2 OUT! TAKEN! Harshit Rana strikes back and it is the slower ball that has done the trick for him! Faf du Plessis tries the scoop again but it does not come off this time! Rana takes pace off and serves it on a good length, on off, Faf du Plessis moves to the off side and exposes all his stumps to scoop it over short fine leg. There is no pace for du Plessis to work with and it lobs tamely towards Mitchell Starc at short fine leg who does the rest. Rana draws first blood for Kolkata and he is pumped. 17/1

Narine sees the batter make room and lands it short and away from the reach of the batter, Glenn Maxwell is made to reach out and ends up slicing it in the air towards deep backward point. Rinku Singh covers good ground to his left and completes the catch near his waist. Kolkata breathe a sigh of relief. 124/3

| Anuj Rawat Wk | 3 | 3 | 0 | 0 | 100 |

17.3 OUT! EDGED AND GONE! It is the slower ball that has done the trick for the second time on the night for Harshit Rana. Stays over the wicket and rolls his fingers over the ball as he goes full and angles it across, outside off, Anuj Rawat shuffles across and looks to go back over the bowler's head. He is through his shot early and gets an outside edge that goes through to Phil Salt behind the wicket who does the rest by diving in front. 151/5

Goes into the deck and bowls it with pace, on middle, Phil Salt tries to take it on and nails the pull. The ball comes right off the screws but does not get the desired elevation.

6.3 OUT! BOWLED'EM! A much-needed wicket for Dagar and Bengaluru! The crowd erupts and Dagar is delighted. Bowls it full and quick at the stumps. Narine is in two minds on how to play at this.

15.1 OUT! TAKEN! Venkatesh Iyer cannot quite see his side through! Dayal comes back into the attack and begins from over the wicket. Takes pace off and bowls it on a good length, outside off, Venkatesh Iyer goes for a swipe across the line and has to drag it from outside off. Gets this one off the toe-end of the bat and it goes straight to deep mid-wicket where Virat Kohli makes no mistake. End of a fine knock from the southpaw and he gets patted on the back by a couple of Bengaluru players on his way to the dugout. 167/3
