It was the most straightforward run-out chance you would ever imagine. Dinesh Karthik was not in another postcode but in another hemisphere, The throw was pinpoint accurate, straight into the palms of the bowler, Yuzvendra Chahal. He just had to gather, whistle a few times, wink a few times more and gently dislodge the bails. He could have played the tease. But instead, he was over-eager to see off Karthik, the last man that stood between Royals and a victory. He made an utter mess of the collection, groping the air and removing the bails even before the ball had reached him, The ball then slipped through his body, and Chahal did his bit of frantic break-dancing to find the ball. All this while, Karthik was not even in the frame—resigned to his fate, he was ambling crease-ward. Realising that he still had a chance to make the ground, he accelerated. But by then, Chahal somehow discovered the ball and affected the run out, catching Karthik inches short. In pure relief, Chahal then slumped onto the turf.

Kuldeep in to bowl the 17th and is promptly hit for a four by Hasaranga. You do not bowl to him there. Brilliant fielding in the deep now. Back to back 2 runs from the next two balls. And that's another one down. Kuldeep also gets his 3rd wicket. RCB almost down for the count. Caught and bowled Hasaranga. RCB 102/8 after 16.4 overs.
Ashwin in to bowl the 16th and is that a stumping?? Umpire referral on as we go upstairs. Foot is grounded. Hasaranga still in this. RCB need big hits now. Shahbaz had to go for it and that's gone!!! What a catch by Parag. He can do no wrong tonight. RCB 92/7 after 15.4 overs.
Chahal in to bowl his 3rd over and that's a four to start. The placement was exquisite by Hasaranga. They need more of that. Just 7 off this over. RCB 90/6 after 15 overs
Prasidh in for his second spell now. Back to back wides to start. Huge hit by Shahbaz for a six!!! That connected sweetly. 11 from this over. RCB 83/6 after 14 overs
Oh my. Could have been a run out. If that was a direct hit, it was curtains for Shahbaz. Karthik now hits a four off Chahal's 2nd ball. Oh my god!! What just happened??? Dinesh Karthik was gone but I think Chahal missed the wicket. Replays show that Chahal took a lot of time to hit the stumps but Karthik still does not reach his crease. That's out!!! RCB 72/6 after 12.4 overs.
Ashwin in to bowl the 12th over and he has taken another wicket. Royal Challengers Bangalore are on the verge of another collapse again. Prabhudessai is caught by Parag. RCB 66/5 after 11.4 overs
R Ashwin cleans up Rajat Patidar. He departs for 16. Wicket no 150 for R Ashwin in the IPL.
Kuldeep Sen bowling to Rajat Patidar, short length ball, pitching on leg stump, Rajat Patidar plays an aggressive pull shot on the front foot for 6 runs. Royal Challengers Bangalore need 90 runs in 66 balls.
Kuldeep Sen you beauty! Glenn Maxwell is gone for a duck. Back to back, huge wickets! Glenn Maxwell goes for a back-foot push and ends up producing an outside edge which carries to the slip fielder. Devdutt Padikkal takes a good catch.
Beaten by pace. Faf du Plessis departs for 23. Kuldeep Sen with the wicket. Kuldeep Sen strikes in his first over and gets the wicket of the RCB skipper. Faf Du Plessis drives this aerially, doesn't get the required elevation and Buttler times his jump at covers to take the catch.
Three dots and Faf goes down the ground for a maximum! Ravichandran Ashwin bowling to Faf Du Plessis, good length ball, pitching on off stump, Faf Du Plessis makes room for himself and lofts this over the bowler's head for a six. RCB need 108 runs in 84 balls.
Trent Boult bowling to Faf Du Plessis, good length ball, pitching outside off stump, Faf Du Plessis gets on top of the ball and punches this wide of mid-off for four. RCB need 115 runs in 90 balls.

A wry smile escaped Virat Kohli's face. Then he gave his partner Faf du Plessis a half-relieved look. Kohli would have easily perished for his third zero on the bounce, but for a matter of centimetres. Third ball of the Trent Boult over, he flicked a ball off his hips, but straight in the direction of square leg, where Daryll Mitchell was prowling. Fortunately for Kohli, the air-borne ball—lucky that he had not timed the ball as sweetly as he would have in better times—dropped in front of the plunging Mitchell. Boult, whose arms had already begun a high-five, exchanged a disbelieving look at Kohli. The next ball was fired almost at the same spot, but the length was fuller and Kohli crunched it towards the left of Mitchell for a four. Duck averted, but Kohli would have floundered the very next ball. He French-cut the next past the keeper for another four. The frame repeated the next ball, only the edge was not chunky enough to reach the fence or straight enough to the keeper's grasp. Kohli gazed soberly—he might have had a sense of foreboding that his luck would eventually fizzle out. It did, four balls later, at the hands of Prasidh Krishna.

Prasidh goes short to Faf and the RCB skipper absolutely crunched it at the deep mid-wicket boundary. RCB need 123 runs in 96 balls.
Trent Boult bowling to Rajat Patidar, short of a good length ball, pitching outside off stump, Rajat Patidar plays an aggressive cover drive on the front foot for 4 runs. RCB need 130 runs from 108 balls.
Virat Kohli ran out of luck. Prasidh Krishna strikes. Virat's woes with the bat continue. A short-pitched delivery from Prasidh takes an edge off his bat onto his helmet and straight to Riyan Parag at point.
A couple of lemon cuts, one goes down to the fine-leg boundary while the other missed the off stump by a whisker. Nine runs came from Boult's first over. RCB need 136 runs to win from 114 balls.
Virat Kohli is off and running. Yes, you have heard it correctly, Virat Kohli is off the mark with a boundary. A ball before he sirvied closely as the fall short of short square leg.
