Rohit Sharma, Ishan Kishan and Tim David hit quickfire 40s while Romario Shepherd hammered 39* off just 10 balls. The entire MI bowling attack was taken apart except Jasprit Bumrah, who produced a sensational spell of 2 for 22 in four overs.

Batting first, RCB posted 183 on the board with Virat Kohli hitting 113 off 72. But it wasn’t enough as their bowling unit was ineffective against Sanju Samson and Jos Buttler.
