Royal Challengers Bengaluru vs Mumbai Indians Match Highlights & Results

Two down, eight teams still remain in the hunt - Right then, another week in the 2026 IPL comes to an end and we now have just a couple of more weeks of league stage action remaining. The points table is starting to get really congested in the middle, with all but two teams still vying for a top-four finish. We now head into the new week with the backdrop now switching to the scenic Himalayas as the Punjab Kings welcome the Delhi Capitals to Dharamsala for Match 55 of the season. That game will be played on Monday, May 11, and will begin at 7.30 pm IST (2 pm GMT), but you can join us a lot sooner for the build-up. Cheers!

POTM - Bhuvneshwar Kumar gets the award for his fine spell of bowling - 4-0-23-4 and also that game-changing six in the final over. When asked what he will remember most from this game, Bhuvneshwar says the six he hit in the final over is something he will carry with him for a very long time. Says he enjoyed it the most. On what keeps motivating him, he adds that motivation is an overrated word for him, something that fades quickly. It is discipline, he says, that keeps him going. He credits his physios for keeping him in shape and acknowledges that there are surfaces where nothing happens for him, and surfaces where it does. He says the important thing is that he is getting enough match practice, having played the SMAT recently, and that has been enough to keep him in good touch. He admits that the levels are different in the IPL, but the camps during the tournament help him work accordingly and do what needs to be done.

The captain of Royal Challengers Bengaluru - Rajat Patidar says his pulse is back to normal now after what turned out to be a very tight game. Calling it a great contest, the RCB skipper credits Krunal Pandya for winning the game for them, while also revealing that sending him in at No. 5 was a team decision. Patidar also heaps praise on Bhuvneshwar Kumar, calling his spell unbelievable on a two-paced surface. He says Bhuvneshwar’s control over the ball was superb and that the veteran seamer was extremely difficult to face on a pitch. Rajat says the team is not too bothered about the points table at the moment, adding that RCB’s mantra has simply been to play to their strengths and focus on playing good cricket consistently. Patidar admits that RCB did not deserve to win the match despite getting over the line, saying the side should have chased the target far more comfortably given the strength of their batting lineup.

The Presentation ceremony...

Bhuvi rips through MI's batting order - Earlier in the game, Rajat Patidar put Mumbai Indians into bat on a pitch that no one really knew much about. There was swing on offer and Bhuvneshwar Kumar made the most of it, reducing MI to 28/3 in just 3 overs. Then came the big stand between Naman Dhir and Tilak Varma as they added 82 runs for the fourth wicket and MI were back in it. However, the RCB pacers closed things out well at the death, picking up wickets at regular intervals, and that didn't allow Mumbai to cut loose when needed most as Bhuvi ended with a four-fer. In the end, MI managed to put on a middling score of 166 on the board, which was nearly enough in the end, but not quite.

RCB's stalwart with the bat has his say - Krunal Pandya says that he is delighted to contribute to the team's win. He reveals he was battling severe cramps throughout his innings, starting from his calf before spreading to his glutes and back. He laughs it off, admitting he does not usually bat that long. He says he loves tough situations and always prepares for them, and while he wanted to finish the game, he could not. He singles out Bhuvneshwar's shot as the shot of the match and reflects on the nature of the surface, saying it was a wicket where you had to apply yourself, grind it out and play proper cricketing shots rather than simply targeting bowlers. On his physical condition, he says the cramps were severe but hopes to be fine. He adds that he backed himself to handle the spinner and was batting well enough to take on. He mentions that as a batting group, they have been having conversations about trusting your instincts and taking on a bowler for all six balls if you fancy them. On his camaraderie with Kieron Pollard, he calls him his big brother and says his best six years in cricket came at MI. He gets visibly emotional, calls Pollard a terrific human being and the GOAT of the format, someone who won the trophies and games alongside the Pandya brothers as part of Mumbai's engine room.

