BOWLINGOMRWECON0s4s6sWDNB
Anil Kumble403318.25122210
11.2 to HH Gibbs, bounce does it as Gibbs is far down the track and is deceived which allows Goswami to fumble with the ball once and still whip the bails off. Bowling change has worked for the Royal Challengers. 101/1
Dale Steyn401924.75132010
19.4 to AS Yadav, short outside the off stump, Arjun finally connects the pull shot but does not get the timing right as he finds Chipli at deep square leg. 165/9
19.6 to RP Singh, perfect end to the innings as RP is castled by the yorker. 165/10
Jacques Kallis1.2019014.2512110
Virat Kohli3.402526.8160111
13.2 to LPC Silva, on the good length outside the off stump, Silva looks to drill through the off side and gets a faint nick back to the keeper, who does very well to hold onto it and then appeal. Rauf has no hesitation in giving it out and rightly so. 109/3
17.3 to DB Ravi Teja, Timber! Teja moves across and looks to slog it away to midwicket but misses the line completely as the stumps are disturbed and he has to inch his way back to the pavilion. 151/5
Vinay Kumar402736.75174101
12.3 to AC Gilchrist, Vinay gets it right this time as he pitches a full length delivery outside the off stump, Gilchrist goes for the lofted shot again but is not able to long off, where Akhil takes the catch running forward. 109/2
14.6 to RG Sharma, on a good length outside the off stump, Rohit comes down the track and looks to loft it over long off but gets a top edge which flies towards sweeper on the off side and Steyn takes the catch comfortably. 123/4
18.2 to Y Venugopal Rao, Vinay has his man as he bowls a fuller one on the middle stump, Venu looks to play it away on the leg side but gets a leading edge to extra cover, where Jaffer takes the catch. 164/6

BOWLINGOMRWECON0s4s6sWDNB
Chaminda Vaas403619.00107000
17.2 to V Kohli, Virat Kohli throws it away as he moves back and looks to go inside out but gets a top edge to extra cover where Ravi Teja takes the catch. 141/5
RP Singh301505.0092000
Sanjay Bangar403017.50105000
15.5 to R Dravid, outside the off stump and moving away a touch as Dravid pokes at it and gets a thin edge back to the keeper and Koertzen is pretty slow in raising the dreaded finger. 119/4

Dwaraka Ravi Teja201919.5030200
11.1 to Misbah-ul-Haq, short on the middle stump, Misbah miscues his shot as it entrenches itself in the hands of Chamara Silva at long on. The bowling change has done the trick for Chargers. 79/3
