00:00The frenzy continues at the TADA IPL, last night in Amdavan, almost 90,000 people, now as the caravan moves to Bengaluru, the crowds outside are nothing short of a spectacle, it's always like that, here at Lachindaswamy.
00:19It's the fifth game of the season, here at the stadium and the crowd showed no signs of letting up, it might look like it's 3 versus 10, but it's never like that is it, when RCB take on CSK, we're coming to you live from Bengaluru.
00:40Still a contest to savor this one, might be one team flying high versus one team bringing up the rear, for CSK it's pretty unusual for RCB, they are celebrating a season like few others, very different.
01:02The toss is done, is it Wal Siddiqui, and Nitin Mennon, a third today, very great KT, Ian, but he still sounds like he is from there, yeah, Bournemouth, another partner, last couple of games with Jake.
01:18For England, he's an exciting talent, got to see him in.
01:23Come on and expect maybe that they'll look to bowl a little bit fuller.
01:26The umpires today, it's K.
01:32Hazelwood isn't playing today, we hear, if not short of boiling hot shot.
01:41Too short, too wide, easy pickings for Jacob Bethel, he was teeming in on that ball, but the length was awry.
01:55Just what.
01:56Too fine, will beat the fielder, it shouldn't have, but it does.
02:08Just a beautiful open base.
02:12More boundaries, all that Pati Rauna's doing is fetching one from the left, one from the right, now one again from the left.
02:19And he's chosen to chase today.
02:28That could be the best of them all, simply because he seemed ready for what the baller was throwing at him.
02:36It's a shot you have to be able to play, and Jacob Bethel plays it very well, we've seen already.
02:42Look at the first over, when I see him margin.
02:47Kohli deposits it deep into the stands.
02:56Plays the full shot, and he made that boundary look like a little Mickey Mouse boundary.
03:01This is food and drink for Virat Kohli.
03:12Now two, but it's a shot, that the batter would look back at the highlights himself and keep watching.
03:21This to me is typical, it is very typical of what we've seen from these two.
03:25Brilliant. You can have as many fielders as you want.
03:33That is only headed one way, goalie is.
03:38It's a quick outfield, don't bother running.
03:43So they're really making this power play count.
03:46The 50 comes up.
03:47Good evening, Shane Watson.
03:50Good evening, Ravi, Katie.
03:53That's huge.
03:53Long hop.
03:56And it's got a long way.
04:02Bethel has picked up the length so quickly.
04:05Just about as soon as it left.
04:07Noorah Matan, Bethel on the eye.
04:11That's full toss.
04:13This is ordinary bowling.
04:20That's picked again.
04:21That might have just gone the distance.
04:26Up go the hands.
04:29You stray in line, even marginally.
04:36Smashed on the ground.
04:40This is wonderful batting.
04:42He's striking at over 300, Virat Kohli.
04:48Once again, just the timing of the chart.
04:50That's a fine shot.
04:56That's a quality shot.
04:59Just the position he gets into.
05:01How late he plays it.
05:04Watch how still his head is as well.
05:07Okay, which has been way off the mark.
05:08There's a pace ball.
05:09That's a cracking shot for six.
05:13Flat as a tank.
05:14He's picked up length.
05:22More runs.
05:23More runs.
05:24A half century for Jacob Bethel.
05:27And a century studded with...
05:29Goodness me.
05:31Three for England in a test match.
05:33Women is a good thing.
05:34What would you know, Bish?
05:35Straight up now.
05:37This time.
05:38Now it's going to fall short again.
05:40He takes it.
05:41This is sensational.
05:44That ball was headed to...
05:46Bethel, what an innings.
05:47Beautiful.
05:50Wow.
05:53Janet has had Kohli searching a couple of times.
05:56And Kohli says, now you search for it.
06:03Powerful sweep then.
06:05Four CSK.
06:08And that's a beautiful stroke.
06:10Trajectory a bit faster from Jadeja.
06:13Elizabeth won the match.
06:15Well, there's another.
06:17He is toying with the field.
06:19Side view.
06:24It'll be stopped.
06:26No, he let it go.
06:33He had...
06:34And even as we...
06:38Even as we talk about that.
06:41Finds the fielder and shot third.
06:44Kohli has lit up this ground.
06:47But someone's turned the power off suddenly.
06:4962.
06:51RCP.
06:57Nice shot.
06:59It's a beep.
06:59The fielder down there who ran way to his left from long off.
07:04Very good in this is his IPL.
07:06The good night.
07:07So the Akumai out of it.
07:11Nice.
07:12The pressure was building on Dept at Padikal.
07:16He was striking at about 50.
07:19Now that boundary he will hope will do in the world of good.
07:23Yes, good body shape as he...
07:25Pace off.
07:29Ball gone.
07:30An Angel 1 Super 6.
07:32And that saw a little bit of the heavens as it went over the boundary.
07:38Yes, yes.
07:38The momentum shifted.
