RCB 141-2 (13 Ovs) vs GT 205-3 | SCORECARD

Jason Holder returns to the attack and delivers a tight over, giving away just 3 runs. After a flurry of big hits earlier, a bit of calm is restored. After 12 overs, Royal Challengers Bengaluru are 134 for 1, needing 72 from 48 balls.

Rashid Khan is back into the attack, and Virat Kohli starts positively, beating the fielder for a boundary--helped by a misfield from Prasidh Krishna. Kohli then drills one down to long-off for a single, with both batters rotating strike comfortably.

But Rashid strikes back in style--showing his class with a beautifully disguised googly. Devdutt Padikkal fails to pick it and is cleaned up after a superb 55 off 27 balls.

RCB slip to 141 for 2 after 13 overs.
