Match over
0.1 : 0.1: Mohammed Siraj to Shikhar Dhawan, FOUR! Not the ideal start from Bengaluru. Glenn Maxwell makes a mess of this in the field and lets it go through to the fence. 
2.1: Mohammed Siraj to Jonny Bairstow, FOUR! Gets off the mark with that boundary! Overpitched in length, on middle and off, Jonny Bairstow takes his front leg out and picks it perfectly over wide mid on for a boundary. 
2.2 : 2.2: Mohammed Siraj to Jonny Bairstow, FOUR! This is crisp! Banged on a fuller length, outside off, Jonny Bairstow slashes it through cover for another boundary.

4.2 : 4.2: Alzarri Joseph to Shikhar Dhawan, FOUR! Shikhar Dhawan is very strong on the off side and he proves it time and again. A fuller delivery, on off, Shikhar Dhawan opens the bat face enough to loft it over covers for a boundary. 
4.5 : 4.5: Alzarri Joseph to Shikhar Dhawan, FOUR! Precisely timed! Another fuller delivery on off, Shikhar Dhawan just punches it to the left of mid off for four more runs. 
5.2 : 5.2: Yash Dayal to Prabhsimran Singh, FOUR! Good shot! Yash Dayal pitches this up again and outside off, Prabhsimran Singh shuffles across a bit and slices it off the higher part of the bat. The ball has enough power to go over extra covers and roll to the fence for a boundary.
6.4 : 6.4: Cameron Green to Prabhsimran Singh, SIX! BANG! Prabhsimran Singh connects this time alright!
7.5 : 7.5: Mayank Dagar to Shikhar Dhawan, SIX! INTO THE STANDS! Mayank Dagar gives this one some air and on off, Shikhar Dhawan dances down the track, has to fetch it but does that well and smokes it way over the long on fence for a biggie.

11.6: Alzarri Joseph to Liam Livingstone, OUT! CAUGHT BEHIND! Alzarri Joseph has produced a big, big wicket for Bengaluru. The dangerous Liam Livingstone has to walk back. 
12.1 : 12.1: Glenn Maxwell to Shikhar Dhawan, OUT! c Virat Kohli b Glenn Maxwell.
13.4 : 13.4: Cameron Green to Sam Curran, FOUR! Pulled away nicely on the shorter side of the boundary! Green bowls a bouncer on middle, Sam Curran picks the length right and nails the pull square of the wicket on the leg side for four runs. A much needed boundary this for Punjab.

16.2 : 16.2: Sam Curran to Anuj Rawat, Oh dear, Bengaluru are losing the plot and Chinnaswamy has gone silent. A huge appeal for LBW and the umpire gives it OUT! Anuj Rawat sends it upstairs for the review.
