Winning the toss, Virat Kohli went for field aspiring to restrict the host with a decent total and to chase it down with ease. Eventually RCB was looking a bit stiff as KKR got off a great start with Gambhir and Narine. The show of this duo came to its end with the dismissal of Gambhir. Starting from Gambhir the entire batting line up started to fall with their short cameo which led the team to the total of 131 at the cusp of their innings.

Virat kohli led side with the target of 131 seemed a bit confident to steal the show but as the game began the whole RCB got bundled out through the hands of Nathan Coulter Nile, Chris Woakes and DE Grandhomme with the record lowest total of 49. RCB a team comprising with players like Chrish Gayle, Virat Kohli, AB De Velliers only upstaged the total of 49. With kohli’s duck and Gayle’s lost tracked performance, RCB exhibited a major area for themselves to ponder on. In Kohli’s word this was the disastrous batting performance they have ever come across in the last 10 years of IPL.
