Dinesh Karthik was in tremendous form as he slammed an unbeaten 53 of just 23 balls to take Royal Challengers Bengaluru to a big total of 196/8 despite Jasprit Bumrah taking five wickets. Karthik made a strong case for his T20 World Cup selection with a knock that had four sixes and five boundaries.
Karthik took a particular liking to the Mumbai Indians fast bowler as he scored 19 runs in the final over of the RCB innings. The veteran cricketer ended up hitting four boundaries in the over with a variety of shots on display. Karthik was also the only batter to hit the in-form Bumrah for a maximum.
However, Karthik's efforts were in vain as Mumbai Indians rode tremendous batting performances to chase down the target quite easily. Ishan Kishan and Rohit Sharma provided the perfect start to the run chase while Suryakumar Yadav provided the final flourish with a 19-ball-52.
