That's It! Some last moment fireworks from MS Dhoni but it will only entertain the crowd. In the end, CSK suffer a massive-50 run loss and this is the first victory of RCB at Chepauk in last 17 years. They had their first victory against CSK at Chepauk in 2008. After 17 years, they get their second and the streak is now broken. A top performance from the entire RCB playing XI and they will be happy going into the next game.

Out! Josh Hazlewood comes back strong in the over. First gets hit for two boundaries off MS Dhoni and when he goes off strike, Ravindra Jadeja tries the same only to get holed out in the deep. A big defeat on the cards for CSK. Jadeja c Phil Salt b Hazlewood 25(19).

28 Mar, 22:52 (IST)

Out! Ravichandran Ashwin gets holed out in the deep. Shortish and on the leg stump, Ashwin rocks back and pulls, not enough power and he finds the fielder. Not that he could have done much. Meanwhile, MS Dhoni comes out to bat. Ashwin c Phil Salt b Livingstone 11(8).

28 Mar, 22:40 (IST)

Out! Yash Dayal has seemingly decided the game with his over. Comes in the middle overs despite being a middle-over specialist and nails his variations to first clean up Rachin Ravindra and then Shivam Dube. RCB's win seems to a wait of time now. Shivam Dube b Yash Dayal 19(15).

28 Mar, 22:16 (IST)

After trying to hold off the new ball by promoting their middle order batters, CSK have finally subbed in Shivam Dube. At this point CSK has to fire right now to have even a chance. Shivam Dube will not get time to get his eyes in. RCB will be happy with the situation. 

28 Mar, 22:13 (IST)

Out! Sam Curran departs and they keep sinking the hole of desperation. The situation demanded them to absolutely go hard on the spinners and they had no choice to go after Liam Livingstone who was tossing the balls up inviting the CSK batters to hit. Sam Curran miscues one and gets caught by long off. RCB are well-ahead in the game. Sam Curran c Krunal Pandya b Livingstone 8(13).

28 Mar, 22:05 (IST)

Absolutely horror start for CSK in the powerplay as they have lost three wickets and didn't get much runs to start with. They have now entered a rebuild phase at a time they needed to accelerate. Now the pressure keeps rising on them. 

28 Mar, 21:58 (IST)

Out! Another blow for CSK and they are in trouble now. Short of a good length ball just outside off, Hooda hangs back to poke with a slightly opened bat-face and gets a faint nick on the way to the hands of Jitesh Sharma. Bhuvneshwar Kumar gets his first wicket in the RCB colours and puts RCB comfortably on top here. Hooda c Jitesh Sharma b Bhuvneshwar 4(9).

28 Mar, 21:41 (IST)

Out! Body blow for CSK. Similar kind of dismissal. Josh Hazlewood goes into the wicket and asks Ruturaj Gaikwad to take him on. He goes for the pull shot and that side being the bigger side, Gaikwad holes out at the deep. Well-planned and executed by RCB.  Gaikwad c (sub)Bhandage b Hazlewood 0(4).

28 Mar, 21:37 (IST)

Out! A similar kind of dismissal for Rahul Tripathi. Josh Hazlewood, who is in good rhythm bounces him up and Rahul Tripathi fails trying to pull him. The ball hits on the sticker of the bat and scoops to Phil Salt at short mid-wicket. RCB draw early blood. Tripathi c Phil Salt b Hazlewood 5(3).
