But he holed out at deep square leg to Sunil Narine•BCCI

...and then reached his fifty in 15 balls - equalling the IPL record•BCCI

Over all though, it was a tough day for Royal Challengers as they were beaten with six wickets and 29 balls to spare•BCCI

Piyush Chawla dropped Virat Kohli in the third over; luckily for him, Umesh dismissed Kohli next ball•BCCI

Rain halted play just as the Royal Challengers batsmen started to find their footing•BCCI

A late surge from Travis Head, who finished on 75 off 47 balls, took Royal Challengers to 158 for 6•BCCI

Chris Lynn was not far behind as Knight Riders amassed 105 runs in the Powerplay - another IPL record •BCCI

Upon resumption, Mandeep Singh completed his first IPL fifty since 2015•BCCI

Sunil Narine welcomed Samuel Badree with three consecutive sixes to give Knight Riders a flying start...•BCCI