Mumbai go down, but not without a real fight - Mumbai Indians might be out of the tournament, but it was a spirited performance with the ball tonight from them. Deepak Chahar got the ball to talk early on and picked up a couple of wickets as Jasprit Bumrah kept things tight. Corbin Bosch was the real wrecker-in-chief as he went on to pick up four wickets, most of them at vital stages of the game as well, but it just wasn't enough. AM Ghazanfar was a bit off color but did get a big wicket towards the end and unfortunately, Raj Bawa had to bear most of the brunt from the batters, including that final over, one he will feel, he nearly executed to perfection barring a couple of deliveries.

Let's now hear from the Mumbai Indians skipper - Suryakumar Yadav says Bawa has been working hard on his death bowling and has shown real improvement. He adds that the youngster has developed into a completely different all-rounder this year. Suryakumar feels MI were 10-15 runs short and believes they lost wickets at the wrong moments. Says the way Naman Dhir and Tilak Varma batted showed tremendous character, adding that the duo made the surface look like a completely different track. SKY mentions that the team will continue trying to put their best foot forward despite the difficult season. Admits MI are not used to being in such positions and says that this is a hard pill to swallow.

Bowlers win it for RCB - Things were set up brilliantly in the first innings for the reigning champions, thanks to Bhuvneshwar Kumar's four-wicket haul, but with the bat, it went all wrong in the Powerplay. This season, whenever RCB have lost 2 or more wickets in the Powerplay, they have gone on to lose, and they were 3 down for 39. This is when Krunal Pandya walked out to bat, and he steadied the ship, building a solid partnership with Jacob Bethell, but wickets started to fall again, and Pandya had to take a few more risks. He winced in pain as cramps started to take over, but he managed to conjure up 73 runs. And even that almost wasn't enough, but Bhuvneshwar Kumar hit an unreal six over covers, and then Rasikh Salam got bat to ball on the final ball and managed to complete the second run, taking the RCB over the line in a classic.

The Champions show their mettle - What a way to get back to winning ways and shoot to the top of the table from Royal Challengers Bengaluru, and in doing so, they have knocked out not just the Mumbai Indians but also the Lucknow Super Giants from the playoff race. In days gone by, this game would be termed as a thriller, but given the scores we see nowadays, this was certainly a low-scoring thriller, one for the ages, but sadly for MI, it ends in defeat, and their hopes of a sixth title in 2026 are done and dusted.

Raj Bawa to Rasikh Salam, 2 runs.Salam survives and RCB get home! Full and around off. Salam pushes it back to the bowler, but Bawa gets a hand on it and the ball deflects away towards long on. Both batters are quick to spot the opportunity and scamper for two. Corbin Bosch charges in and fires it back to the keeper, who collects and breaks the stumps. Salam flings himself into a dive and drags his bat inside the crease. The third umpire is called in to check for the run out. Salam had flung himself into a dive, and while the bat popped out of his hand on landing, it was in contact with the willow when he made his ground. The third umpire confirms it. What a dramatic end to an absolute nail-biter in Raipur. A low-scoring thriller, living worth the billing. RCB WIN BY 2 WICKETS. And with that, the Mumbai Indians and Lucknow Super Giants are officially knocked out of the playoff race.

Is that a run out? The RCB players don't think so, and they are swarming the field. The third umpire has a look and confirms that Rasikh Salam has put in a match-winning dive. The bat popped out of his hand, but it was in contact with the willow when he made his ground, and it will be NOT OUT.

Raj Bawa to Bhuvneshwar Kumar, 1 run.Slower one, across the right-hander, on a good length. Bhuvneshwar Kumar miscues it down to long off for a single. RCB need 2 runs from the last delivery!

Raj Bawa to Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Six!SIX! JUST OVER! My word, he has cleared the ropes. A magnificent strike from Bhuvneshwar Kumar. Fuller and wide outside off. Bhuvi gets forward and opens the face, slicing it over sweeper cover with an inside out lofted shot. The fielder leaps but the ball sails over him for six runs.

