17.4
Chameera to Krunal Pandya, 1 run, and RCB get a single now. They don't want to take this into the final over. Was an excellent yorker, on the pads, clipped down to deep square for a single. 18 off 14 needed
17.2
Chameera to Krunal Pandya, 1 run, and a single now. 20 needed off 16 balls now. Very full, timed superbly down to deep cover. Even singles and that odd boundary will do it for RCB from here on
17.1
4
Chameera to Krunal Pandya, FOUR, and four. Very full, the man at mid-off tried to go for it but the ball goes past Stubbs at mid-off. Was in the slot and Krunal Pandya slapped it hard and flat. The fielder tried to slide in but failed to get there
17.1
Chameera to Krunal Pandya, wide, very full, wide, outside off, Krunal Pandya throws his bat at it and misses. That was inside the tramline I feel. Chameera can't bowl loose deliveries from here on. But RCB reviewed it. And it was a wide. Only just...
16.6
Mukesh Kumar to Krunal Pandya, 1 run, low full toss, angling in, heaved away down to deep mid for a single. 12 runs. Excellent over for RCB again. 26 off 18 balls now

4
Mukesh Kumar to Krunal Pandya, FOUR, 11 off the over so far. Fuller ball, Krunal Pandya backs away and squeezes the ball wide of the man at point. Krunal Pandya gives himself a fist pump. That man at point had just come in, wasn't a bad ball but Krunal Pandya backed away to time and place it well
16.4
4
Mukesh Kumar to Krunal Pandya, FOUR, and four. Was a yorker on the pads, heaved down to deep mid for a four. Was looking to bluff the batter I guess but Krunal Pandya did well to get bat down on it and play it into the gap
16.3
Mukesh Kumar to Krunal Pandya, 2 runs, very full, Krunal Pandya looks to heave it and gets it over cover. Axar ran back, tried to stretch his arm at it but the ball popped over. They get a double. Pandya's luck continues to be on his side
15.6
Mitchell Starc to Krunal Pandya, 2 runs, Porel drops it. Pandya gets a chance and so do RCB. Porel dropped the catch, kept thinking about it and ignored the cries of Starc who wanted a throw at the bowler's end. The throw came when it was a little late as Kohli hared back for the brace. Then Starc tried to palm the ball on to the sticks and missed. They wanted a run on the overthrow but Kohli had overrun the second one. Was banged in short, Krunal Pandya was disconcerted while playing the pull. Was a top-edge and carried to the man at deep mid who came charging in. The ball popped out in the end
15.2
Mitchell Starc to Krunal Pandya, 1 run, round the wicket to Pandya. Very full, driven down to cover for a single. Mitchell Starc attacked the sticks
14.6
F
Axar to Krunal Pandya, FOUR, and the four helps. They needed it. Was on the pads, Krunal Pandya delays his sweep and hits it wide of the man at deep backward square for a four. Played it to the right of the man at deep backward square. Fifty for Krunal Pandya! He has had a good season with the ball but now has contributed with the bat as well. The chips were down. The pressure was alarming. But senior Pandya has handled the situation really well
14.3
Axar to Krunal Pandya, 1 run, quicker one on the sticks, worked down to long-on for a single

12.4
6
Mukesh Kumar to Krunal Pandya, SIX, and six more. Krunal coming into his elements now. Mukesh needs to bowl better channels. Was a length delivery outside off and Krunal Pandya stays back to loft it over long-off. Allowed the batter the leverage to get under it and Krunal stayed his crease to flex all his muscles. Kohli liked it and RCB fans find their voices
12.3
6
Mukesh Kumar to Krunal Pandya, SIX, and vital hit! Much needed indeed. Krunal eases the pressure a little. Was a short ball, down leg, Krunal Pandya got on top of the bounce and pulled it over fine leg. Not a great ball and was put away with elan. RCB don't mind it
12.2
Mukesh Kumar to Krunal Pandya, no run, Pandya playing a few dots which wouldn't please the dug-out. The rate is creeping up. Was unsure of the scoop as that was well outside off and stabbed it down to point in the end. No chance for a single as well
11.6
Kuldeep Yadav to Krunal Pandya, no run, tossed up delivery, well outside off, Krunal Pandya inside edges the ball down on to the pads. The ball dribbled down into the off-side after hitting the pads. Kuldeep has kept it tight but I guess DC would have loved a couple of wickets

7.4
Kuldeep Yadav to Krunal Pandya, no run, flatter one, outside off, skidded on, Krunal Pandya looked to punch it and missed the line. Kuldeep was too confident of taking a review but that has been lost. Poor call to take the review. The impact always looked it was outside the line of the sticks

6.4

6.4
4
Vipraj Nigam to Krunal Pandya, no ball, FOUR, that was clubbed down the ground. No-ball as well. That was tossed up, Krunal Pandya danced down and hit it over the bowler's head. Just landed short. But the bowler has trespassed the crease. Free-hit coming up. Really poor from the spinner
5.6
Mitchell Starc to Krunal Pandya, no run, oh, sharp again from Mitchell Starc! A bouncer outside off, Krunal Pandya sways away to evade it and it flies through to Rahul. Good second over from Mitchell Starc, only 5 off it
5.5
Mitchell Starc to Krunal Pandya, no run, an appeal for caught behind particualrly from Rahul but nothing much from the others! A back of a length ball around off, seamed away a touch, Krunal Pandya is stuck on the crease as he tries to work it across but gets beaten on the outside edge. Axar has a chat with Rahul and rightly decides against the review

5.3
