Good comeback from Chakaravarthy in that over. He gave away just two off the first four balls. Then got hit for a six. But he hit back by having Shahbaz stumped. 8 runs and a wicket off the over.
SIX and OUT! Chakaravarthy strikes back. After being hit for a SIX, he has Shahbaz stumped. Shahbaz charges down and swings wildly, misses as the ball spins away. Jackson whips the bails off in a flash.
SIX! Nicely done by Shahbaz. Good use of the feet. Charges down, converts it into a full toss and cracks it over deep mid-wicket.

IPL 2022, RCB vs KKR Live
A couple of tight overs. Umesh Yadav is brought back and he bowls a tight over. But doesn’t manage to get a wicket. He gives away just four runs. Then Southee is brough back into the attack and he too bowls a decent over, conceding just four runs. 36 needed off 30 balls. Still pretty much RCB’s game to lose.
NOT OUT! Huge appeal for a caught behind. Southee and keeper are convinced but the umpire isn’t. He doesn’t move. KKR opt for a review but replays show there was no spike. KKR lose a review.

SIX! Two sixes in the over. Shahbaz swings another one over deep square leg, off Russell.
SIX! Hammered! Good length delivery outside off, Shahbaz heaves it over deep mid-wicket for a maximum.

Narine is bowling a brilliant spell. He’s had figures of 3-0-8-1. He breaks the Rutherford-Willey partnership and gives away just 3 runs in the 11th over. Chakaravarthy has erred in between with his lengths and again drops one short, Rutherford cuts it for FOUR. 8 runs off the over. 11 runs and a wicket off the last two overs.
FOUR! A touch short outside off from Chakaravarthy, Rutherford cuts it throuhg point.
