4.2 to P Arya, Krunal slants it away from Priyansh's arc, gets him caught on the edge of the ring right behind him. 96ks stock ball was on a length, Priyansh swipes across - like a slog sweep aimed to go straight - but it hits too high. That's the risk that comes with trying to hit on the up. 42/1
6.1 to Prabhsimran Singh, Fielding restrictions done, and the deep fielder is in play right away. First ball of the seventh over is generally low scoring, batters look for singles due to said field spreading. But Prabhsimran charges and looks to slug it across the line. Bat-face turned inwards and he got square-on upon impact. David moves right from long-on, knew he was well in front of the ropes and took the head-high catch with a twirl.. 62/2

7.4 to SS Iyer, Clothed... Krunal takes a stunner and RCB's newest entrant strikes in his first over. Krunal ran in from long-on, was racing to his left, took the catch around his chest while at full pace, he then tumbles down and throws the ball up in one motion. He's ecstatic as is Shepherd and Kohli, who gives the bowler a big hug. Was a full ball around middle and leg, Shreyas went back in the crease and thrashed it through the line, sliced it in the end. Bat-face opened on impact. It's boom or bust for him again. 68/3

13.2 to JP Inglis, gone!! The off stump comes out. Suyash strikes, and gets the big one. He bowled this on a length on middle and off, and got a lot of sidespin there. Inglis had backed away to try and loft this over the off side, but was beaten by the invisible turn away from him. He missed, and the ball pinged the off stump. 112/5
13.5 to MP Stoinis, lovely bowling! He has foxed two Australian batters within a matter of seconds. This time he hits the leg stump by bowling the googly. More importantly, Suyash slowed it down considerably to beat Stoinis. Suyash bowled on a length around middle and off, and got just the ideal dip and turn back in. Stoinis was trying to fend at it, but was completely beaten. 114/6

0.6 to PD Salt, Arshdeep celebrappeals, Salt doesn't move but will walk after the ump raises his finger. Ball similar to the one Kohli pulled for four earlier. This was 123ks, landed very short and angled away through off, Salt was beside the line and looked to pull it square, his eyes were pointed towards midwicket as he swung - very much off the ball. The ball grazed the edge and skimmed above his shoulder.. 6/1

12.3 to D Padikkal, taken at long-on!! Padikkal falls, and gives PBKS a sniff. He skips down the pitch, even as Brar bowls it on a length, and slow just outside off. Padikkal goes ahead with the slog across the line, but ends up finding the fielder, who is placed bang on the edge of the boundary, and who takes it with a reverse cup. 109/2

16.4 to RM Patidar, Chahal strikes! Patidar looks to repeat some of Kohli's heroics, but can't clear long-on. Chahal had slowed it down nicely there, and got this to dip on a fullish length on the stumps. Patidar went lofting across the line, but mistimed the loft. Stoinis takes it with a reverse cup. 143/3
