Royal Challengers Bengaluru vs Punjab Kings, Final - Live Cricket Score, Commentary

Arshdeep Singh to Bhuvneshwar, out Caught by Priyansh Arya!! Arshdeep Singh you beauty. His first three overs went for 37 runs, but he's conceded just 3 runs and taken 3 wickets in his final over. Cometh the hour, cometh the man. This was a full toss though, Bhuvi had no choice but to go for it and mistimed it straight to long-on. Bhuvneshwar c Priyansh Arya b Arshdeep Singh 1(2)

Arshdeep Singh to Krunal Pandya, out Caught by Shreyas Iyer!! He's gone next ball. This was slot, but it's that inswing that Arshdeep Singh is getting with the old ball. Krunal thought he could belt this down the ground, but the bat turned in his hands and holed out to long-on. Easy catch and pouched safely. Krunal Pandya c Shreyas Iyer b Arshdeep Singh 4(5)

Arshdeep Singh to Shepherd, out Lbw!! He might have been off colour in the last few games but come the crunch time he delivers. Stunning, outswinging yorker that Romario could do nothing about. The batter went deep in the crease for a big heave on the on-side, Romario was nowhere close to the ball when he swung and missed. Impact in line with middle and hitting off stump according to DRS and RCB lose the review. Shepherd lbw b Arshdeep Singh 17(9) [4s-1 6s-1]

Azmatullah to Shepherd, SIX, Romarioooo!! This is a monster hit. He is an absolute beast when he gets it in his arc. Brilliant comeback from RCB after a quiet start to the over. Azmatullah went full for some reason and offered slot, Romario gopt under that ball and sent it into orbit

Azmatullah to Shepherd, FOUR, top edge and it clears short fine leg. That will do for RCB. Short and outside off stump, Romario tries to fetch the pull, was pace off, so he couldn't connect, edge flies and escapes for four

Vijaykumar Vyshak to Jitesh Sharma, out Bowled!! And he's knocked him over next ball. Vijaykumar Vyshak wants to celebrate with a fist pump but controls himself. Length delivery from Vijaykumar Vyshak, Jitesh swung hard, inside edge onto back thigh and disturbing the off stump. Jitesh was looking dominant again and this is a big dent for RCB. Jitesh Sharma b Vijaykumar Vyshak 24(10) [4s-2 6s-2]

Vijaykumar Vyshak to Jitesh Sharma, no run, good review from Jitesh. Inglis didn't go up straightaway but umpire Nitin Menon raised the finger. Short of a length delivery outside off stump, Jitesh tried to steer it down to third man but misses

Jamieson to Livingstone, out Lbw!! That is so unlucky for Livingstone. Just like how Dewald Brevis missed a full toss at Chinnaswamy, Livingstone swung hard at this knee high freebie and missed. Swung too hard and lost shape, impact on the back thigh in front of leg stump. Strong appeal and the ump though for a while before saying out. Ball-tracker shows ball shaving the outside of leg stump. Game of small margins. Could have almost been not out. Important cameo from Livingstone though. Livingstone lbw b Jamieson 25(15) [6s-2]

Jamieson to Livingstone, SIX, muscled! That's exactly what Livingstone has done. The leg-cutting slower ball into the wicket. I know what's coming, so I will delay the bat swing. Picks the slower ball from the hand and smashes it over mid-wicket. This went deep into the stands

Jamieson to Jitesh Sharma, SIX, this is high and long as well! This is a stunning innings from Jitesh under pressure. He is toying around with the tactics of PBKS. He has challenged the short ball ploy, now the bowler tries to go length and he runs down the track and muscle it high over long-off. Not exactly off the middle of the bat but still went the distance

Jamieson to Jitesh Sharma, wide, slower ball bumper now but it's too high. PBKS want a review but this looked wide for sure. Batter height 1.84, ball height 2.2m

Jamieson to Jitesh Sharma, SIX, oh my word! Jitesh has played a stunning scoop shot. PBKS have telegraphed the plan to him - everything has been short. But the audacity Jitesh had to not even move inside the line while trying to scoop. He had to really bend the back. Could have gone straight into his head but he's scooped is so fine and so well over the ropes

Arshdeep Singh to Jitesh Sharma, FOUR, back away and slash the ball! Classic response to a short ball ploy. Width offered, Jitesh stayed leg-side of the ball and sliced that almost over deep point for a maximum

Arshdeep Singh to Jitesh Sharma, FOUR, edgeddd and fingertipped! Looks like Arshdeep Singh wants to bounce out Jitesh. Was a short delivery at the head, slightly leg-sidish, Jitesh swings and gets a fine edge, Josh Inglis jumped to the left but couldn't collect that. Toughie!

