Musheer Khan to Mayank AgarwalOUT! TAKEN! Musheer Khan gets a wicket! Something to smile about for PBKS! This is fired in full and down the leg side. Mayank Agarwal is out of his crease and looks to flick but misses as the ball passes very close to his bat. It deflects off the keeper's glove and loops up as Shreyas Iyer from first slip moves forward and takes the catch. There is a shout for dismissal. The two umpires get together and send it upstairs. UltraEdge shows a clear spike when the ball passes the toe-end of the bat and the replay shows that the ball has not pitched after hitting the bat. The catch is also cleanand Agarwal has to walk back here.

Right then, a game that promised so much but turned out to be a one-sided affair, with RCB delivering a thumping win to book their place in the IPL final for the fourth time. Their opponent will be decided over the coming days. Next up is the Eliminator in Mullanpur on Friday, 30th May, where the Gujarat Titans face the Mumbai Indians. The winner will head to Ahmedabad to take on the Punjab Kings in Qualifier 2 for a spot in the final, while the loser will bow out of the tournament. The first ball will be bowled at 7.30 pm IST (2 pm GMT), but as always, we will be here well in advance to bring you all the build-up. Until then, take care and goodbye!
STRATEGIC BREAK! Just the formalities left to be completed here in Mullanpur. RCB are a mere 10 runs away from sealing their first IPL final appearance since 2016 and what a night it’s been for them. In stark contrast, it’s been a night to forget for Shreyas Iyer and his men, one they will want to quickly move past as they shift focus to Qualifier 2.
The captain of RCB, Rajat Patidar, walks out to bat.
Gone? Was there bat involved? If yes, did it go down onto the turf after hitting the bat? A couple of questions that need to be answered here. Yes, there is a spike, confirming that it did go off the bat. And it went directly onto the gloves of the keeper before it lobbed towards first slip. OUT!
Mayank Agarwal walks out to bat at number 3. He is the Impact Sub for RCB and replaces Suyash Sharma.
Kyle Jamieson to bowl from the other end.
