   Batting	R	B	4s	6s	S/R
   Virat Kohli	31	30	3	0	103.33
   st Nicholas Pooran b Ravi Bishnoi 8.6 Ravi Bishnoi to Virat Kohli, OUT! STUMPED! KOHLI GOES! Brilliant from Bishnoi. He anticipated really well. Ravi Bishnoi sees Kohli dance down the track and slows it up, bowls it full and outside off. Kohli had to reach for it but misses and Nicholas Pooran quickly pulls off the bails. The spinners keeping things tight here. 62/1
   Faf du Plessis (C)	44	40	1	1	110.00
   c Krunal Pandya b Amit Mishra 16.5 Amit Mishra to Faf du Plessis, OUT! TAKEN! Brilliant catch from Pandya and Amit Mishra roars as he ends the over well. This is full and outside off, lands and spins away. Faf du Plessis tries to heave but gets a top edge to cover. Krunal Pandya was standing across, he runs to his right and holds onto the skier. 109/5
   Anuj Rawat	9	11	0	0	81.82
   c Kyle Mayers b Krishnappa Gowtham 11.4 Krishnappa Gowtham to Anuj Rawat, OUT! TAKEN! Rawat's struggle comes to an end! He was sent in to do some damage but fails in the process. Krishnappa Gowtham bowls it short, slow and outside off. It was there to be hit but Anuj Rawat fails to power and finds Kyle Mayers at deep mid-wicket. 75/2
   Glenn Maxwell	4	5	0	0	80.00
   lbw b Ravi Bishnoi 12.4 Ravi Bishnoi to Glenn Maxwell, OUT! LBW! That looks out and it is given out! Glenn Maxwell reviews it though. He thinks height has saved him here. Ultra Edge shows no bat. Ball Tracking shows umpire's call on the wicket's hitting and Glenn Maxwell has to go. Big wicket for Lucknow and Ravi Bishnoi is mixing things really well here. Bowls it flat and on middle. Glenn Maxwell goes for the reverse-hit but misses and gets hit on the pads. Pressure on the skipper as Bangalore keep on losing wickets. 80/3
   Suyash Prabhudessai	6	7	0	0	85.71
   c Krishnappa Gowtham b Amit Mishra 14.3 Amit Mishra to Suyash Prabhudessai, OUT! GONE! Amit Mishra floats it on middle, a bit of extra bounce. Prabhudessai goes back and tries to go over long off but mistimes. Krishnappa Gowtham in the deep misjudges the flight but eventually dives forward to take the catch.  90/4
   Dinesh Karthik (Wk)	16	11	1	1	145.45
   run out (Yash Thakur) 18.4 Yash Thakur to Wanindu Hasaranga, OUT! Karthik is RUN OUT! That is some incredible work from Yash! Karthik goes and that will make a lot of difference to the final score. Length and on off, Wanindu Hasaranga plays it back to Thakur who was aware that Karthik was pushing for a run. Yash Thakur picks up, turns and hits the stumps at his side. Karthik slips as well, as he tries to rush back but Yash Thakur would have still got the better of him. 117/7
   Mahipal Lomror	3	4	0	0	75.00
   lbw b Naveen-ul-Haq 17.5 Naveen-ul-Haq to Mahipal Lomror, OUT! LBW! Naveen-ul-Haq shouts for LBW and he gets his man. It is taken upstairs to check. This is on a length and around off from around the wicket. Mahipal Lomror steps across to nudge it but misses and gets hit on the pads. This one actually nips in off the deck. No bat there clearly. Ball Tracking shows the impact is umpire's call while the wickets are hitting. The on-field call stays. Only Naveen-ul-Haq was appealing for this one. Mahipal Lomror goes. 114/6
   Wanindu Hasaranga	8	7	1	0	114.29
   not out
   Karn Sharma	2	2	0	0	100.00
   c Krishnappa Gowtham b Naveen-ul-Haq 19.2 Naveen-ul-Haq to Karn Sharma, OUT! TAKEN! A slower length ball, outside off, Karn Sharma tries to cut it over point but balloons it for Krishnappa Gowtham to take a simple catch. All going downhill for Bangalore. 121/8
   Mohammed Siraj	0	1	0	0	0.00
   c Nicholas Pooran b Naveen-ul-Haq 19.3 Naveen-ul-Haq to Mohammed Siraj, OUT! A full ball, outside off. Mohammed Siraj shuffles way across to paddle it but seems to miss it. Nicholas Pooran this time puts up an appeal and feels there is something on it. Lucknow take it upstairs. Tell you what, the UltraEdge shows there is indeed some part of the gloves and Mohammed Siraj has to go. Nicholas Pooran knew. Superb review. 121/9

