BANGALORE 113-all out (19.5)
Hyderabad won by 118 runs
19.5
Sandeep Sharma to Chahal, out Caught by Hooda!! End of RCB's misery. Chahal surrenders. Short delivery, too pacy and Chahal went for the pull, launches it into the night sky as far as mid-wicket. Hooda cups it easily and that's the game in the bag for SRH. Chahal c Hooda b Sandeep Sharma 1(3)
Sandeep Sharma to Chahal, THAT'S OUT!! Caught!!
19.4
Sandeep Sharma to Siraj, 1 run, anti-climax. Nabi puts down a tough chance at long-off. Siraj miscues the pull and Nabi comes charging in from long-off, bends forward and gets both hands but fails to hold onto it
19.3
Sandeep Sharma to Siraj, no run, slower short ball from Sharma, loops over Siraj's shoulder

Yuzvendra Chahal, right handed bat, comes to the crease
18.4
Shankar to Siraj, no ball, out de Grandhomme Run Out!! Low full toss outside off, Siraj drives it to extra cover and went for the single. Grandhomme took a few yards before backing out. Both batsmen tries to return back to the crease and the throw from the fielder comes to the non striker's end. The Kiwi all-round was pretty lazy in grounding his bat and Shankar breaks the stumps to catch him short of his crease. There was also another run-out chance at the striker's end as Siraj was struggling to make his ground. Shankar lasers the throw to Bairstow, who ends up crashing into the stumps. Total confusion there. Phew! de Grandhomme run out (Bhuvneshwar/Shankar) 37(32) [4s-3 6s-2]
Shankar to Siraj, THAT'S OUT!! Run Out!!
What's happening? Comedy of errors. First things first. Shankar has overstepped but they have gone upstairs for a run-out check. So, let's follow the process. Grandhomme's bat is in the air at the non-striker's end when the stumps are broken and he has to depart. OUT!
18.4
Shankar to Siraj, wide, wafts this full ball a mile down leg, called a wide
18.3
Shankar to de Grandhomme, 1 run, Bhuvi drops a straightforward catch at extra cover but SRH won't mind match. Williamson and Co. are in all smiles at the dug-out. Hammered airly, went straight to Bhuvi, who mistimed his jump and ended up shelling it
18.2
Shankar to de Grandhomme, no run, fires it full and wide of off, Grandhomme chases and misses
18.1
Shankar to de Grandhomme, 2 runs, whipped away wide of long-on, again some hesitation in the running as they attempt the second but no harm done in the end as Siraj puts in a full-stretch dive to make his ground

17.3
Rashid Khan to de Grandhomme, out U Yadav Run Out!! 1 run completed. This is suicidal. Chipped away towards sweeper cover and Grandhomme wanted the second. Just went through without looking at his partner who was busy ball-watching. They stumbled mid-pitch and Umesh eventually paid the price. Vijay Shankar fires a clean throw to Rashid, who waits before dislodging the bails. Umesh was not even in the frame and this sums up RCB's day. U Yadav run out (Shankar/Rashid Khan) 14(9) [4s-1 6s-1]
Rashid Khan to de Grandhomme, THAT'S OUT!! Run Out!!

16.4
Shankar to U Yadav, wide, this is poor from Shankar. Wayward full delivery down leg, easy call for S Ravi on this occasion. Wided
16.3
Shankar to U Yadav, no run. Bairstow appeals but umpire S Ravi signals it a wide. The wicket-keeper has a word with his bowler and the captain, off they go for a review. Nothing wrong with the front foot and there's a certain deflection but I think it's come off the trousers. Clearly missed the bat and it's a smart review from SRH because S Ravi changes his decision about the wide and it's deemed a legitimate delivery. Full and nipping down leg, Umesh lines up for the swipe and it brushes his trousers on the way to the keeper
16.2
Shankar to U Yadav, FOUR, drilled wide of mid-off. Shankar overpitches outside off, Umesh loads up and bottom-hands the drive in the gap between extra cover and mid-off

15.5
Sandeep Sharma to U Yadav, SIX, you can't keep bowling knuckle balls every now and then. This was right in the arc for Umesh, who swings his bat and muscles it into the second tier at long-on
15.4
Sandeep Sharma to U Yadav, 2 runs, shortish, Umesh camps back to pull it over mid-wicket and picks up a couple of runs
15.3
Sandeep Sharma to U Yadav, no run, wider line from Sandeep outside off, sliced to point
15.2
Sandeep Sharma to U Yadav, no run, hurls in the knuckle ball again, Umesh had no clue as he was stomping forward and gets rapped on the pad. Half-hearted appeal but it was heading down leg
Umesh Yadav, right handed bat, comes to the crease
They have also taken time-out with the fall of that wicket.
15.1
Sandeep Sharma to Prayas Barman, out Caught by Hooda!! Sandeep Sharma foxes the young Barman with a knuckle ball but he's showed his skills with the bat. It was full and Barman was early into the shot, ends up chipping it Hooda at short mid-wicket, who takes the sitter. The spirited partnership has been broken and RCB have lost their seventh wicket.

