Is Reddy stumped out? Regardless, that's an exceptional glovework by Firdous behind the stumps. The on-field umpires have sent it upstairs for a review. The ball is passing close to the inside edge, so the TV umpire requests the UltraEdge first. The technology shows a flat line. Now, onto the stumping check. Reddy's back leg momentarily gets dragged out of the crease as she is forced to push in front to play the shot. But she is quick to slide it back in before Rahila dislodges the bails. NOT OUT loads on the giant screen.

STRATEGIC BREAK. RCB are under tremendous pressure, but these two have somewhat arrested the slide with a budding 30-run partnership. The asking rate has shot up past 12, and Mumbai will just try to go for the kill by breaking this alliance as quickly as possible. But as long as Richa and Nadine are in the middle, Bengaluru's hopes (flickering) are still alive, as their capabilities need no introduction to hit big. And there she is. Bowler number six for MI. Amelia Kerr is brought into the attack. She replaces Vaishnavi Sharma.