Raj Bawa to Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Wide!WIDE! Dear me! Slower bumper, but way, way too high over the batter's head. Bhuvneshwar Kumar lets it fly back to the keeper. Wide called. RCB need 9 runs from 3 balls.

Bhuvneshwar Kumar walks out to bat now.

Raj Bawa to Romario Shepherd, OUT! c Tilak Varma b Raj Bawa.OUT! TAKEN EASILY​​! Raj Bawa has picked up the most important wicket for his side. Fuller this time and wide outside off. Shepherd is well outside his crease and looks to slice it through the off side, but gets nowhere near the middle of it. The ball flies off the toe end and is sliced straight to Varma at backward point, who leaps and takes it comfortably. RCB lose their 8th wicket.

Raj Bawa to Romario Shepherd, No run.Well bowled! Stays around the stump and bowls a wide yorker, outside off. Romario Shepherd swings hard, but is beaten by a whisker on the outside edge. Romario Shepherd and Rasikh Salam converge for a chat to review for a wide, but they decide not to. A crucial, crucial dot ball from Bawa.

Raj Bawa to Rasikh Salam, 2 Wides!Two Wides! The pressure is showing on Raj Bawa. Tries to keep it away from the hitting arc of the batter, but bowls it too wide, outside the tramline. Rasikh Salam swings and misses and the ball rolls back to the keeper. Ryan Rickelton releases an underarm throw to the batting end, but misses his shy and the batters complete the bye. 10 needed off 5 balls now.

Raj Bawa to Romario Shepherd, 1 run.Oh, goodness! This just doesn't rise from a short length, outside off. Romario Shepherd swings with all his might to pull into the stands, but the ball stays underground and squirts off the toe end to deep mid-wicket for a single. 12 needed off 5 balls.

A change of bat for Romario Shepherd as he's chipped the toe end.

Raj Bawa to Romario Shepherd, No ball!Good execution this time! A wide yorker, outside off, Romario Shepherd fails to get under the ball and drills it back to the bowler off the toe end. Oh, dear! The buzzer of doom goes off in Raipur for MI. Raj has overstepped and it is a No Ball. A Free Hit coming up...

What a time to bowl a No Ball!

Raj Bawa to Romario Shepherd, Wide!WIDE! Bowls from around the stump, Raj pushes it wide across the batter, on a fuller length. Romario Shepherd stays put and throws everything left in the tank, but misses to connect. The ball breaches the tramline and it is called a wide.

Who will bowl the final over? MI have options in terms of spin and also a seamer in the face of Raj Bawa. It will be Raj Bawa to bowl the final over and try and defend 14 runs.

Jasprit Bumrah to Romario Shepherd, Leg bye.Pinpoint yorker around leg. Shepherd cannot get his bat to it again, and the ball clips the toe of his left boot and trickles down towards cover-point. A leg bye is taken, and Romario retains the strike.

Jasprit Bumrah to Romario Shepherd, No run.This is world-class death bowling by Bumrah. Nails in another searing yorker around leg. Shepherd tries to jam it out but misses completely, and the ball clips his front pad and squirts away to the left of the keeper. Both batters fancy a bye and set off, but the keeper does well to collect it on the move and fires at the stumps, but misses.

Jasprit Bumrah to Romario Shepherd, No run.MI lose both their reviews! Bumrah spears it into the batter, on a fuller length, angling from middle to leg. Romario Shepherd gets a touch across in the crease and tries to work it across the line, but plays all over it and is hit on the front pad. A massive, confident appeal for LBW, but the umpire shakes his head. Bumrah is pumped up and wants it to be reviewed. SKY walks up to him to have a chat. Rickelton is a bit reluctant, but Suryakumar trusts his bowler and takes the review. UltraEdge shows no bat involved, and Ball Tracking shows that the ball is projected to miss the leg stump. So, the on-field decision is upheld.

Jasprit Bumrah to Romario Shepherd, No run.Well bowled! Slower bumper from Bumrah, angled into the batter. Romario Shepherd ducks under it. The ball bounces in front of Ryan Rickelton, who does well to gather it. 16 needed off 9.

