Good running between the wickets this! Krunal Pandya bowls it at the pads again, and Shimron Hetmyer nudges it to the square leg region and calls Jurel through for the second.

Josh Hazlewood to Shimron Hetmyer
OUT! CAUGHT BEHIND! Josh Hazlewood doing Josh Hazlewood things! What a timely wicket for RCB! Steams in and hits the deck hard, on a back of a length, around off and gets the ball to nip back in a bit too. Shimron Hetmyer looks to work it across but gets a faint inside edge that goes through to the keeper. Jitesh Sharma takes a good catch moving to his right and Shimron Hetmyer walks for another paltry score.

Josh Hazlewood to Dhruv Jurel
OUT! CAUGHT BEHIND! What a use of a review for RCB! This could be just what they needed to make a comeback into this game! Josh Hazlewood sees the batter back away and fires it very full and outside off, Dhruv Jurel cannot reach for it and misses to make any connection and the keeper takes it low to his right. There is not much of an appeal but RCB decide to challenge it and send it upstairs for a check. The UltraEdge loads up, and there is a spike as the ball passes the back of the bat. A huge roar across the stadium and the onfield call of NOT OUT is overturned to OUT!

Josh Hazlewood to Jofra Archer
OUT! CAUGHT! A golden duck for Jofra Archer and Josh Hazlewood has pulled this game back and how! Rajasthan Royals are losing the plot, AGAIN! He bangs the surface and bowls it on a hard length, over off, Jofra Archer stays put and throws his bat at it, in an attempt to slice it over the infield on the off side. The ball skids through quicker and takes the upper half of the bat. Lobs straight to Rajat Patidar at cover who takes a dolly. Josh Hazlewood on a Hat Trick!

Yash Dayal to Shubham Dubey
OUT! TAKEN! That should be the final nail in the coffin! Rajasthan Royals have butchered this chase and are on the brink of losing it. A full toss, on middle, Shubham Dubey could have hit it anywhere but he swings across and picks up Phil Salt at deep mid-wicket.

Yash Dayal to Wanindu Hasaranga
OUT! RUN OUT! Superb effort from Jitesh Sharma to execute this runout! Full and on middle, Wanindu Hasaranga knocks it to long off and calls for the second. Is way too slow on the sprint back and Tim David fires the throw, a bit wayward to the keeper. Jitesh Sharma moves across to his left, collects the ball and has to fling himself with an outstretched right hand to knock the bails and Wanindu Hasaranga is still caught short of the crease by a few inches.
