15.4
Arshdeep Singh to Kohli, 2 runs, chance of a run-out missed! A big mixup on that occasion. Kohli had nudged this through the leg-side and his call was for two straightaway. Patidar wasn't keen for the second but Kohli was almost back for the second when Patidar was stranded. The throw at the bowler's end was a wayward one and that allows the RCB captain get back to the bowler's end. He survives. Could have been a disaster of a run-out. Iyer was the man backing up who couldn't fire a direct-hit

5.5
Marco Jansen to Kohli, 2 runs, just enough to clear the man! Full on off-stump, Kohli looked to go over mid-off and didn't get hold of it at all, chipped it high and just had enough to clear Shreyas Iyer who was running back

1.6
Bartlett to Kohli, no run, PBKS review! Loud shout for lbw was turned down. Full and straight on middle-leg, Kohli planted his front-foot early and had to play around it, it went past the inside edge and hit the front-pad just below the knee-roll, that always looked like it was heading down leg and Hawkeye confirms the same - missing leg-stump. Review lost!
