00:00And we are in Angawad, home to so many great games, as we celebrate the last step in a wonderful journey that celebrates the biggest league, and as we saw a little while ago, so beautifully, one that celebrates India.
00:16There will be a new winner today. It's RCB with nine playoffs. Up against Punjab Kings, they've played a great campaign, but only two playoffs. And this is what they will fight for, where talent meets opportunity.
00:32This is where he wants to be. An out with number 18. New status in life. New. All the anxiety that now was dead, it just takes the pressure.
00:58I'm going to take my wickets. So there would have been some rest of the team. You want to concentrate as a...
01:08A little bit of swing, but it's a wide. So the scoreboard is moving for RCB.
01:16Place the shot. Just over and stays it going to be their day. Six inches more, there's a wicket.
01:23But this is six for Salt and RCB.
01:29Well, he's not going to stop playing his shots just because they're afield as well.
01:36Back for two.
01:38He's played the same way throughout the entire...
01:41Daddy luck, you think?
01:43He does. And he plays it beautifully. He plays it much finer.
01:46And he started off in great style as of RCB 13.
01:52Yeah, this is smart, buddy. I think it's full bowling.
01:55The execution is nowhere near where he wants it. It's too straight.
01:59Opens up.
02:01Shot again, but the bounces all over the right shoulder this time.
02:0513.
02:07Off the mark, straight away.
02:10He's away, Virat Kohli.
02:12Going to be very good, but...
02:14A pose note.
02:17Who goes over Mid-Arm.
02:21Salt boundary.
02:23And he's off to a start in this final.
02:26It's a very good shot.
02:28Calculated shot.
02:30If it's pitched up at the Mid-Arm, Mid-Arm, in the 30m circle.
02:33I tell you what, if he's got any nerves at all, he's camouflaged them very well.
02:41TV! TV!
02:42TV!
02:43Adrian!
02:45Straight up, straight up.
02:47Backpedaling, not easy.
02:49Shreyas Aiyar takes the catch.
02:56He's bubbled, but the bubble is broken.
03:00Salt has to go.
03:01It's gone for 16, 18, 4, 131 matches.
03:04Lots of experience.
03:07Oh, the edge, it falls short.
03:09And they'll sneak the single in.
03:11Six of the Jameis Anova and a...
03:15Gets it over the infield.
03:17Not sure the timing's great, so back for two.
03:19He's just a multiple now.
03:20This time he's got all of it.
03:26Mayang Agarwal hits brilliantly straight down the ground.
03:30A second...
03:31Gleder's it fine enough for four, into the pads.
03:36Fielder on the boundary was still square.
03:38It's too straight to Virat Kohli.
03:40Genius off his pads.
03:42Gets it very fine.
03:44A man at deep backwards square instead of fine legs.
03:47So he knows he can go finer.
03:50And he'll get a boundary.
03:54These easy singles.
03:56That should not pick about fielding.
03:58We talk about fielding.
04:00Now, did the pitch report a bit earlier and they've lost the one wicket.
04:04I think this is the right approach.
04:08There's a fielder there.
04:09Will you get Biddon?
04:10He does for four more.
04:12He loves to play that square out of the wicket shot.
04:15And this is a very good shot.
04:17It's all timing.
04:19Holds his position.
04:20He knows there's a man out of deep point.
04:22And there's a catcher inside.
04:26From a batter's perspective.
04:27And he can go.
04:29The 16 innings here.
04:30That's 200's been breached.
04:31Get trapped.
04:34That's up in the air.
04:38And...
04:39Ace kicked it over the line.
04:42Didn't quite get it.
04:46With his knee there.
04:47A little knock.
04:48Goes over the rope.
04:51That's for a boundary for everyone.
04:53I do love the one.
04:57First qualifier.
04:58And that's been blown away in the power.
05:02That's up in the air.
05:04Straight down the cloak.
05:06Up the man at square leg.
05:08And as he often does, Sean Hunt.
05:11And he gets a wicket.
05:13And this time in his forced over.
05:15With the frame.
05:18There you want the main goal.
05:20Mayanka Karwal.
05:22Walks back for 24.
05:23Losens up.
05:29Two is the call.
05:30Should get it easily.
05:31Ravir was there.
05:35Oh, what timing.
05:36It's a top shot at the rest of it to the boundary.
05:45I saw Agarwal play one of these shots a little earlier, but it was actually much squarer.
05:50...about the shot and it being an absolute...
05:57...and also to the point that you made in the previous, the pressure of the final and sometimes...
06:01...but you've got a margin now of potential...
06:05...right, Patidar is the one who's taking on the bowling.
06:11The fine player of spin bowling.
06:14Yes, the captain.
06:16Captain saying, I've got to take the responsibility, I've got to show how it's done.
06:21...that have got man of the match.
06:23Not just having a glimpse of this now, folks, right?
06:26Now he finds the boundary.
06:30A well-controlled shot, waited on it.
06:33Maybe Umarza has given away his length with the previous three balls that he's bowled.
06:38Yes, I think a lot of bowlers think that if they bowled this ball, they will be able to deceive the batter.
06:45Coley goes over, or Patidar goes over.
06:49There I said that was Coley-esque.
06:54But Patidar it is who's getting a move on.
06:57Yes, lovely shot. Very.
07:01Very.
07:03How close?
07:04Finger goes up, and the batter's working.
07:06And once again, it's Jameson who in the middle overs has produced a wicket.
07:10And you've got to say, good captaincy also for three in the eleventh over.
07:16Patidar, Patidar, gonna have to go.
07:19If Coley's gonna play, these bar hitters.
07:21There he goes, straight away.
