Punjab 143-3 (15 ovs) vs RCB 202-4 | Scorecard

Off-spinner Washington Sundar comes into the attack. He makes a tidy start, giving away just two singles in his first over as the two left-handers -- Pooran and Miller -- look to get the innings back on track.

Moeen also does a good job, giving away just six singles in his second over as RCB look to build the pressure with some tight overs.

Pooran then breaks the shackles as he takes Sundar to the cleaners. He slams the first ball over long-off for a six before hitting the next ball in the same region for another six.

Two balls later, he lofts the ball again over long-off for the third six of the over and then takes a single to get 19 from the over as Punjab make their way back.

Saini comes back into the attack. Pooran continues his attack as he smashes a wide delivery from the pacer over the cover region for a six, before he slams the next through the same area for a four.

Pooran then mishits the pull shot beaten for pace as he takes one and Miller steers the next past point for two runs before taking a single.

Punjab are on course on 143 for three in 15 overs, needing 60 from 30 balls for victory.

Pooran has smashed his way to 30 from 18 balls, while Miller is playing second fiddle on 10 from 14 balls.