Jasprit Bumrah to Rasikh Salam, 1 run.Length ball, around off, Rasikh runs it behind to deep third for a single only.

Jasprit Bumrah to Romario Shepherd, 1 run.Full, tailing in on leg, Romario Shepherd flicks it to deep square leg for a single. 150 UP FOR RCB!

RCB needed 18 off 12 balls. Surely, Jasprit Bumrah has to bowl the 19th over, right? Yes, it will be Bumrah. Also, Rasikh Salam has come out to bat ahead of Bhuvneshwar Kumar.

AM Ghazanfar to Krunal Pandya, OUT! c Tilak Varma b AM Ghazanfar.OUT! TAKEN! Sensational athleticism by Tilak Varma and this game is far from being over. Full and around off. Krunal goes deep in his crease and looks to clear the boundary downtown, but does not get the timing right and hits it flat to the left of long on. Tilak Varma tracks it to his left and takes a stunning catch, but his momentum is taking him over the rope. He keeps his composure, flicks the ball back into the playing area before crossing the boundary. He comes back in and completes the catch. The third umpire has a look, and the replays confirm that it is a clean catch. Krunal Pandya walks back and is received with a huge round of applause by his teammates. But he would be gutted to have not got the job done for his side. RCB are 149/7, needing 18 off 12 balls.

Has Tilak Varma pulled off a stunning catch here? He seems confident, and if Tilak has pulled it off, then it's another big twist in this game. Replays show that, indeed, Tilak has done it, and eventually AM Ghazanfar does get the wicket of Krunal Pandya.

AM Ghazanfar to Krunal Pandya, Six!SIX! Oh, my days! Krunal is down, flat on the ground, but he has dumped it into the stands. Shades of Maxwell vs Afghanistan in the 2023 World Cup. Full and around off on a lower trajectory. Krunal gets down early and picks it up beautifully, and slog-sweeps it cleanly over the deep mid-wicket fence for a biggie.

AM Ghazanfar to Krunal Pandya, No run.Short, on middle and leg, Krunal pulls off the back foot to deep square leg. He can't run due to cramps and the batters do not cross.

AM Ghazanfar to Krunal Pandya, Six!SIX! Sprinkles salt on the wounds! A lot fuller, around off. Pandya clears the front leg and smokes it over wide long on for a massive six.

AM Ghazanfar to Krunal Pandya, No run.A big miss! Short and outside off. Krunal walks across and tries to belt it down the ground but gets nowhere near the middle of it. The ball loops up to deep mid-wicket, where Naman and Tilak converge from either side. Dhir gets to it first and takes the catch to his right, but his momentum is carrying him towards the rope. He tries to flick the ball back into the playing area, but Varma does not attempt to take the catch, believing that Dhir had touched the ropes. Instead of releasing the throw, Tilak got into a bit of an argument with Dhir, but thankfully for MI, the batters did not run.

What's happened here? First of all, did Naman Dhir flick the ball before his leg landed over the ropes? The third umpire is having a look. Tilak Varma didn't go for the catch as he felt that it was a six, but actually it wasn't. No six, no catch and no run taken either. Bizarre stuff.

AM Ghazanfar to Krunal Pandya, No run.Oh, prodigious turn. Spins in from outside off, on a length. Krunal does not read the carrom ball, but manages to keep it out to the off side.

Time for Jasprit Bumrah? MI only have one over of Bumrah left and the other two frontline seamers are now bowled out as well, which means Suryakumar Yadav will have to find a couple of overs from elsewhere. There's another slight halt in play as Krunal Pandya continues to struggle with his fitness. The 12th man is out and Pandya has a bit of nutrition intake and is ready to go again. Also, it will be AM Ghazanfar to bowl the 18th over.

Deepak Chahar to Krunal Pandya, 1 run.Closes out a superb over! Off-pace delivery, short and over off. Krunal pulls it to deep mid-wicket for only a run. Just 6 runs from Chahar's last. He is done with his spell, with figures reading 4-0-33-2.