07:40He did.
07:44Does go wide above Stump.
07:46And it will bring success immediately.
07:50Jadeja takes an easy catch.
07:52Just the use of the field and the angle.
07:55Yes, this will spur him off.
07:56144 for three.
07:58Tret, he's not given room.
08:02Through everything at that.
08:04Jitesh almost swung himself off his...
08:07Too high.
08:15Too high.
08:15Straight to the fielder.
08:16It goes to a fielder.
08:19Who doesn't drop too many.
08:2254 for four.
08:28Straight to the fielder.
08:30And that's the point I wanted to bring up.
08:32Is there anything in the track that suggests
08:34that stroke play is starting to get a little difficult?
08:37Because Patita is a fine timer.
08:39And he's made 11 of 15.
08:41Yeah, as Matt and himself
08:42never really got a lead.
08:46Oh, Romario.
08:48Fines.
08:50The ground not for the first,
08:52not for the last.
08:54Yes, when the ball is coming on to the bat,
08:56you rely on timing.
08:58But it's not quite.
09:00Goes straight down the ground this time.
09:02Watch out in the stands.
09:05Romario Shepard
09:06is throwing a party of his own.
09:11Romario Shepard.
09:14Just over.
09:16Third was on the boundary.
09:17Just came inside the circle.
09:20Cleared him, but not by too much.
09:28Bang.
09:28Doesn't matter.
09:31The fielder slipped,
09:32but would have made no difference.
09:33It was sailing over.
09:37He's running out of ideas.
09:38You can see a blank look on his face.
09:40Cut it.
09:45Very high.
09:47Long enough.
09:48Yeah, as a ball,
09:49these are times where he is going to jail.
09:52Clover.
09:54Clover.
09:54One bounce into the boundary.
09:56No, you can't.
10:01Instead,
10:02he finds the ball disappearing to mid-wicket.
10:05I don't know what was faster.
10:07The ball coming at him,
10:08or the bat swing.
10:10I like the positions he's getting into.
10:13There you are.
10:13One going.
10:15Hard.
10:16Wide of mid-on.
10:17No chance.
10:19The fielder puts in a dive.
10:20But this ball has come off Romario's bat,
10:23not any other.
10:24And that means it's traveling very quickly.
10:27200 comes up.
10:30Launched.
10:31Go find it.
10:31Watch out.
10:32Watch out in the stands.
10:34Romario sending them your way.
10:3647 of 13.
10:39Oh, Romario.
10:41Even Previs is laughing.
10:43This is magnificent.
10:45This is.
10:46We're talking of group 4.
10:49And it goes high, deep low.
10:52Magnificent.
10:53Into the third tier.
10:55Romario Shepard put the boundaries back.
10:5753 runs of just 14.
10:59To Romario Shepard.
11:012, 1, 3, 4, 5.
11:04And the only person who's been running up and down.
11:08Gosh, what a display of power hitting that was.
11:10That on.
11:10And Khalil Armand is over.
11:12Khalil came their way.
11:13But Romario Shepard.
11:14Starting with spin.
11:16Hazelwood and Booby.
11:18Has been.
11:18She opened the batting in an under-19 worker.
11:21Oh, good ball.
11:23Almost like a gentleman.
11:25Aswami in the IPO.
11:27200.
11:30Straight back past the baller.
11:32Couple of bounces.
11:34Then the boundary.
11:35Really just had to clear the baller.
11:37And was going to be 4.
11:40This is a great challenge for...
11:43Can he beat the fielder?
11:46No, he can't.
11:46It was too close.
11:48No, I think he's pretty down the line.
11:52Oh, nice.
11:53We saw Bethel play a shot like that.
11:55This is just as classy.
11:57That is a...
12:03Maybe not so much tonight, but he's still...
12:06Fine shot.
12:11Bit of a free hit there.
12:15And all he had to do really was put back to ball.
12:17The man on the boundary was so square.
12:18That's an even better shot.
12:24And it goes the distance.
12:28Down the ground.
12:30Once again, not the best time shot from Ayush Matri.
12:34But he's cleared the field enough for ball.
12:38That's a nice stroke.
12:40Better shot.
12:44This time in full control.
12:46And hits through the line.
12:50And that's what happens when the ball before...
12:52Boovey bowled a nice length ball.
12:54But he's still got hit off his length down the ground.
12:56And then...
12:56That was an error.
12:57That was an error ball from Boovey.
13:00Two full.
13:01Now he's got his timing going.
13:06But Boovey will be the first to admit...
13:09That he gift-trapped that a little bit.
13:13Go Syria.
13:17That is a brilliant shot.
13:20Something has now...
13:22Turned right for Ayush Matri.
13:25After the struggle to the first two overs...
13:27He's getting...
13:28More.
13:31He might have found the gap through the offside this time.
13:35On this outfield.
13:37If you hit the gap, it's gone for four.
13:39That's a seventh ball.
13:42Oh, he finds a gap on the offside as well.