   Kyle Mayers	0	2	0	0	0.00
   c Anuj Rawat b Mohammed Siraj 0.2 Mohammed Siraj to Kyle Mayers, OUT! TAKEN! The dangerous Kyle Mayers is out of here! An early strike for Bangalore and it is surely they wicket they would have wanted. Siraj gets Mayers again. This time he goes short and it hurries Mayers. He looks to pull but this goes off the splice towards mid on. Anuj Rawat takes it. 0/1
   Ayush Badoni (IP)	4	11	0	0	36.36
   c Virat Kohli b Josh Hazlewood 4.1 Josh Hazlewood to Ayush Badoni, OUT! TAKEN! That is a sharp, sharp catch from Virat Kohli! His second but this one is a lot better than the last one. The change of ends for Josh Hazlewood works and this is his first wicket this season. The big man, did not take long to make an impact. This is fuller and around off, it is driven uppishly but towards cover. Virat Kohli times his jump and takes it. It was travelling. Lucknow in big trouble now. 21/3
   Krunal Pandya	14	11	3	0	127.27
   c Virat Kohli b Glenn Maxwell 3.3 Glenn Maxwell to Krunal Pandya, OUT! TAKEN! Glenn Maxwell is absolutely pumped up! He did not do a lot with the bat but gets the opposition, stand-in skipper. That is a nothing shot from Krunal. He steps out, the length is shortened. Krunal Pandya ends up chipping it towards long off where Virat Kohli takes it. He may have been in two minds whether to go hard at it or just push it, in the end, a nothing shot costs him his wicket. Deepak Hooda walks out to bat. 19/2
   Deepak Hooda	1	2	0	0	50.00
   st Dinesh Karthik b Wanindu Hasaranga 5.1 Wanindu Hasaranga to Deepak Hooda, OUT! STUMPED! Deepak Hooda has nothing behind the line and Wanindu Hasaranga strikes on the very first ball he bowls in this game. Four down inside the Powerplay and not many teams win after that even if one is chasing a low total. The googly does the trick. This lands outside off and turns back in. Deepak Hooda does not read it and looks to work it on the leg side but misses. Karthik whips the bails off and appeals. It is taken upstairs, they check for the caught behind but no spike on Ultra Edge and Hooda has not made it back in. 27/4
   Marcus Stoinis	13	19	0	1	68.42
   c Suyash Prabhudessai b Karn Sharma 10.4 Karn Sharma to Marcus Stoinis, OUT! TAKEN! Marcus Stoinis falls now. The big fish, the man who Lucknow were reliant on to take them over the line falls. Karan Sharma gets him again. This is tossed up outside off, Marcus Stoinis looks to go over long off, this goes more off the outer half towards long off. Suyash Prabhudessai takes a good catch. Is that the game for Bangalore. NO Rahul yet as Ravi Bishnoi walks out to bat. 65/6
   Nicholas Pooran (Wk)	9	7	0	1	128.57
   c Mahipal Lomror b Karn Sharma 6.6 Karn Sharma to Nicholas Pooran, OUT! TAKEN! Half the side back in the hut and the score is not even 50. The match-winner in the last game, Nicholas Pooran walks back. Bangalore all over Lucknow. They know how big a wicket this is! This is tossed up on the pads, Nicholas Pooran looks to go over the square leg fence, he ius early in the swing, it goes off the toe-end towards deep square leg. It is taken by Mahipal Lomror! 38/5
   Krishnappa Gowtham	23	13	1	2	176.92
   run out (sub) 11.1 Harshal Patel to Krishnappa Gowtham, OUT! RUN OUT! Krishnappa Gowtham is out here now! He is just short. Not sure why did he not put in the dive or stretch better. He would have been in. Lucknow now are 7 down. This is fuller and outside off, it is guided through point. They take one and go for the second, probably becuase Krishnappa Gowtham wanted to strike. Sonu Yadav, the sub, picks the ball up and fires it to the keeper. Karthik whips the bails off. That was a really good throw, flat and not very far away from the stump. He is a pace bowler and hence, he has a good arm. 66/7
   Ravi Bishnoi	5	10	0	0	50.00
   run out (Harshal Patel) 14.4 Mahipal Lomror to Ravi Bishnoi, OUT! RUN OUT! Even the dive does not Ravi Bishnoi! This is on middle, the reverse sweep comes out, it is nailed towards point. Josh Hazlewood leaps and gets a hand to it. It does not stick. Harshal Patel from short third man runs after it. The batters go for two. The throw is to the keeper who whips the bails off. Ravi Bishnoi is well short. 77/8
   Amit Mishra	19	30	2	0	63.33
   c Dinesh Karthik b Harshal Patel 19.5 Harshal Patel to Amit Mishra, OUT! TAKEN! Harshal Patel gets the last wicket. A slower one around off, Amit Mishra looks to go downtown. He is through the shot, way, way too early. Ends up hitting it high up in the air behind the wicket. That shows how early he was into the shot. Dinesh Karthik makes no mistake. Bangalore win by 18 runs! 108/10
   Naveen-ul-Haq	13	13	2	0	100.00
   c Dinesh Karthik b Josh Hazlewood 18.4 Josh Hazlewood to Naveen-ul-Haq, OUT! TAKEN! A boundary and out for Naveen-ul-Haq! Shorter and outside off, Naveen-ul-Haq slashes at it but it goes off the outside edge and it is taken by the keeper. 103/9

