9.4 OUT! BOWLED 'EM! The pressure was building and something had to give. Punjab have finally got the breakthrough and the skipper of Bangalore has to head back. Kohli was finding it hard to get going after the Powerplay and he falls. Around off, on a length, the ball stays a touch low after hitting the deck, Kohli looks to heave across the line but the ball sneaks underneath his blade and crashes into the off pole. Punjab will look to make inroads now and snare a couple more wickets. 68/1

| Devdutt Padikkal | 40 | 38 | 4 | 2 | 105.26 |
|
11.4 OUT! CAUGHT BEHIND! Moises Henriques is having a ball out in the middle as he gets his third. The well set Devdutt Padikkal has to take the long walk back. This is served on a length, wider outside off, Devdutt Padikkal looks to slap it away to the off side but only manages an outside edge, which is held safely by KL Rahul behind the sticks. Bangalore are losing their way and they need a steady partnership now. 73/3

9.5 OUT! TAKEN! Two-in-two for Moises Henriques and Punjab have taken two very quickly. A golden duck for Dan Christian and the plan to send him up the order fails miserably. Outside off, on a length, there is width to play with and Christian decides to take it on. Slaps it, but more off the outer half of the blade towards backward point, where Sarfaraz Khan pouches this. Moises Henriques is on a Hat-trick too! 68/2

18.2 OUT! AB de Villiers is RUN OUT! Good piece of fielding from Sarfaraz Khan. Very full and on middle. AB de Villiers smashes it straight to covers and looks for a quick single. The fielder there, scores a direct hit at the bowler's end. The third umpire is brought in for a quick check and AB is found short of his crease. 146/4

10.5 OUT! TAKEN! There is the first one. May have come a lot later than Kohli would have liked but they now have a chance to build on this. Not sure if this was needed, having already seen a biggie in this over. KL Rahul comes down the track and Shahbaz Ahmed cleverly bowls it outside off, well outside off we should write. Rahul was made to chase for it. He does go after it but tries to hit it downtown, it goes off the top edge and it is an easy catch to Patel at short third man. 91/1

| Mayank Agarwal | 57 | 42 | 6 | 2 | 135.71 |
|
15.2 OUT! TAKEN! That is a huge, huge blow! The well-set Agarwal has been sent back to the pavilion. Mayank Agarwal was the guy Punjab would have wanted to stay there till the end but he falls at a crucial stage. Bangalore well and truly on top. Chahal weaves his magic yet again. This lands on middle, it holds its line and also straightens a touch. Agarwal looks to pull but this goes off the top edge over the keeper. Siraj at short third man takes a good catch running to his left. 114/3

| Nicholas Pooran | 3 | 7 | 0 | 0 | 42.85 |

12.5 OUT! TAKEN! That is a huge wicket and Pooran once again does not last for long in the middle! Punjab once again crumbling under pressure here. On the pads, the googly again. Pooran looks to play the slog-sweep but it goes off the top edge. Devdutt Padikkal at deep square leg takes an easy catch. 66 needed in 43 now. 99/2

16.5 OUT! TAKEN! Punjab are falling apart! A length ball, outside off. Aiden Markram swings across the line and looks to go over the long on region but does not middle it and hits it off the toe end. Dan Christian there charges in and holds onto it. Punjab 5 down now and Garton gets the big wicket. 38 more needed in 19 balls. 127/5

15.5 OUT! TIMBER! Wow, just wow! That is a tremendous delivery. An absolute beauty! Sarfaraz Khan must be wondering, why him? He is making a comeback into the side, against his former side, he would be wanting to prove a point but gets a gem. This lands around leg. Sarfaraz Khan, however, does not put in a big stride forward and tries to play it out. This lands and then spins away sharply. Goes past the outside edge and hits the off pole. Sarfaraz Khan is bamboozled. Punjab in huge trouble now. 121/4

Harshal Patel collects the ball and underarms it onto the stumps at the striker's end. Shahrukh Khan is found well short of his crease. 146/6
