Mayank Agarwal received a special sending off from Yuzvendra Chahal during King XI Punjab's IPL 2020 clash against Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) at Sharjah on Thursday (October 15).

In chase of a respectable total of 172 runs, openers KL Rahul and Mayank Agarwal give an excellent start to KXIP.

They formed a formidable stand at the start and knitted together a 78-run stand for the first wicket. Mayank was particularly the aggressor as he kept applying pressure on the RCB bowlers with his power hitting.

However, that came to an end after Chahal was brought into the attack and the spinner knocked out Agarwal's bails with a wonderfully deceiving delivery.

The RCB spinner even said his "goodbyes" to the KXIP opener after finding a key breakthrough for RCB. This was also Chahal's 200th wickets in T20Is.

HERE IS THE VIDEO:

After opting to bat first, RCB got off to a good start as openers Devdutt Padikkal and Aaron Finch struck regular boundaries. The duo formed a 38-run partnership before Arshdeep Singh got hold of Padikkal (18) in the fifth over. Soon after that, Finch (20) too was sent back to the pavilion by Murugan Ashwin.

Virat Kohli and Washington Sundar then took the field but their partnership did not last long as the latter was dismissed by Ashwin in the 11th over. Shivam Dube was the next batsman and he, along with Kohli, took the team over the 100-run mark.

Dube scored 23 runs before Chris Jordan got hold of him in the 16th over and the dismissal brought AB de Villiers out on the field. However, de Villiers failed to impress as he scored just two runs before giving away an easy catch to Deepak Hooda off Mohammed Shami's delivery in the 18th over. In the same over, Shami removed Kohli (48) as well, reducing RCB to 136/6.

Morris and Udana were the next batmen and both struck 24 runs in the last over to help RCB post a total of 171 runs on the board. For KXIP, Shami and Ashwin took two wickets each in the match.

Bried scores: 171/6 [Virat Kohli 48 (39), Chris Morris 25* (8), Murugan Ashwin 2-23].
