Dhawan and Iyer look for quick singles. Iyer injures his foot, hitting a ball onto it, adding to his injury woes. Jadeja gets a direct hit and Dhawan is saved by inches. Big appeal for LBW for Chahar against Iyer. CSK have DC under the cosh. Iyer gets going in the 6th over, as Shardul Thakur continues. A six over long on. Dhawan cuts for four.

DC are yet to win this season batting second. 180 to get in Sharjah. Will tonight be the night? Prithvi Shaw and Dhawan open. Deepak Chahar takes the new ball for the 1st over. And gets Prithvi Shaw off the second ball. Caught and bowled. DC 0/1 after 0.2
Nortje bowls the 20th. Jadeja lays into him. Six down the ground. And again! Back to back sixes. CSK finish with 179/4 after 20 overs. Rayudu stays not out on 45, Jadeja on 33. A quick cameo by Jadeja at the back end again helps CSK post a competetive total. DC need 180 to win.

Du Plessis gets to his 50, off 39 balls, with a single. But it's Nortje who then breaks the partnership. Watson is bowled. He goes for 36. An 87-run partnership between these two has given CSK a perfect platform to fire in the overs that remain. Will they? Rayudu is in at 3. CSK 87/2 after 11.4
Du Plessis and Watson both bludgeon Ashwin for fours on either side of the wicket. Watson fires another four down the ground to end the over. 15 runs from Ashwin's over. Is this a change of momentum for CSK? Deshpande bowls the 11th. Du Plessis fires a six down the ground. Another four to end the over. Runs coming in a heap for CSK now. CSK 85/1 after 11

Du Plessis takes his time at the other end too. 4 runs off the first 15 balls. And then Watson does what he does best - an arrogant straight drive down the ground. Minimal movement. A pull for four to finish the over. CSK 12/1 after 3
It's Sam Curran and Faf du Plessis who are CSK's openers again, walking out to begin the first innings. Delhi Capitals bowl Tushar Deshpande in the first over. Curran holes out at third man off the third ball. CSK 0/1 after 0.3

AB de Villiers has handed Bangalore a memorable win and he did it all alone. He finishes the match with a massive six, bringing up his fifty and handing his team the precious two points. From 35 runs off the last two overs, the South African (55* off 22 balls) has managed to give Bangalore a seven-wicket win with two balls to spare. RCB ended the innings on 179/3 after 19.4 overs.
After 10 runs in Tyagi's 18th over, ABD decides to up the ante and he does it in some style. Unadkat comes charging in and he hits him for a maximum over midwicket. And then another, and another! Three in three! From 35 off 12, De Villiers (47* off 20) has single-handedly brought Bangalore to fighting distance: the equation now stands at 10 runs off 6 balls. RCB: 168/3 (19 overs)