Deepak Chahar to Romario Shepherd, 1 run.Takes pace off, at 119.5 kph, this is dug in short, around off. Romario Shepherd slices the ball on the pull shot, and it goes on a couple of bounces to deep mid-wicket for a single.

Deepak Chahar to Krunal Pandya, 1 run.In-between length, angling outside off. Krunal waits back and punches it along the ground to long off for just a single.

Deepak Chahar to Romario Shepherd, 1 run.Slightly shorter, outside off. Shepherd knocks it off the back foot, through the cover-point gap for an easy single.

Deepak Chahar to Krunal Pandya, 1 run.Half-tracker, around off, Pandya waits for the off-cutter to arrive and swats it on the bounce to the left of long on for a single.

Krunal Pandya has taken a blow to the body and is down on the ground with some pain. As he falls down, he seems to have pulled his hamstring as well, and the physio is out to have a look. A bit of a wait, but thankfully, Pandya is good to go again.

Game stopped due to Play HaltedGame stopped due to : Play Halted

Deepak Chahar to Krunal Pandya, No run.Ouch! That must have hurt. A deceptive slower ball, on a hard length, stays slightly low, on the leg stump line. Krunal Pandya is early into the pull shot and is well beaten before being hit on the stomach. Krunal is looking uncomfortable and is down on the ground.

Deepak Chahar to Krunal Pandya, Wide!WIDE! Not an ideal start. Slower bumper, at just 116.4 kph, over the head. Krunal walks forward, but decides to leave. Wide given for height.

Wow, what a contest we are having in Raipur. MI still believe. Romario Shepherd is the new batter in at 8. Deepak Chahar (3-0-27-2) to bowl out.

Corbin Bosch to Tim David, OUT! c Ryan Rickelton b Corbin Bosch.OUT! CAUGHT BEHIND! Corbin Bosch goes bang, bang. A golden duck for Tim David. Cross-seam ball, bowled on a hard length, over middle. David swivels as he tries to pull it off the front foot, but the ball comes on slower than he expected. It grazes the toe end of the blade and goes behind, where the keeper, Ryan Rickelton snaffles it with ease. Bosch is done for the night, finishing with figures of 4-1-26-4. RCB need 36 runs from 24 balls.

Bosch has the last laugh. This game refuses to settle down in a straight line. With RCB needing 36 runs from 25 balls, Tim David walks to the crease at number 7.

Corbin Bosch to Jitesh Sharma, OUT! c Naman Dhir b Corbin Bosch.OUT! CAUGHT! Jitesh Sharma holes out. Bosch goes into the surface again but this is wider on off. Jitesh Sharma advances down the track again and is made to reach out as he looks to flay it over point. Ends up slicing it towards deep point, where Naman Dhir settles under it and makes no mistake. A good little hand from Jitesh comes to an end.

Corbin Bosch to Jitesh Sharma, Six!SIX! Nicely done! Bosch bangs it in short, over off and middle. Sharma walks inside the line of the ball and uses the pace to hook it over the long leg fence for a six.

Corbin Bosch to Krunal Pandya, 1 run.Falls well short! This is on middle. Pandya attempts the pull but the ball is not all that short. He mistimes it aerially and the ball lands well in front of Raj Bawa at deep square leg. Just a single.

Corbin Bosch to Krunal Pandya, No run.Served on a back of a length at 142.8 kph, on off. Krunal Pandya shimmies down the track and flat bats it to mid off.

Corbin Bosch to Krunal Pandya, Six!SIX! Krunal made it look so easy. Bosch hits the back of a length, on middle. Pandya picks up the length quickly and swings across with the angle. Pummels it over mid-wicket and it goes all the way.

Last 5 overs left. RCB need 49 runs to win. Corbin Bosch (3-1-13-2) is back on, replacing Raj Bawa.