13:45This one's gone for four too.
13:47He's got...
13:47Straight to Romario Shepard.
13:52Who's been involved in the game.
13:54Intricately.
13:56Towards the batting end.
13:58And then now in the field.
13:59And Kunal Pandya.
14:0151 for one.
14:02Wicket to be backwards square in place.
14:05And there is that deep mid wicket chasing it down.
14:07He can't stop it.
14:08So Sam Curran has just continued from where he left off in the last game.
14:15It's a short ball.
14:16Not easy to put away.
14:17But...
14:18But you mentioned...
14:20That just actually looked like it.
14:26He should have won.
14:28He does have won.
14:31A great entrance into the bowling attack.
14:34For Nguidi.
14:35He's going to have asked for a better start.
14:41First over.
14:43Fourth ball.
14:44Gets the competitor.
14:48Drive a short ball.
14:50And Ayush has just top-edged it all the way for six.
14:5368 for two.
14:57Seven overs gone.
15:06Too quick down there.
15:08To be stopped.
15:10This is the sort of impetus they need to continue with.
15:13Yes.
15:13And with the due there, the ball will skid after pitching.
15:17Evidence of that.
15:18Top shop.
15:23Using the pace and hitting it square of the wicket.
15:26He made room as well.
15:27There wasn't too much.
15:28He just backed away.
15:31There's been a much more proactive Jadija in his first ten balls.
15:35Throughout this tournament so far.
15:36He's only been striking it.
15:37Just over a hundred different rules to play.
15:43He's deposited that into the stands.
15:45The ball has gone exactly where.
15:47Romario Shepard was sending it with that in hand.
15:51Now that's a slower delivery.
15:52But I like the way he's waited here.
15:54Normally when it's a slower delivery, you're hitting it that fine.
16:00Oh brilliant.
16:01That might be longer than anything that Romario Shepard might have hit.
16:05It's gone almost into the third year.
16:07Just drops inside.
16:10Talk of a taste of your own medicine.
16:14My word.
16:15What a way to bring up the.
16:17Jadija finds the gap.
16:20In fact goes well over.
16:22Long hop.
16:23It's a passage of play that's been all CSK.
16:2850 of the partnership in 20.
16:30That's his son.
16:34Finds the gap through the offside now.
16:35And now RCB needs to worry a little bit.
16:39Because this partnership is taking the bowling apart.
16:42And already Patidar is thinking, who do I give the next over to?
16:45And the difference is the ball's not holding into the surface now.
16:48The way that Jadija just gets.
16:5017, 68 of 30.
16:52Over 1.27 for 2.
16:5387.
16:56Oh and he finds the gap there.
16:58Threads the needle.
17:00There wasn't much space there.
17:02He's done magnificently to find the gap.
17:04This is just what I love about the game of cricket.
17:08You see.
17:10Ravi.
17:10Redonate.
17:11Jacob Bethel.
17:13Oh fine.
17:14They needed the boundary from that over.
17:16And they've got it towards the end of the over.
17:18There's a ball left.
17:19But they've got the boundary.
17:19They've got eight of it.
17:20You're revealing in the youths of Ayush Madra.
17:27Coaches with you.
17:28To ensure that you.
17:30Games mine.
17:3450 comes up for Rabindra Jadija.
17:36And 29 balls.
17:40He doesn't.
17:42Because this is a sensational hit.
17:44From young Ayush Madra.
17:45He's clear.
17:46Just look at what's like.
17:50And that's up in the end.
17:53Opportunity here.
17:56This guy that's taken.
17:58Krunal Pandya makes no mistake.
18:02A change of pace.
18:03Doing the trick.
18:05He's got a good slower ball.
18:06The young man couldn't resist.
18:082 for 3.
18:11And a good delivery.
18:12Straight out.
18:12Finger goes up.
18:132 and 2.
18:17Nungi and Giri put the catch down.
18:20Clock was ticking.
18:21Moment they started running.
18:23A dead ball.
18:24To the clock.
18:2572 for 4.
18:28That's big.
18:29High into the night sky.
18:31And it disappears.
18:34It's on the roof of the stadium.
18:38Another ball will come out.
18:40This time it's Jadija.
18:411.
18:42That's in the air.
18:50What's happened there?
18:51Virat Kohli.
18:52Of all people.
18:55Has put it down.
18:56And it's gone through him for 4.
18:59Oh, misses.
19:01That's straight.
19:02The finger has gone up.
19:03Looked out.
19:04He goes up.
19:12Impacting.
19:12Increase from Jadija earlier.
19:14A win.
19:15Anything less.
19:16And it's less.
19:17It's RCB who get 2 points.
19:20The beaten Le Chennai Super Kings.
19:23And it's a fantastic last over again.
19:26In spite of that 6 from Jadija.
19:27And extreme pressure.
19:30They've held their nose.
19:32And they've pulled off a special win.
19:35And they've got one leg into the...
