Pune 63-2 (9 ovs) vs RCB | Scorecard

Aravind comes back as he sends down a tidy second over, giving away four singles as Pune reach 67 for two in 10 overs with Smith on 16 and Tiwary on seven.

Negi bowls another good, conceding just two runs as he beats Smith twice and even survives a shout for leg before wicket.

Smith finally releases some pressure as he slog sweeps Badree over midwicket for a six. The next ball is dropped as Smith goes back and slaps it through the covers for a four. He looks to cut the next ball but gets an edge which goes fine on the off-side for another boundary as Badree gives away 16 runs in the over.

Tiwary ensures the momentum doesn't drop as he gives Chahal the charge and lofts him over midwicket for a six. He chips the next ball in the same region for two runs and then takes a single. Smith then steps back and slaps it square for three runs as the fielder does well at sweeper cover.

Pune have got going, with 29 coming from the last two overs as they reach 98 for two in 13 overs.
