LSG 19-0 (2 ovs) vs RCB | Scorecard

Quinton de Kock and K L Rahul are the two openers for LSG, while Reece Topley opens the bowling for RCB in his first game of the season.

Left-hander de Kock on strike as he taps the first ball into the off-side before he is beaten next ball as Topley gets some away movement to past the outside edge.

A good bouncer from Topley as de Kock swings wildly but the top edge flies over the wicketkeeper for a boundary to get LSG off the mark.

The next ball is again short and de Kock swing and misses before he drills the fifth ball through the covers for a four.

The last ball is short and wide and this time de Kock slaps it past point for the third four of the over.

Yash Dayal from the other end. Rahul drives the first ball into the covers as Kohli makes a diving stop to save the boundary.

Rahul clips the next ball for a single before de Kock plays a beautiful cover drive for a boundary followed by singles off the last two balls.
