That is that for the day. Do read, Karthik's report. Also watch out for Al Muthu's feature. This is Deva Muthu and Gopi Rangarajan signing off. Ciao ciao..

David Warner, SRH captain and Man of the Match: What a performance from the bowlers. The ball was swinging and the bowlers did well to pull things back. The spell from Boult and Bhuvi was brilliant. We pride ourselves on fielding, it is 50% percent of the game. If we get our fielding right, bowling and batting will take care of itself. Credit to the bowlers, they gave us a nice total to chase. I played with freedom and it was great knock from Dhawan. We are in a good place now and ready for our home games.

Virat Kohli, RCB captain: We were just not good enough with the ball. Maybe 20 runs short with the bat. The guys were off the button today. Hopefully, we can pull our socks up and come back stronger. We have a lot of freebies. I think the bowlers themselves will know that they were not good enough. With the bat we got close to 170, maybe it was a 180-185 wicket. We will have to improve with the ball. I guess Adam Milne will be fit for the next game and Starc will be coming in to boost the attack. As long as the boys are willing to improve, its all good.

Warner set up the chase with a flurry of boundaries before he was undone by Yuzi. The legspinner also had Williamson stumped for 5. However, Dhawan and KL Rahul combined well to seal with chase with ease. The RCB bowlers lacked rhythm and sprayed the ball all round the shop; their profligacy let them down.

Andy: "Karnataka boy slams RCB in karnataka"
