RCB 96-9 (20 ovs) vs Pune 157-3 | Scorecard

Ferguson comes back as he concedes just two singles in his fourth and final over. Interestingly, Smith even had two slips in place for the fast bowler in that over, who finishes with splendid figures of two for seven in four overs.

RCB finishing on a disappointing 96 for nine in their 20 overs to lose by a big margin of 61 runs.

Another flop show by the RCB batting line-up who didn't even manage to cross the 100-run mark with Kohli the only batsmen to score in double digits.

Tahir registered the best figures with three for 18, while Ferguson claimed two for seven and Unadkat, Christian and Washington picked up a wicket each.

RCB are nearly out of the running for a place in the play-off as they suffer their seventh loss in 10 games.

Meanwhile, Pune are firmly in the run for a place in the play-offs, having registered their fifth win in nine games.
