RCB 100-0 (9 ovs) vs Sunrisers 208-7 | Scorecard

Cutting mixing his pace, trying to keep Gayle guessing. But he is not letting any opportunity go by as he clubs another length ball straight into the sightscreen for his sixth six, as it continues to rain boundaries at the M Chinnaswamy stadium.

In the next over, Kohli comes down the track and chips Henriques down the ground as Warner does well to dive forward and attempt the catch but he fails to get to the ball and also ends up giving away a boundary.

Henriques then suffers at the hands Gayle, who blasts him for successive sixes over long-off and midwicket, to race to 70 from 33 balls.

Poor bowling from Henriques as he bowls another short wide delivery which Gayle hammers over the covers for a four.

No stopping Gayle, who has smashed 74 from 33 balls, to power RCB to 100 for no loss in nine overs. Kohli has been a silent spectator from the other end, scoring 20 from as many balls.

They need another 109 runs from 11 overs for victory at under 10 runs per over.