Jasprit Bumrah to Krunal Pandya, 1 run.Off-cutter, on a back of a length, on off. Krunal runs it down to deep third to pick up a single.

Jasprit Bumrah to Krunal Pandya, 2 runs.FIFTY FOR KRUNAL! From 32 balls. An outstanding knock from the all-rounder on a challenging surface. Time and again, he has shown his value to this RCB outfit, whether it be with the bat or the ball. Full and angled in on the off stump. Pandya has a heave across the line. It comes off the inner half and goes wide of deep mid-wicket for a couple of runs.

Jasprit Bumrah to Krunal Pandya, No run.Attacking the front pad with a good-length ball. Krunal tugs it to mid-wicket.

Jasprit Bumrah to Krunal Pandya, No run.From around the wicket for the left-hander. Bumrah spots Krunal backing away and he follows him with a length delivery. Pandya does not pick the slower one and is slightly early into the stroke. Chips it away from Bumrah to his right. Sharma was keen for a single but was sent back.

Jasprit Bumrah to Jitesh Sharma, 1 run.Fuller now, around off. Jitesh knocks it back past the bowler with a straight bat. It goes to the right of mid off and the batters cross over for one.

Jasprit Bumrah to Jitesh Sharma, Four!FOUR! Top shot! Fractionally short and equally wide on off. Jitesh presses back and gets on top of the bounce. He punches it with a high elbow and the ball races past cover for a four.

STRATEGIC BREAK! Well, this is getting more and more interesting now. Unfortunately for MI, Raj couldn't back up a fantastic wicket-maiden bowled by Bosch. But you can't blame the youngster, as he hasn't bowled much in these situations in the IPL. SKY has trusted his pacers so far, with Jacks and Ghazanfar held back after bowling two overs each. In fact, MI have not even introduced Raghu Sharma into the attack as yet. So, a lot of tough decisions have to be made from Suryakumar Yadav. On the other hand, Krunal Pandya is playing a gem of a knock for his team, inching close to his fifty. And with two big hitters yet to come next, they would like to keep the tempo up with 57 needed off 36 balls. Alright, it's time for Jasprit Bumrah (2-0-10-0) now. Can he produce a wicket for his side here? Let's see...

Raj Bawa to Krunal Pandya, 2 runs.At 132 kph, on middle and leg, on a good length. Krunal Pandya brings his bat out in front and whips it past mid-wicket. Tilak Varma sprints to his left at long on and gets low to make the stop. He lays half a hand on it and the ball threatens to trickle behind into the fence, but Tilak recovers to prevent the boundary and keeps it down to two runs. Just the over RCB needed after the wicket maiden from Corbin Bosch. 16 runs off it.

Raj Bawa to Krunal Pandya, Wide!Wide! From around the wicket, an off-cutter, dug in short but it goes beyond the tramline on off. Krunal offers no shot.

Raj Bawa to Krunal Pandya, Wide!Wide! A proper bumper this time by Bawa but this is too high. Pandya lets it go.

Raj Bawa to Krunal Pandya, Four!FOUR! Cracked away! Pace off and into the surface, over middle. Krunal stands tall and plays the pull off the front foot. Hits it all along the ground to the right of deep square leg for a boundary. 12 runs off the over with a ball to go.

Raj Bawa to Jitesh Sharma, 1 run.Drags the length back and keeps it around the off pole. Jitesh dabs it behind point and turns the strike over.

Raj Bawa to Jitesh Sharma, Six!SIX! Jitesh Sharma has had enough of ball watching. Fuller and at the sticks. Jitesh backs away to give himself room and swings through the line with mid off inside the circle. He tonks it way over the fence for a biggie. The 100 is up for RCB.

Raj Bawa to Jitesh Sharma, No run.Six balls without a run for Jitesh. He will be starting to feel the pressure. Angled in on a back of a length, on middle. Sharma stabs it down on the strip.

