00:04Five-time champions, Mumbai Indians against the defending champions in the Royal Challenges of Bengaluru.
00:12Coin went up, call was incorrect, so it was Harakwania, and the Mumbai Indians who won the toss chose to
00:19bowl first.
00:20Two changes for RCB, the main absentee being Josh Hazelwood, not to worry.
00:26Jacob Guthrie comes in, he was man of the match in the first game.
00:29You can see that Hardik Pandya has brought back Mayank Markhande, and he's also got back Mitchell Santana.
00:39Bill Salt, look at that strike three.
00:44174, and he will open the batting with the one and only, Virat Kohli.
00:51Great fight with the new ball.
00:55There's that movement, goes out to the deep on the leg side, and all the way for six.
01:03Himself some room and carves it through the offside.
01:09Oh, finds the gap this time through the covers.
01:13Bowls again.
01:14And Kohli down the wicket, down the ground.
01:21Pulls and powerfully deep mid-wicket for half a dozen.
01:28Up and over for four.
01:30Pace off, I think.
01:34Short.
01:35Gets the treatment.
01:39Here goes again.
01:41That's huge.
01:42The 50 partnership comes up in a double quick time.
01:49And again.
01:51Three on the trot.
01:58He's put that away for four as well.
02:03Here's Markhande.
02:05It's in the gap.
02:06Into the fence.
02:08And a 50 for Phil Salt.
02:11It's come up just 25 balls.
02:17And again.
02:23And again through the offside.
02:29He's back dead.
02:35That has just raced across the green.
02:41Shots of catch it.
02:43Oh!
02:44So close.
02:46Namandia with the dive.
02:47And he couldn't quite get a hold of it.
02:50It's gone for four.
02:54Oh!
02:55Oh!
02:55Banged away.
02:56Full toss.
02:57Looking for that Yorker.
02:59Missed and punished.
03:01Big!
03:06Oh!
03:08Just short.
03:09Just short.
03:11Trent Bolt with the effort.
03:13And couldn't quite get there.
03:21Be ready for the opportunity.
03:24The pressure builds and builds and builds.
03:27And then the bow breaks.
03:29He's gone for 78.
03:31He's scored 124-1.
03:32Brings in Rajat Patidhar.
03:38He's gone for 78.
03:56Yes.
03:58It'll be six more.
03:59That one just creeps over.
04:02It's a reverse.
04:06That swung away.
04:08Beats the man in the deep.
04:13That's up.
04:14In the air.
04:16And in the gap as well.
04:18And it's gone the distance.
04:23That's hit straight back.
04:25Into the fence.
04:29Nicely played.
04:31He really is playing the field beautifully.
04:36And again.
04:38It's mighty.
04:40It's six.
04:43Swung away.
04:45Half century for Birat Kohli.
04:48And it's taken him 37 boards.
04:54That's well struck and taken in the deep.
04:59Right on the boundary.
05:02Hardik Pandya gets his man.
05:04And Surya Kumar taking a good catch lowdown.
05:07So the partnership broken.
05:08Birat Kohli.
05:09He played his park.
05:1050 off 38.
05:11RCB.
05:12185 for two.
05:14The big hitting Tim David has come out to the middle.
05:20And that will go into the fence.
05:22And a brilliant innings this from the captain.
05:26His fastest 50 in IPL cricket.
05:28He's reached there of just 17 balls.
05:35That should be taken.
05:38And that should be taken.
05:39Tilakwarma again.
05:40Making no mistake.
05:42And this is a good period of play for Mumbai Indians.
05:45They're pulling things back.
05:46Khatada.
05:47He made some damage.
05:4853 of 20.
05:50RCB 194 for the thing.
05:53Jitesh Sharma.

06:13Deep into the leg side.
06:15Makes the most of it.
06:16Tim David.
06:20He's been hammered down the ground for four.
06:25He picked that up.
06:26And it has gone all the way.
06:29Four and a six for Tim David.
06:33Right there.
06:34That's out.
06:34That is out.
06:35All day.
06:36Every day.
06:36Twice on Sundays.
06:38An aerial bolts game where the last two years really have seen a great improvement in that Yorkers.
06:47York State for the test tonight.
06:50This is the 10th and 231 for four.
06:52For Mario Shepard.
06:57Oh, he misses just.
06:59Misses just.
07:00And that's all you have to do when Tim David is on strike.
07:04Minimal miss from both.
07:06And David manages to park it out of the ground.
07:09240 they'll finish with RCB.
07:13This is what lies in front of the Mumbai Indians.
07:18241 runs required on a really good surface from just 120 balls.
07:23They have good partnership there.
07:25They certainly have the potential.
07:28They showed in game one.
07:30Here's Jacob Duffy.
07:31And his beginning was good.
07:36There's a fielder there.
07:38Oh, he can only watch as it sails over for six.
07:45Shot.
07:47Such a good shot.

