RCB 113-8 (16 ovs) vs Rajasthan 164-5 | Scorecard

The young Sarfaraz, who was retained by RCB for this season, needs to repay his team's faith.

Sarfaraz drives Sodhi down the ground for one before Southee gets a thick outside edge for a couple and another edge gives him a single.

A tidy over from Sodhi, giving away just four runs, as the Kiwi spinner finishes with one for 31 in his four overs.

Unadkat comes back as Sarfaraz throws his bat at the slower wide ball, smashing it over mid-off for a four.

He tries the upper cut but is unable to get the power on the slower ball for one to thirdman.

Southee is then hit on the helmet by a slower bouncer as Unadkat concedes just six to build up the pressure.

Laughlin comes into the attack and strikes with the wicket of Sarfaraz. The right-hander looks to play the late cut but wicketkeeper Klaasen comes up with a diving one-handed catch to his right.

Sarfaraz walks back for seven as RCB's hopes are all but over.

Laughlin leaves RCB in further strife with the wicket of Umesh off the very next delivery, who is bowled by a full incoming delivery.

The hat-trick is a slower ball floated well up as Mohammed Siraj defends it before he heaves the fifth ball through midwicket for a four and then takes one off the last ball.