Raj Bawa to Krunal Pandya, 1 run.Down leg, on a short of a length. Pandya stays inside the line and shovels it wide of deep fine leg. Jasprit Bumrah moves to his right to cut it off. There is a slight fumble, but that does not cost MI an extra run. Just a single.

That was a sensational over from Bosch. MI are tightening the screws now. The asking rate is nearly 10.5. Raj Bawa (1-0-8-0) is back on.

Corbin Bosch to Jitesh Sharma, No run.Wow! Superb stuff from Corbin Bosch. A wicket maiden. Bosch puts in a bit of effort behind this one. On a nagging length, on middle. Jitesh is taken aback as the ball kicks up but manages to fend it off. RCB need 73 runs off 42 balls.

Corbin Bosch to Jitesh Sharma, No run.Bashes the hard length, over off. Jitesh stays back to keep it out.

Another massive moment in the game as Bethell falls. Jitesh Sharma is the next batter in at number 6. He has been short of runs this season and this is a huge opportunity for him to get the job done for his side.

Corbin Bosch to Jacob Bethell, OUT! c Tilak Varma b Corbin Bosch.OUT! CAUGHT! Jacob Bethell could not have picked out the fielder in the deep any better. Corbin Bosch strikes on his return to the attack. This is a length ball, angled into the pads. Bethell plays a wristy flick and has no intention of keeping it on the ground. He fails to pick the gap and hits it straight down the throat of Tilak Varma at deep square leg. Tilak seems to have lost the ball in the lights for a moment, but managed to hold on close to his chest eventually. The 55-run stand has been broken. RCB are 94/4, needing 73 runs from 47 balls.

RCB need 73 runs from 48 balls. MI are in desperate need of a wicket here to get back into the game. Corbin Bosch (1-0-13-1) is back on. He replaces Raj Bawa.

AM Ghazanfar to Jacob Bethell, 1 run.Another single to end the over, 12 off it. Bowled from around the wicket and angled down leg. Jacob Bethell sits down and sweeps it down to deep backward square leg for a run.

AM Ghazanfar to Krunal Pandya, 1 run.Dragged length around off, stays low as well and Pandya pulls it away to deep mid-wicket for a run.

AM Ghazanfar to Krunal Pandya, Six!SIX! Swung away over the ropes. Tossed up, much fuller on middle and leg, Krunal Pandya takes a step forward, and slog sweeps it over deep mid-wicket for a biggie. This brings up the 50-run stand between Krunal and Bethell.

AM Ghazanfar to Krunal Pandya, 2 runs.Slightly quicker through the air, on a length and on leg. Pandya lunges ahead and clips it wide of deep mid-wicket for a single. The batters go for the second run as well and make it as the throw at the bowler's end is just wide. Had that hit, Behell might have been in trouble.

Raj Bawa to Krunal Pandya, 1 run.Short of a length, angled across the batter. Pandya lets the ball come on and angles it towards backward point for a quick single. 85 needed now off 54 balls.

AM Ghazanfar to Jacob Bethell, 1 run.Fullish length outside off, hit away to the right of the deep point fielder for a single. 93 needed from 60 balls.

AM Ghazanfar to Krunal Pandya, 1 run.AM Ghazanfar pulls the length back smartly and angles it in from outside off. Krunal Pandya gets a stride in and looks to play a late dab but the ball slides on and brushes the pads before rolling down to short third. KP looks for the run but is sent back as an appeal for LBW is turned down. There is also a shy at the keeper's end as Pandya scampers back but it is wide and ends up resulting in an overthrow. There is a review taken for LBW, but the impact is outside the line of the off stump. Not Out!

Review time. Ryan Rickelton thinks it is pad first, but he feels the impact could be outside the line. After a discussion, Suryakumar Yadav takes the review. The replays confirm it is pad first, but the impact is indeed outside the line. NOT OUT!

AM Ghazanfar to Krunal Pandya, Four!FOUR! Too full again, and this time, Krunal Pandya puts it away. Tossed up on off, Pandya gives it a real thump as he swats it dead straight down the ground for a boundary.
