RR vs RCB, 18th match at Bengaluru, IPL, Apr 15 2012 - Ball by Ball Commentary

It's all over! starts and finishes off with Rahane in action again, Murali gives room and tries to loft it over covers but it comes off the bottom of the bat and loops high and our man of the evening Rahane at cover runs back and takes a regulation catch

on the legs, whipped to deep backward square leg for a single

short of a length, Aravind swings across the line and misses, straight to the keeper

length outside off, Aravind goes down on one knee and hammers it over the bowler's head with a flat bat, one bounce over the ropes

Aravind pulls it over to mid-on wherein Shah is late to react as he goes for the catch but falls short of him and the ball bounces in front of him and rolls on to the fence

similar line and length, angling in slightly, Murali tries to heave it over deep midwicket but misses it again, typical Murali trying to slog

change of pace deceives Murali as he looks to swipe it across the line and misses by a good margin

wide outside off, that has been drilled to wide long-on and go through for an easy single

pulls it over midwicket and scamper for two but a wild shy at the stumps from the keeper allows the batsmen to scramble for an extra run

similar line, Murali connects it this time as he swivels it over midwicket for a two

that's a typical Murali shot! slower one, he looks to swing across and misses it

on the full this time, Aravind pushes it to short midwicket as Hogg runs across and fields it

looks to sweep it away but fails to make contact as it spins sharply away from Aravind

tossed up outside off, Murali looks to drive but squeezes it to backward point

floating on the leg stump, Murali comes on the front foot and shows the full face of the bat to Hogg

Caught at midwicket! floating length, Zaheer tries to go over midwicket with a fierce pull but hits it out straight to Rahane who takes an easy catch

wrong 'un, Zaheer does not pick it at all, goes to the keeper

length ball angling away, Aravind tries to slap it past cover but it takes a thick outside edge and races away to the third man boundary

Bowled! that's the sixth time the timber has been disturbed in this innings, slightly short, skips down the track and looks to heave it over midwicket but the ball nips back off the seam and knocks the top of his middle stump

slower one, Vinay steers it to fielder at point for no run
