RCB 19-1 (2 ovs) vs Rajasthan 217-4 | Scorecard

Brendon McCullum and Quinton de Kock to open the batting for RCB, while Krishnappa Gowtham will take the new ball for Royals.

The first ball is punched in the covers by McCullum but Samson, who played a fantastic knock with the bat, lets one go through his legs to gift RCB a four.

Two dot balls before McCullum pulls the next ball powerfully but straight into the hands of Ben Stokes at deep midwicket, who does well to take a sharp catch flying over his head, timing his jump to perfection.

Virat Kohli gets off the mark with a single from the last ball as Gowtham makes the perfect start with the ball.

With a huge target to chase, Kohli wastes no time in looking to get after the bowlers.

Pacer Dhawal Kulkarni's first ball is driven through the covers for a boundary before he repeats the shot two balls later for another boundary.

Kohli then shuffles across and whips the fourth ball over midwicket for the third four of the over, followed by two singles to get 14 from the second over.
