be too super aggressive. Was the attempted wrong 'un and the sweep was on, but Jitesh doesn't bother to find the gap, hit it in the air and in the vicinity of deep backward square leg. Wadhera ran in from the deep, bent forward and completed a fine two-handed catch. Jitesh Sharma c Nehal Wadhera b Chahal 2(7)

Bartlett to Livingstone, out Caught by Priyansh Arya!! A steepler and it's another failure for Livingstone - came charging down the pitch, doesn't get anywhere near the pitch of the ball and then went through with an ill-advised slog, gets a thick top-edge, high and over cover, Priyansh ran back, kept his eyes on the ball and then completes a safe reverse cupped chance. Livingstone c Priyansh Arya b Bartlett 4(6) [4s-1]

Arshdeep Singh to Kohli, out Caught by Marco Jansen!! A top-edge and RCB have lost both their openers. Was banged in short, looked like a cross-seam delivery and that was pushed across the right-hander, Kohli stayed on the front-foot and then went for an extravagant pull, didn't get it off the middle of the bat ,but did seem to be clearing mid-on. But Jansen ran back, kept his eyes on the ball, took the catch and then fell onto the ground, but ensuring that he didn't let the ball pop out. Kohli c Marco Jansen b Arshdeep Singh 1(3)

Arshdeep Singh to Phil Salt, out Caught by Josh Inglis!! A top-edge, Josh Inglis calls for the catch, runs towards short square leg and takes it with both gloves, that's a big blow for the home team and it's the dangerous Salt who has to go back. Wasn't short enough and he was looking to pull it against the angle, catches a massive top-edge and goes high under the night sky - mid-wicket ran forward, but Josh Inglis was clear that it was his catch and he doesn't miss out. Phil Salt c Josh Inglis b Arshdeep Singh 4(4) [4s-1]
