42nd Match

Jos Buttler: Really good batting surface. One of the biggest differences was taking our catches. Some fantastic bowlers with the new ball on show.

Rajat Patidar | RCB captain: The score was not enough, I think we managed to stretch the match to 16th over, that's a positive. We gave a lot of wickets in the middle overs. Bhuvneshwar is an experienced bowler, the way he bowled, it was incredible. We are not looking at the table, our aim is to play good cricket.

23:03 Local Time, 17:33 GMT, 23:03 IST: RCB with a good effort to take 6 wickets and take this till the 16th over. But 155 on this pitch was never going to trouble GT and they won with overs to spare in the end. Gill earlier on was on a mission as he attacked Hazlewood and set the tone. 24 came off the 2nd over of the innings and it looked like Gill was in the mood to finish it off early. But Bhuvneshwar bowled superbly and got the breakthroughs. Three of them and he gave his side hope. Shepherd chipped in with two but the impact sub - Rahul Tewatia played a calm hand and ensured GT won. RCB would've hoped for a better showing with the bat but tonight was not theirs and they would look to correct that soon. GT now have won two in a row. Stay tuned for the post-match stuff....

Romario Shepherd to Washington Sundar, out Lbw!! Even the normally "placid" Bhuvi roars once he sees the big screen. That's what this means to RCB. And Kohli is punching the air and roaring as usual.
