Right, we're done with this! Bangalore get important two points with their 3rd 10-wicket win in the League, and the NRR will surely come into play later on, which is also a big boost. They'll surely be happy and take the momentum from this. Punjab slip to 5th place and have lost yet another game at home. That makes it 5 losses out of their last 6. They need to get their act together, and fast. Anyway, the action continues as on 15th May, Kolkata host Rajasthan at Eden Gardens at 2000 local (1430 GMT). Another crucial encounter in the context of the season. Do join in for that. See you then, folks!
Umesh Yadav is declared as the Man of the Match. He scalped 3 wickets in his 4-over spell, which included the likes of Chris Gayle and KL Rahul.
A poor performance from Punjab. Plain and simple. The batsmen heavily let them down. If your highest scorer has just 26, then that should say everything right there. In an attempt to score 200, you often end up less than 100, and that's what happened here. No sensibility was shown from the Punjab batsmen and it proved to be their undoing. The bowlers were left with no chance. Their performance tonight becomes irrelevant. A lot to ponder for Ravichandran Ashwin and his side.
An emphatic and a much-needed victory for Bangalore. They had to win, a clinical performance was needed and it came, in all departments. Skipper Kohli would be quite pleased at this. First, they did the job with the ball, where Umesh Yadav was the spearhead picking up 3 wickets. And then, with a paltry target of 89 to chase, the two openers, Kohli and Parthiv, finished things off with absolute ease. Well inside 9 overs. This will do a world of good to their confidence and significantly better their NRR.

Ankit Rajpoot To Virat Kohli
FOUR! It's a boundary, but no half century for Virat Kohli. Falls just short of it. Short ball, he swings hard and gets a big top edge over the keeper's head, to the fence behind. BANGALORE WIN BY 10 WICKETS!

nb
Ankit Rajpoot To Virat Kohli
No ball! The match could have been over, but Kohli doesn't take the extra run. Wants to try and get to his fifty. He hits the high full toss down to long off where Andrew Tye drops the catch. Free Hit coming up...
Ankit Rajpoot brought on. Probably the last over of the match.

Andrew Tye To Virat Kohli
Single to end the over. Kohli pushes it to long on and retains strike. 2 runs to win, but he's on 44. A biggie and he gets to fifty. Will he do it?

Andrew Tye To Parthiv Patel
Shortish in length, pulled behind square leg for one.

Andrew Tye To Parthiv Patel
FOUR! Beautiful. Back of a length outside off, Parthiv plays the ramp shot over the vacant slip cordon. Plays it quite fine, it runs away to the fence.

Andrew Tye To Parthiv Patel
Cleverly takes the pace off this one, Parthiv doesn't pick it up and swings across the line way too early. Misses it altogether.

Andrew Tye To Virat Kohli
Shortish in length, well outside off, slapped to long off by walking out of the crease. Comfortable run earned.

Andrew Tye To Parthiv Patel
Easily run down to third man. It's on a length, PP opens the face and takes a single in that area.
Strategic break.

Marcus Stoinis To Virat Kohli
FOUR! Shot! Hit with authority. Back of a length, Kohli plays a front foot pull shot. Muscles it over mid-wicket, leaving the man in the deep with no chance. Superb. Bangalore are just 10 runs away from a handsome win.
6.5
lb
Marcus Stoinis To Parthiv Patel
Skidding off the deck, touch fuller on middle and leg, catches Patel on the pads as he misses his flick. It pitched outside leg, so the umpire isn't interested. A leg bye taken as the ball rolls over on the off side.

Marcus Stoinis To Parthiv Patel
Good effort from Agarwal out in the deep. Was always a difficult chance. Parthiv swivels and lifts this over mid-wicket. Mayank out in the deep, runs in and dives forward to get his hands to it. Just gets his fingertips on it, but it slips through. A couple added to the scoreboard.

Marcus Stoinis To Virat Kohli
Quite full on off, pushed to long on for a run.

Marcus Stoinis To Virat Kohli
FOUR! Pure timing, that. Didn't have to use any kind of force at all. Short and wide outside off, Kohli steers this past point with an angled bat. Nobody out there in the deep, so it'll be a boundary.

Marcus Stoinis To Parthiv Patel
Short of a good length on middle and off, swung down the ground to long on for a single.
Marcus Stoinis comes on to have a go with the ball.

Andrew Tye To Virat Kohli
SIX! Talk about elegance, this man is on top of it! In the arc for the skipper. With a beautiful bat extension, he lifts it over wide mid off. It is going, going and hits the advertising boards. A sublime strike from Kohli. A brilliant Powerplay for Bangalore, the game is already done and dusted.

Andrew Tye To Virat Kohli
FOUR! There is still space for finesse in this dynamic format of the game! Back of a length ball outside off, Kohli glides it nicely past the left side of the diving short third man fielder.

Andrew Tye To Virat Kohli
Well-directed short ball around middle and leg, Kohli takes evasive action. Looks towards the square leg umpire but doesn't get any response. The height was alright there.

Fullish delivery on middle and leg, Patel goes for a whip but mistimes it through mid-wicket. A single taken.

Mohit Sharma To Parthiv Patel
FOUR! 15 off the over. From the way things are going, this will be over before the halfway mark. On the hips, Parthiv whips this through backward square leg, beating the dive from the fielder in the deep.

Mohit Sharma To Parthiv Patel
FOUR! An awkward shot from Parthiv, but effective all the same. Only thing that matters. Slower short ball from Mohit, Patel is early into the pull shot, but then somehow adjusts to get it away. It's past short fine leg and away to the boundary line.

Mohit Sharma To Virat Kohli