08:04Solvarez off the bat.
08:08Oh, yes.
08:14And, oh, just passed.

08:21Oh, 6,000 plus runs in the IPN for Mumbai Indians.
08:32Nicely nudged.
08:34Oh, it's in the gap.
08:40That's a great shot.
08:43Four balls remaining in the power plate.
08:45And Ruach Sharma will retire hurt.

08:49The new man at the crease.
08:53Straight for four.
08:56Sky's innings underway.
09:00Picks that up.
09:01Sky.
09:02And one bounce, four.
09:04Fine enough.
09:07Straight up.
09:08He'll have one first ball.
09:09Should be the keepers.
09:11Called off it by Bhuvi.

09:15And Suyash first ball.
09:18Picks up a wicket.
09:19He goes for 37, 72 for one.

09:25In the middle now.
09:29Duffy.
09:30Catch.
09:31Little top edge.
09:33Suyash is going to double in the over.

10:14Real quality.
10:15Here's Bubun Eshwar.
10:17Starts off with a four.
10:21Oh, good strike.
10:27Oh, not pick.
10:28Can't get four.
10:34Nicely timed.
10:35Bounder to Andy Alder.
10:41Slower.
10:42It's up and it's out.
10:45What a catch.
10:46Great wicket.
10:47Once again.
10:49Coming in and making the breakthrough.
10:54Very clever ball.
10:57Three wickets out.
10:581.21 in the 13th door.
11:01Main run of it.
11:02In the plant.
11:03Markkande.
11:04Out.
11:08And it down the ground.
11:09Chance.
11:10Saw burst.
11:11Brunal Pandya.
11:12He would have loved to have taken that one.
11:19But plenty of that.
11:20There's Rutherford into the top tier.
11:23Big six.
11:27Very clever indeed.
11:29From Hardik.
11:32High.
11:33He wants it.
11:37Easy for Romario Shepard.
11:40And Duffy's picked up his first of the night.
11:43Big one too in that of Hardik Pandya.
11:46And Hardik Pandya's not for 41.
11:4745 for four.
11:49And the run rate required at 18.
11:52And the run rate required at 18.
11:53No one did.
11:57He's got plenty of that.
11:59Has he?
11:59He has.
12:00Into the grandstand.
12:01Great start.
12:02Perfect start to the over.
12:06Out.
12:07Should be out.
12:08And it is.
12:08Roger Potida with the catch.
12:10The captain.
12:11And Orosik's got his first of the night.
12:13He's pumped up about it as well.
12:15No one did.
12:17Am I?
12:181.54 for five.
12:21Long way to go now for the Mumbai Indians.
12:2387 off 27.
12:25Mitchell Santner.
12:28Really good from Rutherford.
12:30He's struggling every ball.
12:32Basically either down on the ground or clutching at that calf.
12:36Almost every ball.
12:38You go off the field and take the treatment and then come back.
12:42And that you're over whatever it is.
12:43Five ball.
12:45Four delivery should be bowled by another ball to complete the over.
12:49But again now.
12:50This is what?
12:51The third or the fourth.
12:51Third time the physio has come in.
12:54So I think he's going.
12:56I think that's it.
12:58One ball to finish the over for Romario Shepard.
13:01He'll pick up a wicket, will he?
13:03Oh, caught in bold chance.
13:05The big fella.
13:05He's gone.
13:06He takes it.
13:08Brilliant from Romario Shepard.
13:09He had to track all the way to the edge of the circle.
13:15But he's overstipped.
13:16Has he overstipped?
13:17Stop it.
13:18Oh, no, Romario.
13:21Yeah.
13:22This slides over.
13:29That'll go for four.
13:33That's well struck.
13:35For six.
13:41This hits sixes for fun, Rutherford.
13:48That's well struck.
13:49For six.
13:50He's playing his part here, Rutherford.
13:55And he'll go for four.
14:00Oh, smash that for six.
14:03And it's 50 here for Rutherford.
14:0626 balls.
14:07He's first in the IPL.
14:12That's huge.
14:13What a sound.
14:14He does give it a whack.
14:20What a shot that is.
14:26Oh, my word.
14:28That is long.
14:29What a shot to finish it off.
14:33What a shot to finish it off.
14:33He finishes off with 71.
14:35But it's a win here for the Royal Challengers.
14:38Big last over.
14:39But you always would say that RCB had their nose in front.
14:43And this is a very good win.
14:45Asked to bat first.
14:46They scored 240.
14:47And now have restricted the Mumbai Indians to 222 for five.
