Pune 53-2 (8 ovs) vs RCB 185-3 | SCORECARD

Shane Watson comes into the attack. He makes a tidy start, conceding just four singles as Dhoni struggles to get his timing on a wicket where the ball is not coming on to the bat.

Debutant Tabraiz Shamsi, left-arm chinaman bowler comes into the attack. Rahane turns the first ball to midwicket for one and Dhoni does the same. Shamsi bowling from over the wicket and looking to keep it on the stumps and not give the batsmen anything to work with.

Rahane again turns the ball on the leg side for one before Dhoni comes down the track but is forced to defend.

A good start to the IPL from the South African spinner as just five runs come from his first over.

Binny comes back into the attack. Two singles from the first two balls before Rahane gets an inside edge past the wicketkeeper for a four.

However, he is total control as he plays a delicate late cut off the last ball for the second four of the over.

Binny goes for 12 in his second over with Pune going past the 50-run mark, in the eighth over.
