Inn Break
So that is all from this game! However, it is not end of the cricketing action tonight. There is another game coming your way and it is a clash between Kolkata and Delhi. Do join us for that in a bit as there is not a lot of time to go for the game to begin. Till then, take care and goodbye!
Yuzvendra Chahal is named the Man of the Match for his 3/24 from 4 overs.
Rajasthan did not have enough on the board! They were at least 20 runs short. Their bowlers to be honest can't be blamed. Archer and Gopal were really good. Tewatia too did decently. Curran and Unadkat were not at their best. Defending moderate totals you need a combined effort from the bowlers but that was not to be. Also, the fielding was not upto the mark. They did not look sharp. Overall it is a performance Rajasthan will not be pleased with.
How good was that chase from Bangalore! Yes, the total was not a huge one but we have seen totals around the 160-run mark be tricky in this edition but this was done with ease. They did lose Finch early but then Padikkal and Kohli showed their class, they played aggressively in the Powerplay and then cleverly nudged it around, never let the pressure build and always got a boundary or two when needed. The two added a 99-run stand with both scoring half tons. Padikkal did not stay there till the end but he did his job along with the skipper. De Villiers then came in and ensured there were no more wickets as Bangalore win their second game in a row.

Jaydev Unadkat To Virat Kohli
Just short and they have taken three! What stamina shown by Virat here. Lovely from the Bangalore skipper. He comes down the track and it is a length ball. It is chipped towards long off who runs in but the ball lands short. He manages to push it away from him. They take two. Smith from covers goes after the ball and it ends up in three runs.

Tom Curran To Virat Kohli
FOUR! In the gap and it is another boundary! Runs needed in single digits now. Shorter and on the body, Kohli whips it behind square on the leg side and it goes away for another boundary. Third in the over and that is probably the stroke which seals the deal for the batting side.
17.5

Tom Curran To Virat Kohli
Four! Up and over! 12 needed now in 13 balls. Shorter and outside off, it is the slower one but not a good ball with third man up. Kohli plays the upper cut. It goes over that fielder and for a boundary.

DRINKS! Bangalore have lost the wicket of Padikkal just before the final break. They have done well throughout the chase and they would want Kohli to stay till the end. On the other hand, Rajasthan need more wickets to make a comeback in this match. AB de Villiers is the new batsman in.

Tewatia looks to take it above his head but the ball bursts through and goes towards the long off fence. The fielder there runs to his right, dives and pushes it back in. Two taken.

A huge, huge shout, especially from the bowler but nothing! They do not review too. It is the slider on middle, Kohli looks to guide it on the off side but there are two sounds. Not sure if it is pad or bat or glove. Replays show that it is glove first.

DRINKS! A fine start for Bangalore in the run chase! They lost Finch early but the youngster, Padikkal, has motored to 38 in quick time. He has skipper Kohli for the company and the duo are going along nicely. Bangalore would hope that these two keep doing what they are doing as long as they can. Rajasthan, on the other hand, need to strike quickly if they are to have any chance in the game. If these two bat another 5-odd overs, thinks might become really difficult for them. They need someone to raise their hand and deliver for them. Will that happen? We will soon find out.

Shreyas Gopal To Aaron Finch OUT!
OUT! LBW! Excellent review from Gopal. He forced his skipper to go for it. And that has got them the breakthrough. A full ball around off and middle, Finch premediates and goes for the paddle sweep but he misses to get hit on the pad. They all go up in appeal but it has been turned down by the umpire. Gopal is confident. He pleads his skipper to go for it and Smith obliges. Time for the replays! No bat involved and hitting the wickets. Superb review from Gopal. A decent start from Bangalore but it has been thumped by this wicket.
DRS TIME! An appeal for lbw! Aaron Finch is the man in question. Rajasthan go for a review.

Jaydev Unadkat To Devdutt Padikkal
A couple now! Smart batting as well. Change of pace from Unadkat. It is on a good length and just outside off, Padikkal guides it through short third man and scampers back for a couple.

Jaydev Unadkat To Devdutt Padikkal
SIX! Welcome into the attack, says Padikkal. This lad can bat and smoke them out of the park. A fuller ball on the pads of Padikkal, he just whips it over deep square leg for a massive biggie. Only the second ball that he is facing. Talk about confidence.
Who will partner Jofra Archer from the other end? It will be Jaydev Unadkat to share the ball with Archer.

Swing and a miss! Three dots and Finch is itchy! Goes for a mighty heave on the leg side to this length ball but fails to connect.

Jofra Archer To Aaron Finch
Mild appeal for LBW but it is turned down. That looked to be going down. Good length ball angled in, Finch tries to work it on the leg side but misses to get hit high on the pads. They appeal but it dies down quickly.
