After Virat Kohli was departed for a duck in the first innings, RCB took revenge as Glenn Maxwell was sent to bowl and on the very first ball, Abhishek Sharma took a run after facing a ball, but Shahbaz Ahmed who was at cover does well to score a direct-hit at the keeper's end. Kane Williamson's bat was on the line and was given a runout. The skipper did not even face a ball.

Maxwell did not stop there and on his fifth ball, he bowled Abhishek Sharma, out. The RCB all-rounder pitched it up around off and the ball doesn't spin much. Abhishek Sharma rocked back to pull this away but missed it altogether and the off-stump was seen falling. 

Abhishek Sharma is bowled out and both #SRH openers are back in the hut.
