RCB bring in their Impact Player - Suyash Sharma replaces Devdutt Padikkal and is into the attack right away. Jacks and Suryakumar Yadav- a short ball outside off, SKY throws his hands at it and almost slices it to backward point, but it lands just in front of Krunal Pandya.
A huge appeal for a caught-behind follows soon after, but the umpire stays unmoved. RCB opt to review - just in time. The replays show the ball has missed the bat, merely brushing the back thigh, and the impact is well outside the line '" RCB lose their review. SKY collects another single towards midwicket, and a quiet over ends with just 5 singles.
After 7 overs, MI are 59 for 2, needing 163 from 78 balls.
Krunal Pandya joins the attack from the other end - spin from both ends now.
Jacks starts with a single, and then SKY shows his class - back-to-back boundaries, one lofted over cover and the other swept with finesse. He adds another single to backward point, and Jacks joins the party with a boundary of his own, driven hard and flat. A dot ball ends the over, but the momentum is shifting.
14 runs off the over - after 8, MI are 73 for 2.The required rate is still steep, but SKY is starting to settle in.