12:02 amThat is it from this game then! The Indian T20 League continues on the second of this month. It is Gujarat taking on Delhi. That game begins at 7.30 pm IST (1400 GMT). The build-up though begins a lot earlier. Do join us. Till then, take care and goodbye!

12:01 amFaf du Plessis, MAN OF THE MATCH, says the wicket here and the wicket back home are the complete opposite. Reckons they played well in the Powerplay and that is what was the difference. Also adds, batting first was better, spinners were difficult to face and it is pretty hard to score if the bowlers hit the right lines and lengths. Mentions, he feels 135 would have been a good score as the nature of the wicket was very tough. Also says they needed early wickets in the Powerplay and got it. Credits the way Josh Hazlewood and Karn Sharma bowled and says he is super happy for the latter as he has been brilliant whenever picked.

11:49 pm... PRESENTATION TIME ...

11:54 pmKrunal Pandya, the stand-in captain of Lucknow, is up for a chat. He says the bowling was really good from their side but the batters were not upto the mark yet again. Informs he does not know how bad Rahul's injury was but they are keeping a close watch.

11:54 pmFor Lucknow, it was yet another poor performance with the bat. Just one batter managed to cross the 20-run mark and that was Krishnappa Gowtham. When you lose by 18 runs chasing just 126 that indicates how poor one side was with the bat. Their bowlers did brilliantly in the first half to restrict a powerful batting line-up to a low score but their batters were equally poor and in the end, it is yet another loss for them at their home ground.

