Glenn Maxwell to Ruturaj Gaikwad, OUT! CAUGHT! Would you believe it? The Chennai skipper, their backbone, departs first ball in a crunch game and Ruturaj Gaikwad is very disappointed with himself. Glenn Maxwell with the golden arm though. Maxwell starts from over the stumps and drops it short over middle, turning it in, Gaikwad just looks to rock back and help it on its way but tamely lobs it in front of short fine where Yash Dayal leans forward to take the catch. What a start to the chase!

Glenn Maxwell to Rachin Ravindra, FOUR! Top shot to end an entertaining first over, 12 runs and a wicket off it. Fractionally short but well wide of the off stump, Rachin Ravindra rocks back and cuts it nicely behind point for a boundary.

Mohammed Siraj to Rachin Ravindra, FOUR! Rachin Ravindra gets that one away. Fuller delivery just outside off, Ravindra drives it away not quite off the middle off the bat but in the gap between cover and point for a boundary.

Yash Dayal to Daryl Mitchell, OUT! CAUGHT! Instant impact from Yash Dayal and what a revelation he has been for Bengaluru in these later stages. Dayal drags the length back and bangs it in a bit around leg stump. Daryl Mitchell tries to hang back and back away to go over mid-wicket but gets into an awkward position and ends up scooping it wide of mid off. Virat Kohli gets across and takes it easily and boy, he is really pumped at the moment.

Yash Dayal to Ajinkya Rahane, SIX! BANG! Ajinkya Rahane is off the mark in style. This is banged in halfway down the track and over leg stump, Rahane swivels and pulls it over fine leg for a maximum.

Lockie Ferguson to Ajinkya Rahane, OUT! TAKEN! Lockie Ferguson strikes straightaway! A massive wicket for Bengaluru as this partnership was starting to hurt them. The Kiwi starts with a slower one, full and on off, Ajinkya Rahane looks to go over mid off but mistimes his shot due to the lack of pace, the ball goes high in the air, Faf du Plessis at covers settles under it, and pouches it safely. Rahane goes back after a decent knock but Chennai lose their third now!

Lockie Ferguson to Rachin Ravindra, SIX! Rachin Ravindra takes full toll of the Free HIt and adds salt into the wounds also bringing up his maiden Indian T20 League FIFTY. Full toss on the stumps, Ravindra backs away and swings the ball away over deep mid-wicket for a biggie and what a timely knock this could be from the young southpaw.

Lockie Ferguson to Rachin Ravindra, SIX! Wow, that is a smart shot and the momentum has completely shifted in this one over. Quick and short, angled across the off stump, Rachin Ravindra just ramps it without a fuss and the pace on the ball takes it over the third man fence for a maximum.

Glenn Maxwell to Rachin Ravindra, OUT! RUN OUT! Catastrophe! That is the last thing Chennai wanted after Shivam Dube got a life and now they lose the set-batter instead. Glenn Maxwell bowls it a bit fuller and angles it into the legs, Rachin Ravindra flicks it away just behind square leg and the batters look for two. Mahipal Lomror in the deep gets to it and fires in a throw at the keeper's end and Dinesh Karthik whips off the bails as Ravindra is nowhere to be seen. Ravindra seemed to have called no on the second run but Dube had his head straight and just didn't stop.

Cameron Green to Shivam Dube, OUT! CAUGHT! The plan to bowl quick and short to Shivam Dube has worked and Bengaluru pick up a couple of quick wickets to get into the driver's seat. Cameron Green comes from around the stumps and bangs it in short and at the batter. Dube looks to hang back and pull but gets hurried on and ends up hitting it straight down the throat of Lockie Ferguson at long on.

Cameron Green to Ravindra Jadeja, FOUR! Nicely timed! A bit too full and outside off, Ravindra Jadeja leans on a bit and just strokes it away wide of mid off for a boundary.

14.6
Mohammed Siraj to Mitchell Santner, OUT! CAUGHT! A bolt out of the blue! Faf du Plessis with probably the catch of the season and the crowd has gone berserk inside the Chinnaswamy. Mohammed Siraj runs in and serves a low full toss outside the off stump, Mitchell Santner doesn't quite get under it and ends up hitting it just over mid off. The ball seems to be going over but Faf leaps up and sticks out a right hand before touching it out of thin air. The hangtime was unreal and no one can quite believe it.

Cameron Green to MS Dhoni, FOUR! Mahi gets going now! Cameron Green lands this short again, on middle, a gift really for the batter, MS Dhoni just helps it over short fine leg for a boundary.

Yash Dayal to MS Dhoni, OUT! TAKEN! Oh..another twist in the tale! MS Dhoni has to walk back and Yash Dayal gets a huge wicket now. He brings out the slower one again, full and on leg. MS Dhoni tries to go for the big slog but gets a bit of a top edge towards deep square leg, Swapnil Singh settles under it and takes the catch under immense pressure. MS Dhoni will be disappointed as that was there to be put away but he has played a good cameo here.
