KKR 183-5 (20 ovs) vs RCB | Scorecard

Jordan showing that RCB erred by not letting him complete his quota as he comes on to bowl the 19th over, his third of the innings.

He starts with a perfect yorker as Shakib loses his footing trying to keep it out before he gets on to deep midwicket.

Jordan bowls a wide as he misses the slower ball before bowling another full delivery which Russell digs out on the off-side for one and Shakib also gets one from the next.

This is sensational stuff from Jordan as he produces another superb yorker which sees Russell lose his balance this time.

But he spoils the over with a poor delivery, a half-volley outside the off-stump which Russell slams straight down the ground for a six.

Watson to bowl the final over. The Australian takes a few tricks from Jordan's previous over and looks to bowl it full and on the stumps.

Three singles from the first three balls before Russell hits a full toss over the off-side for a four but misses the next, which is again a full toss.

Shakib has a huge swing but fails to make connection and the umpire calls it a wide as the batsmen also sneak an extra bye. Russell heaves the last ball to deep midwicket as Jordan does well on the ropes to give away just two runs.

Kohli is unhappy with that wide call and has a word with umpire Nand Kishore and so does RCB coach Daniel Vettori.

KKR finish on a huge 183 for five with Russell slamming a quickfire 39 from 19 balls, while Shakib hit 18 from 11 balls.