11:53 pmThat is some bowling performance from Bangalore. 126 was not such a big total, despite the wicket being extremely slow and Lucknow not having Rahul but the Bangalore bowlers were exceptional. Also, credit to Faf du Plessis who was excellent with his captaincy as well. It was Siraj who started things off with a wicket in the first over and Josh Hazlewood did his job from the other end. Faf's change of bowlers also worked brilliantly as whoever he got on, managed to deliver. When you defend 126, you need all your bowlers to do a good job and that was exactly the case for Bangalore. Except for Mahipal Lomror, all the bowlers got a wicket at least.

11:07 pmDRINKS! A miracle is what is needed for Lucknow if they are to win this game. Rahul may not bat and it is on their bowlers to pull it off. We have seen miracles happen earlier on in this tournament, can it happen again?

Krishnappa Gowtham bowls it short, slow and outside off. It was there to be hit but Anuj Rawat fails to power and finds Kyle Mayers at deep mid-wicket. 75/2
   Glenn Maxwell	4	5	0	0	80.00
   lbw b Ravi Bishnoi 12.4 Ravi Bishnoi to Glenn Maxwell, OUT! LBW! That looks out and it is given out! Glenn Maxwell reviews it though. He thinks height has saved him here. Ultra Edge shows no bat. Ball Tracking shows umpire's call on the wicket's hitting and Glenn Maxwell has to go. Big wicket for Lucknow and Ravi Bishnoi is mixing things really well here. Bowls it flat and on middle. Glenn Maxwell goes for the reverse-hit but misses and gets hit on the pads. Pressure on the skipper as Bangalore keep on losing wickets. 80/3
   Suyash Prabhudessai	6	7	0	0	85.71
   c Krishnappa Gowtham b Amit Mishra 14.3 Amit Mishra to Suyash Prabhudessai, OUT! GONE! Amit Mishra floats it on middle, a bit of extra bounce. Prabhudessai goes back and tries to go over long off but mistimes. Krishnappa Gowtham in the deep misjudges the flight but eventually dives forward to take the catch.  90/4
   Dinesh Karthik (Wk)	16	11	1	1	145.45
   run out (Yash Thakur) 18.4 Yash Thakur to Wanindu Hasaranga, OUT! Karthik is RUN OUT! That is some incredible work from Yash! Karthik goes and that will make a lot of difference to the final score. Length and on off, Wanindu Hasaranga plays it back to Thakur who was aware that Karthik was pushing for a run. Yash Thakur picks up, turns and hits the stumps at his side. Karthik slips as well, as he tries to rush back but Yash Thakur would have still got the better of him. 117/7
   Mahipal Lomror	3	4	0	0	75.00
   lbw b Naveen-ul-Haq 17.5 Naveen-ul-Haq to Mahipal Lomror, OUT! LBW! Naveen-ul-Haq shouts for LBW and he gets his man. It is taken upstairs to check. This is on a length and around off from around the wicket. Mahipal Lomror steps across to nudge it but misses and gets hit on the pads. This one actually nips in off the deck. No bat there clearly. Ball Tracking shows the impact is umpire's call while the wickets are hitting. The on-field call stays. Only Naveen-ul-Haq was appealing for this one. Mahipal Lomror goes. 114/6
   Wanindu Hasaranga	8	7	1	0	114.29
   not out
   Karn Sharma	2	2	0	0	100.00
   c Krishnappa Gowtham b Naveen-ul-Haq 19.2 Naveen-ul-Haq to Karn Sharma, OUT! TAKEN! A slower length ball, outside off, Karn Sharma tries to cut it over point but balloons it for Krishnappa Gowtham to take a simple catch. All going downhill for Bangalore. 121/8
   Mohammed Siraj	0	1	0	0	0.00
   c Nicholas Pooran b Naveen-ul-Haq 19.3 Naveen-ul-Haq to Mohammed Siraj, OUT! A full ball, outside off. Mohammed Siraj shuffles way across to paddle it but seems to miss it. Nicholas Pooran this time puts up an appeal and feels there is something on it. Lucknow take it upstairs. Tell you what, the UltraEdge shows there is indeed some part of the gloves and Mohammed Siraj has to go. Nicholas Pooran knew. Superb review. 121/9