13.6
Rashid Khan to de Grandhomme, no run, woah! How close was this to the off-stump, not by much I would say. Quicker leg-break from Rashid, pitches on off and spins rapidly past a poking forward defence from Grandhomme. The Kiwi all-rounder is very fortunate that it missed the outside edge as well as the off-stump
13.5
Rashid Khan to de Grandhomme, no run, leading edge lands short of Bhuvi at point. And there's some confusion in the running but Barman gets back in safely at the non-striker's end. Lures Grandhomme into playing an across-the-line-heave, loses shape as the ball sharply turns away and it drops a couple of inches in front of SRH's captain
13.4
Rashid Khan to Prayas Barman, 1 run, quicker just outside off, push-driven to long-off
13.3
Rashid Khan to de Grandhomme, 1 run, eased away to long-on

Rashid Khan to de Grandhomme, FOUR, that's hit uppishly and Manish Pandey at long-off tries his best diving to his left but it eludes him. Floater outside off, Grandhomme plants his front foot across and lofts it towards long-off and luckily gets away as Manish's outstretched lefthand was far enough

Nabi to Shivam Dube, out Caught by Hooda!! It's getting worse and worse for RCB. Nabi is having a dream spell as he picks up his fourth wicket. Dube had a chance to prove his mettle but he just miscues one into the hands of long-on. Nothing shot really and the nightmare continues for the visitors. It was flighted just outside off and kind of held up on the pitch, Dube was deluded by the flight as he went after it and could only succeed in finding Hooda. Shivam Dube c Hooda b Nabi 5(7) [4s-1]

Sandeep Sharma to Shivam Dube, out Moeen Ali Run Out!! Make it five down now. I'm pretty sure that Moeen is short of his ground, his bat is in the air and he already looks downcast. Well short, Moeen is OUT. Oh dear, RCB are batting and now running like senseless chickens. On a good length and just outside off, Dube clipped it towards mid-wicket and took a start, that prompted Moeen Ali to make a dash, sent back late - too late though - Nabi shies and misses, sandeep has time to break the stumps with the batsman well short.

Nabi to Parthiv Patel, out Caught by Manish Pandey!! That's a gift from Parthiv and Manish takes it with glee - a low full-toss from Nabi, Parthiv backed away as he looked to clear the infield - doesn't get hold of the shot and pops it straight to cover. Not the start RCB wanted - their little pocket dynamo falls early. Parthiv Patel c Manish Pandey b Nabi 11(8) [4s-2]

1.3
Nabi to Parthiv Patel, 1 run, pushed through flatter and quicker, Parthiv rocked back on the cut, went hard at the shot and gets a thick edge to backward point - Hetmyer called him through and he has to rush across - helped by the fact that Pathan was slow
1.2
Nabi to Parthiv Patel, FOUR, cracking shot, fraction too short from Nabi, Parthiv is quick to pick the length early, rocks back and pulls it over mid-wicket for a boundary
Aditya says: "Humdinger. That's the only word which comes to mind. RCB have the firepower though. The first step is to believe, second is to maintain the composure and don't just go for wild slogging."

Warner got lucky, but his partner wasn't. Siraj followed Warner as he backed away, induced a thick outside edge on the heave - was in the air for a long time, but dropped right in between AB - who was running back from cover and Hetmyer - running in from long-off. Shankar wanted the second run, but didn't spot that his partner wasn't coming back - stranded in the middle, he made a dash towards his end, put in the dive, but all in vain. Shankar run out (Hetmyer/Parthiv Patel) 9(3) [6s-1]

Chahal to Bairstow, out Caught by U Yadav!! There's the wicket for RCB - ends an outstanding knock from Bairstow. It's not a no-ball, so Chahal can relax, the leg-break, slower and turning away from off, Bairstow was down on his knees as he hoicked, gets a thick top-edge, it looped in the air and looked like was falling short of backward point. Umesh charged in athletically, dived forward with both hands and holds on. A standing ovation as Bairstow walks away. Bairstow c U Yadav b Chahal 114(56) [4s-12 6s-7]

Time Out: Both David Warner and Jonny Bairstow have meant business from the first ball and SRH are off to a rollicking start. RCB needs wickets and they need them ASAP to come back in this match. The 16-year-old Barman is all set to deliver his first ball. What a moment for the teenager!

Siraj to Bairstow, FOUR, don't bowl short to Bairstow. You just't can't, Siraj. It was short and was wide of off, Bairstow cuts it formidably well, beats point and cover and it races to the fence in a canter
5.2
Siraj to Bairstow, FOUR, oh Jonny, you are clearing the fields with mishits too. It was a slower one, Bairstow wanted to loft it down the ground, his timing was in a mess. But he gets just about enough bat on it to clear mid-off and it races to the fence
There was a light flashing inside one of the rooms and that was distracting Bairstow. He pulls out and Siraj will have to re-load again.

Siraj to Bairstow, no run, very full and aiming on the stumps, Bairstow punches it straight to cover

Moeen Ali to Warner, FOUR, offie or no offie. Warner is not concerned at all. He is in brilliant form and look how easily he lofts it over cover. Mind you it is one of the most difficult shots in our game. He backs away, makes room and dispatches it over cover for a boundary
