RCB 41-0 (2 ovs), D/L Target: 81 in 6 overs | Scorecard
The impressive Bhuvneshwar Kumar to bowl the second over and he would be looking to continue his good run with the ball.
He bowls a beauty first ball as Gayle gets a leading edge trying to turn it on the leg side but it flies over short thirdman for a four.
The next ball is short and this time Gayle pulls over midwicket for another four.
The pacer finally gets it right with a yorker outside the off-stump which Gayle is unable to get away.
But he comes down the track carts the next ball, which is full, over midwicket for a six.
Bhuvi bowls a low full toss on the leg stump which Gayle manages to flick
behind square on the leg side for another four.
He lofts the last ball over the off-side for a six to race to 35 from nine balls, having hit four fours and three sixes.
RCB off to a flier as they race to 41 for no loss in two overs, with another 40 needed from the last four overs for victory.