Azmatullah to Kohli, out Caught&Bowled!! Outstanding catch from Azmatullah. He was obstructed by the non-striker when he was going for the catch. Livingstone was only trying to take a single and it wasn't anything deliberate. Short ball into the pitch and rising tall. Virat looked to pull, got a big top edge. The bowler ran into the non-striker as he was attempting the catch because there was no one at mid-wicket. There was enough air time on the ball and Azmatullah could recover, gather speed, stretch full length and take it with both hands. Made sure the ball didn't pop out when the elbows hit the ground. Big moment this. Virat was looking to bat through like he usually does in big games. Kohli c and b Azmatullah 43(35) [4s-3]

Chahal to Kohli, FOUR, lovely, they're starting to look aggressive now, flighted delivery on off, Kohli gets down low and then plays the slog-sweep, clears mid-wicket and bounces away to the ropes

Chahal to Livingstone, SIX, hammered, Livingstone could be the man to provide momentum for RCB, was the leg-break, but he gave the charge, makes room and then smashes it high over long-off for a maximum

Chahal to Livingstone, 1 run, flighted delivery outside off, dropped to the left of cover-point for a single

Jamieson to Rajat Patidar, out Lbw!! A celebappeal for LBW, umpire Jayaraman Madanagopal raises the finger, Patidar knew it would be futile to go up for the review and off he goes. Change of pace working wonders for Jamieson, another slower ball which dipped onto the right-hander, Patidar shuffled across and was a dead duck once he missed it, crashed into the pads, the impact was in front of middle and leg and it's easily crashing into the stumps. Rajat Patidar lbw b Jamieson 26(16) [4s-1 6s-2]

Jamieson to Rajat Patidar, SIX, beautifully played, the slower ball and Patidar has picked it with ease, backs away, opens up the off-side and then hoists it over mid-off, sails over the ropes for a maximum

Azmatullah to Kohli, FOUR, cheeky and four, back of a length and well wide of off, Kohli waits on it and then runs it fine, past the keeper, one bounce and over the ropes

Chahal to Rajat Patidar, SIX, hammered, that should get Patidar going, tossed up on off, he picked the length early, planted his front-foot forward and then hoisted it high over long-on for a maximum

Vijaykumar Vyshak to Rajat Patidar, FOUR, beautifully played, sheer class from Rajat Patidar, back of a length and just outside off, he lets the ball come, uses Vijaykumar's pace and then beats backward point with the steer, third man has no chance

Chahal to Mayank Agarawal, out Caught by Arshdeep Singh!! Catching practice at deep backward square leg - dragged short and at the right-hander, Mayank backed himself on clearing the fielder in the deep with the slog-sweep, but he's played it a fraction too early, hits high on the bat and lobs down to Arshdeep in the deep. He reverse cups and Punjab have their second wicket. Mayank Agarawal c Arshdeep Singh b Chahal 24(18) [4s-2 6s-1]

Vijaykumar Vyshak to Mayank Agarawal, FOUR, Mayank gets away and gets away with a boundary, was a full ball, looked like it was Vijaykumar's knuckle ball, Mayank backed away and then went through with the lofted drive, didn't get hold of the shot and had the fielder interested all the while - Arshdeep it was, but the ball bounces in front of him, hits his body as he looked to drag it back and hits the ropes

Jamieson to Mayank Agarawal, FOUR, beautifully played, back of a length and well wide of off, Mayank waits on it and then cuts it late, beats backward point to his right and the fielder in the deep has no chance

Jamieson to Kohli, FOUR, that's easy pickings and RCB are once again picking up some momentum, another half-volley, on the pads and Kohli stylishly flicks it down to the long leg boundary

Arshdeep Singh to Mayank Agarawal, SIX, that's clean as a whistle and Mayank has sent it soaring over mid-off, a floaty slower half-volley, he leans forward, gets under the length and swings it through the line

Jamieson to Phil Salt, out Caught by Shreyas Iyer!! A massive swipe, but it's gone nowwhere in terms of distance, very high and towards mid-on - Shreyas back-tracked, got into an excellent position and that allowed him to stay still under the ball, takes it with ease and the celebrations begin in the Punjab camp. A massive wicket, Salt could've blown them away in the batting PP. Was a length delivery and was there to be smashed, but he got it low of the bat, lots of height and no real distance. Phil Salt c Shreyas Iyer b Jamieson 16(9) [4s-2 6s-1]

Jamieson to Phil Salt, FOUR, thumped, on a good length and angling back into the right-hander, Salt leans across and then muscles the drive over mid-on, bounces away to the ropes

Arshdeep Singh to Phil Salt, FOUR, top-edge and four, Salt has come out guns blazing, banged in short and at the body, he swivels across and pulls it fine, almost went all the way, bouncing right in front of the ropes

Arshdeep Singh to Phil Salt, SIX, hammered, Salt is up and running, back of a length and at the hips, the right-hander gets inside the line and then swats it over long leg, sails over the leaping fielder for a maximum