   Kyle Mayers	0	2	0	0	0.00
   c Anuj Rawat b Mohammed Siraj 0.2 Mohammed Siraj to Kyle Mayers, OUT! TAKEN! The dangerous Kyle Mayers is out of here! An early strike for Bangalore and it is surely they wicket they would have wanted. Siraj gets Mayers again. This time he goes short and it hurries Mayers. He looks to pull but this goes off the splice towards mid on. Anuj Rawat takes it. 0/1
   Ayush Badoni (IP)	4	11	0	0	36.36
   c Virat Kohli b Josh Hazlewood 4.1 Josh Hazlewood to Ayush Badoni, OUT! TAKEN! That is a sharp, sharp catch from Virat Kohli! His second but this one is a lot better than the last one. The change of ends for Josh Hazlewood works and this is his first wicket this season. The big man, did not take long to make an impact. This is fuller and around off, it is driven uppishly but towards cover. Virat Kohli times his jump and takes it. It was travelling. Lucknow in big trouble now. 21/3
   Krunal Pandya	14	11	3	0	127.27
   c Virat Kohli b Glenn Maxwell 3.3 Glenn Maxwell to Krunal Pandya, OUT! TAKEN! Glenn Maxwell is absolutely pumped up! He did not do a lot with the bat but gets the opposition, stand-in skipper. That is a nothing shot from Krunal. He steps out, the length is shortened. Krunal Pandya ends up chipping it towards long off where Virat Kohli takes it. He may have been in two minds whether to go hard at it or just push it, in the end, a nothing shot costs him his wicket. Deepak Hooda walks out to bat. 19/2
   Deepak Hooda	1	2	0	0	50.00
   st Dinesh Karthik b Wanindu Hasaranga 5.1 Wanindu Hasaranga to Deepak Hooda, OUT! STUMPED! Deepak Hooda has nothing behind the line and Wanindu Hasaranga strikes on the very first ball he bowls in this game. Four down inside the Powerplay and not many teams win after that even if one is chasing a low total. The googly does the trick. This lands outside off and turns back in. Deepak Hooda does not read it and looks to work it on the leg side but misses. Karthik whips the bails off and appeals. It is taken upstairs, they check for the caught behind but no spike on Ultra Edge and Hooda has not made it back in. 27/4
   Marcus Stoinis	13	19	0	1	68.42
   c Suyash Prabhudessai b Karn Sharma 10.4 Karn Sharma to Marcus Stoinis, OUT! TAKEN! Marcus Stoinis falls now. The big fish, the man who Lucknow were reliant on to take them over the line falls. Karan Sharma gets him again. This is tossed up outside off, Marcus Stoinis looks to go over long off, this goes more off the outer half towards long off. Suyash Prabhudessai takes a good catch. Is that the game for Bangalore. NO Rahul yet as Ravi Bishnoi walks out to bat. 65/6
   Nicholas Pooran (Wk)	9	7	0	1	128.57
   c Mahipal Lomror b Karn Sharma 6.6 Karn Sharma to Nicholas Pooran, OUT! TAKEN! Half the side back in the hut and the score is not even 50. The match-winner in the last game, Nicholas Pooran walks back. Bangalore all over Lucknow. They know how big a wicket this is! This is tossed up on the pads, Nicholas Pooran looks to go over the square leg fence, he ius early in the swing, it goes off the toe-end towards deep square leg. It is taken by Mahipal Lomror! 38/5
   Krishnappa Gowtham	23	13	1	2	176.92
   run out (sub) 11.1 Harshal Patel to Krishnappa Gowtham, OUT! RUN OUT! Krishnappa Gowtham is out here now! He is just short. Not sure why did he not put in the dive or stretch better. He would have been in. Lucknow now are 7 down. This is fuller and outside off, it is guided through point. They take one and go for the second, probably becuase Krishnappa Gowtham wanted to strike. Sonu Yadav, the sub, picks the ball up and fires it to the keeper. Karthik whips the bails off. That was a really good throw, flat and not very far away from the stump. He is a pace bowler and hence, he has a good arm. 66/7
   Ravi Bishnoi	5	10	0	0	50.00
   run out (Harshal Patel) 14.4 Mahipal Lomror to Ravi Bishnoi, OUT! RUN OUT! Even the dive does not Ravi Bishnoi! This is on middle, the reverse sweep comes out, it is nailed towards point. Josh Hazlewood leaps and gets a hand to it. It does not stick. Harshal Patel from short third man runs after it. The batters go for two. The throw is to the keeper who whips the bails off. Ravi Bishnoi is well short. 77/8
   Amit Mishra	19	30	2	0	63.33
   c Dinesh Karthik b Harshal Patel 19.5 Harshal Patel to Amit Mishra, OUT! TAKEN! Harshal Patel gets the last wicket. A slower one around off, Amit Mishra looks to go downtown. He is through the shot, way, way too early. Ends up hitting it high up in the air behind the wicket. That shows how early he was into the shot. Dinesh Karthik makes no mistake. Bangalore win by 18 runs! 108/10
   Naveen-ul-Haq	13	13	2	0	100.00
   c Dinesh Karthik b Josh Hazlewood 18.4 Josh Hazlewood to Naveen-ul-Haq, OUT! TAKEN! A boundary and out for Naveen-ul-Haq! Shorter and outside off, Naveen-ul-Haq slashes at it but it goes off the outside edge and it is taken by the keeper. 103/9

