KKR vs RCB Live Cricket Score

0.5 OUT! EDGED AND GONE! Quinton de Kock is gone this time! Suyash Sharma will be the most relieved man in all of Kolkata. The nip-backer from Josh Hazlewood, on a short of a good length, Quinton de Kock stays on the back foot and shapes up to punch it away. This comes back in off the deck to cramp QDK for room. The ball grazes the inside edge and it is a good diving grab by the keeper Jitesh Sharma low to his right. Quinton de Kock departs on 4 (5). An early blow to KKR. 4/1

10 OUT! EDGED AND CAUGHT BEHIND! Finally, RCB get a breakthrough! Rasikh is charged up and so are all the players of RCB. Rasikh stays around the stumps and pitches it on the good length, just around off. It just bounces a bit more off the surface as Sunil Narine tries to clear the in-field on the off side, but due to that excessive bounce, the ball gets heavy on the batter and the outside edge is found. It lobs straight into the safe gloves of Jitesh Sharma who completes a regulation catch behind the wickets. A highly entertaining inning from Sunil Narine comes to an end, as he departs for 44 (26). KKR are 107/2. 107/2

10.3 OUT! TAKEN! Krunal Pandya strikes on his return to the attack! A double whammy for RCB. A wonderful innings comes to an end from the KKR skipper. Krunal spears it into the right-hander from around the wicket, on a nagging length, Rahane crouches a bit to get under the ball and pull it away. The ball gets a bit too close to him and he neither gets the distance nor the elevation. Hits it flat and straight down the throat of Rasikh Salam at deep backward square leg who makes no mistake. Rahane falls for 56 (31). The Knight Riders are now 109/3. 109/3

12.1 OUT! DRAGGED ON! Wickets off successive overs for Krunal Pandya and he is thrilled to bits! Pushes it through, flat and short, on off, Iyer is caught in the crease and is a bit late on the shot. Looks to deal with it off the back foot but the ball catches the inside edge and crashes into the stumps. Iyer goes for 6 (7) and KKR have now slipped to 125/4 from 107/1. 125/4

18.5 OUT! CAUGHT BEHIND! Yash Dayal gets his first wicket and it makes a better over, much better for him. Takes the pace off from the leather, does Yash Dayal, on a good length, angling across off, with a bit of an extra bounce off the surface. Angkrish Raghuvanshi weighs on the back foot to pull over the leg side but is through his shot marginally early and the outside edge is found. The ball carries to the keeper and Jitesh Sharma takes a safe catch. 168/7

15 OUT! CLEANED HIM UP! Krunal Pandya caps off an impressive bowling effort with a wicket! Continues to keep the stumps in play and fires it in, flat and short, on middle, Rinku Singh swivels for the pull but is beaten for pace. The ball skids through and sneaks under the bat to clatter into the top of the off stump. Rinku falls for 12 (10). From 107/1, KKR are now 145/5. Krunal finishes with figures of 4-0-29-3. 145/5

15.4 OUT! OUTFOXED, OUTCLASSED! A big, big wicket for RCB as Suyash Sharma has the last laugh! Sharma dishes out a deceptive googly, and pitches it outside off, on a fuller length. Andre Russell sits down to slog it aerially in the leg side, but does not find enough room to access his shot. The ball lands and sharply turns back into the batter, beats Dre Russ who is through his shot, and sneaks through between the bat and pad, and crashes into the wickets. KKR have now slipped down to 150/6 from 107/1 as Andre Russell perishes without any impact on 4 (3). 150/6

19.5 OUT! HIGH UP IN THE AIR, AND TAKEN! This has been an exceptional exhibition of bowling display from the experienced Aussie! Josh Hazlewood sticks to his plan to bowl on a hard length. Hits the deck hard, on top of the stumps, skidding quickly and getting heavy on the right-hander. Harshit weighs on the back foot and shapes up to pull, but top edges it in the night sky. The ball swirls behind the wickets and swirls while descending. Jitesh Sharma calls for his catch, runs forward and takes a fine catch. 173/8

8.3 OUT! CAUGHT! Varun Chakaravarthy provides KKR with a much-needed breakthrough! Salt has done his job though. A fine hand of 56 runs from 31 balls comes to an end. Varun cleverly keeps it away from the batter's arc and gives the ball air, Salt swings with a cross bat to go down the ground. Only manages to get a thickish outside edge that balloons towards short third. Spencer Johnson makes no mistake there as he takes it with a slide and tumble to his left. The 95-run opening stand is broken. RCB need 80 runs from 69 balls. 95/1

11.4 OUT! IN THE AIR AND TAKEN! A timely wicket for KKR as the Impact Player of RCB, goes without much of an impact. Narine dishes a fuller-length delivery, on the stumps, Devdutt Padikkal charges down the track to clear the deep mid-wicket fence, but cannot quite get his bat properly under the ball and goes through the shot. Hits it flat in the air, off the toe end of the bat and finds Ramandeep Singh at deep mid-wicket, who doesn't have to move an inch to snaffle the catch. 118/2

15.3 OUT! TAKEN! Rajat Patidar holes out in a bid to get the game done quickly! This is the leg-cutter from Arora, on a length, at the stumps, Rajat Patidar swings across the line. Gets it off the inner half of the bat and hits it straight down the throat of deep mid-wicket where Rinku Singh takes a safe catch around his waist. Rajat goes for a quickfire 34 off 16 balls with RCB 13 runs away from a win on the opening night. 162/3
