Bangalore had won the toss and had chosen to bat.

The start was not great for the team as Chris Gayle was dismissed early. The Jamaican scored just 1. (BCCI image)

Tillakaratne Dilshan - the other opener - was hardly effective either. The Sri Lankan scored 5 off 9 before being dismissed by Ishant Sharma. (BCCI image)

Skipper Virat Kohli took control of the side and hit a confident 46 off 44 which was more symbolic of his responsible attitude than his aggressive nature. (BCCI image)

Moises Henriques gave good support to Kohli and scored 44 off 40. (BCCI image)

Hyderabad bowlers kept to their task and soon broke through once again. While Kohli fell to Ashish Reddy, Henriques fell to Sharma. (BCCI image)

Ishant Sharma claimed one more to finish the innings with three against his name.

Bangalore, much like Hyderabad bowlers, kept taking wickets and though there were some worthy knocks, kept the pressure up. (BCCI image)

In the Super Over, Cameron White powered Hyderabad to 20 - a total which was too much for even Gayle who struck a six for Bangalore though his side lost. (BCCI image)