12:02 amThat is it from this game then! The Indian T20 League continues on the second of this month. It is Gujarat taking on Delhi. That game begins at 7.30 pm IST (1400 GMT). The build-up though begins a lot earlier. Do join us. Till then, take care and goodbye!

12:01 amFaf du Plessis, MAN OF THE MATCH, says the wicket here and the wicket back home are the complete opposite. Reckons they played well in the Powerplay and that is what was the difference. Also adds, batting first was better, spinners were difficult to face and it is pretty hard to score if the bowlers hit the right lines and lengths. Mentions, he feels 135 would have been a good score as the nature of the wicket was very tough. Also says they needed early wickets in the Powerplay and got it. Credits the way Josh Hazlewood and Karn Sharma bowled and says he is super happy for the latter as he has been brilliant whenever picked.

11:49 pm... PRESENTATION TIME ...

11:54 pmKrunal Pandya, the stand-in captain of Lucknow, is up for a chat. He says the bowling was really good from their side but the batters were not upto the mark yet again. Informs he does not know how bad Rahul's injury was but they are keeping a close watch.

11:54 pmFor Lucknow, it was yet another poor performance with the bat. Just one batter managed to cross the 20-run mark and that was Krishnappa Gowtham. When you lose by 18 runs chasing just 126 that indicates how poor one side was with the bat. Their bowlers did brilliantly in the first half to restrict a powerful batting line-up to a low score but their batters were equally poor and in the end, it is yet another loss for them at their home ground.

11:53 pmThat is some bowling performance from Bangalore. 126 was not such a big total, despite the wicket being extremely slow and Lucknow not having Rahul but the Bangalore bowlers were exceptional. Also, credit to Faf du Plessis who was excellent with his captaincy as well. It was Siraj who started things off with a wicket in the first over and Josh Hazlewood did his job from the other end. Faf's change of bowlers also worked brilliantly as whoever he got on, managed to deliver. When you defend 126, you need all your bowlers to do a good job and that was exactly the case for Bangalore. Except for Mahipal Lomror, all the bowlers got a wicket at least.
