April 25, 2024 19:55

RCB 51-1 (5 ovs) vs SRH | Scorecard

Left-arm pacer Thangarasu Natarajan comes into the attack, replacing Bhuvneshwar Kumar, who went for 14 runs in his first over.

He starts with a half-volley on the stumps which Kohli flicks through midwicket for a boundary and then takes a single to point.

Du Plessis drills a full delivery straight back but it is stopped by the bowler on the follow through as he deflects it to mid-off before he perishes a couple of balls later.

The RCB captain looks to hit Natarajan over the off-side but fails to get enough elevation and is caught at mid-off after scoring 25 from 12 balls.

Will Jacks gets off the mark with a single from the last ball of the over.

Left-arm pacer Shahbaz Ahmed, who previously played for RCB, comes into the attack.

Jacks looks to slog the second ball across the line but gets it off the inside half for a single on the leg side to bring up RCB's 50, in the fifth over.

Kohli unable to find the gap off the next two deliveries before taking one down to long-off.

Jacks has another big swing off the last ball getting a thick inside edge to short fine leg, which saves him from getting bowled.

Fantastic start from Shahbaz as he concedes just two singles in his opening over.
