    Chawla to de Villiers
    paddled past short fine, and those are the winning runs. Make no mistake, this has been a shellacking for the Knight Riders
    18.3
    1
    Russell to Kohli
    drilled down the ground to long-on, Russell seems to have done some damage to his knee. Or is it the ankle? He slipped on his followthrough again. He's walking off the field. Doesn't look good.
    18.2
    2
    Russell to Kohli
    yorker on middle and leg, squeezed to cover. Oh dear, they sneak another one on the overthrow. Poor awareness, the bowler was caught napping
    18.1
    6
    Russell to Kohli
    bowling change or no bowling change, it doesn't matter! DreRuss floats it full outside off from wide of the crease, Kohli rotates his wrists to pick it over the midwicket boundary. He had to fetch it from well outside off, effortlessly done
    17.6
    4
    Rajpoot to de Villiers
    the French cut this time. Goes for a yorker, nothing wrong with the intention, but it was angling down leg. AB swings, gets a bottom edge that sneaks through his legs and into the fine leg boundary
    17.5
    2
    Rajpoot to de Villiers
    lofted over the infield to Surya at deep midwicket. RCB dugout must be tired of applauding these strokes now. Exhilarating
    17.4
    1
    Rajpoot to Kohli
    another full toss, but Kohli didn't have the room to swing through the line this time, gets it down to long-on
    17.4
    2
    Rajpoot to de Villiers
    oversteps, and not, it wasn't the height in question. AB swipes the full toss to long-off. Free-hit time
    17.3
    1
    Rajpoot to Kohli
    takes it on the full, driven to long-off
    17.2
    2
    Rajpoot to Kohli
    full toss on middle, mistimes the swing towards midwicket, the man in the deep had to run in a long way to stop that
    17.1
    4
    Rajpoot to Kohli
    he's whiplashed that length ball from around the stumps into the boundary at wide long-on. Walks across to make room and then uses his wrists to go onside when he could have so easily gone over cover.
    16.6
    2
    Shakib to de Villiers
    walks across the stumps and slog sweeps it towards deep midwicket. Run-a-ball? Doesn't matter, they wull still take two
    16.5
    4
    Shakib to de Villiers
    fires it full and wide, AB looks to cut but gets a thick outside edge that beats short third man
    16.4
    1
    Shakib to Kohli
    rocket hit to the man at the edge of the circle at cover, Kohli's nerves, I'm afraid, will pop out any time soon
    16.3
    1
    Shakib to de Villiers
    sees AB walk across and floats it wide outside off, thumped to sweeper cover
    16.2
    1
    Shakib to Kohli
    driven with the spin to long-off
    16.1
    4
    Shakib to Kohli
    tossed up outside off, Kohli reverse sweeps that fiercely past short third man. Get it back, please
    15.6
    6
    Narine to de Villiers
    why worry when there's AB, Virat should be telling himself instead of being cross at himself. Shots like these should calm him down. AB gets across and under the flight before slog sweeping that into the deep backward square leg boundary. Picked the bones out of that one
    15.5
    1
    Narine to Kohli
    slapped to sweeper cover, Kohli slaps his pad with the bat in disgust
    15.4
    0
    Narine to Kohli
    looks like he's tiring here. Looks to slog sweep, but misses as the ball deflects off the pad towards Uthappa. Kohli was outside the crease for split second but managed to get back into the crease in time. Match awareness