07:25Down the ground for six.
07:27So the message loud and clear in that brick.
07:29Take the attack to the opposition.
07:32Gets the bull by the horns now.
07:34Angel one, super six there.
07:38Yes, you could see Livingston was the one having the conversation in the...
07:43Let's make this count.
07:46Coley goes onside and splits the field.
07:51So just what the doctor ordered after the brick.
07:54Six and now boundary ball, Virat Coley.
07:57Various Shepard, look at that strike rate three.
08:00Back of the length, a lot of slower stuff.
08:03That's up in the air.
08:07And it's a good catch.
08:10Again, the plan executed to perfection.
08:13It was short, short, short to Virat Coley.
08:16One peep, Punjab Kings of 43 and a score of 131 for...
08:20That is shorter.
08:22Top edge.
08:26Just beats the keeper.
08:34Yes, you need a bit of luck.
08:39Oh, that's beautifully played.
08:42Very powerful.
08:46Absolute classic out from Jitesh.
08:48He's in terrific form.
08:50He was so destructive in RCV's last outing.
08:53He could do those six tonight.
08:59Brilliant.
09:01Jitesh Sharma has hit a six.
09:04So fine on the onside.
09:09Wow.
09:10Now straight down.
09:11This is brilliant batting.
09:12180 degrees in the other direction.
09:13He's a round of wicket player, this man.
09:14Suddenly, we have a game.
09:15Straight to play.
09:17Now, Liam Livingston is in RCV have come to this final.
09:2321 of this over and a couple of balls left.
09:26They're going after Kyle Jamieson.
09:28He's been pretty.
09:29And it's the RCV.
09:3020.
09:31How close.
09:32Off goes the finger.
09:34He's just looking back.
09:35Livingston.
09:36He's just looking back.
09:37Livingston.
09:38And it's the RCV.
09:3920.
09:40How close?
09:41Off goes the finger.
09:43He's just looking back.
09:44Livingston.
09:45Jitesh has taken as wicket.
09:46Just what needed.
09:47But guess what?
09:49Oh but not this time.
09:50Not this time.
09:51The bells light up.
09:52The stunts light up.
09:54Jitesh has played.
09:55A fine little innings but it's a snap.
09:56He's been playing for a second.
09:57He's been pretty...
09:58And it's the RCV 20.
09:59Oh.
10:00How close?
10:01Oh, of course the finger.
10:02He's just looking back.
10:03Livingston.
10:04Jitesh has taken as wicket.
10:05Just one needed but guess what?
10:07Oh, but not this time.
10:08Not this time.
10:10The bells light up.
10:11The stumps light up.
10:12Jitesh has played a fine little innings but it's a second.
10:13A fine little innings, but it's a little one.
10:171.71 for six.
10:21Vishak, Shepard in strike.
10:25Short but fine leg had come up, and so he gets a four.
10:29The fear of him hitting down the ground has produced the space at fine leg.
10:35Still superb bowling though, great bowling plans.
10:38That's why we're saying that...
10:40This is huge! This is Shepard!
10:46And it doesn't matter how big...
10:49Balls the full ball, finger goes up, nobody's...
10:53Oh, he's reviewing it as he walks off.
10:58Nathan Stoutfielders rituals.
11:00And reviewed it.
11:04Has he connected that? There's a man down at Longhorn.
11:07Shreya Sajir takes the catch.
11:10The wickets are falling at the end, but they've got 189 on the board.
11:15200 looks very distant.
11:17This is an egg.
11:19Kunal Pandya gone.
11:21Can he finish well? I don't think he can.
11:23It's straight up in the air to the fielder.
11:25And another wicket goes down.
11:26Three wickets for Ashdeep at the end.
11:28The Royal Challengers finish 109.
11:31The end of the day, as we've been saying, it's...
11:33A lot of tricks.
11:36It's Bhubaneshwar Kumar can swing that to take two or three wickets in these first...
11:40Where the body language in the field at the end...
11:42We see the impacts off quickly.
11:45Some...
11:47And of course that is...
11:49They're full of...
11:51One advantage I'll say when you...
11:53Aria or...
11:54Here we go.
11:55And Faust runs up.
11:59Chest drifting onto the pads.
12:01That's raced away through the fence.
12:03And Punjab on their way.
12:05Yeah, two straight.
12:07Little loosen up from the experience.
12:09Bhubaneshwar Kumar in swing.
12:11So that's really hot.
12:12It was his hottest...
12:13World of RCB.
12:14They'll be clued.
12:18That's in the air.
12:19Third man.
12:20Over him.
12:22Just over him.
12:27That's in the air.
12:28In the gap.
12:29And fourth.
12:33Yeah, width was on offer.
12:35On this occasion.
12:36Length was hard.
12:38And into the wicket.
12:40Checked it out.
12:41Aria one-sheet 207.
12:42What an import for it.
12:47Up in the air.
12:49And will land safely.
12:54A lot of noise today in this crowd.
12:59He was looking for space.
13:02And as it turns out.
13:03He's got it for four.
13:05Because this was a very decent last 12-13 balls for RCB.
13:09So he had...
13:12Up top.
13:13But this one.
13:14Much more convincing.
13:15Much more in control.
13:17And much more intentional from Drianj.
13:24With Hazelwood sometimes.
13:26You can predict the length.
13:27Because he's...
13:31There's a pick up shot.
13:32But there's a fielder there.
13:34He's taken it.
13:35He has taken it.
13:36Phil Sowell.
13:37He might have turned this game.
13:38That is a stunner.
13:39And you can see everybody.
13:40Three for one.
13:41Drianj is bad.
13:42But 24.
13:46Connects.
13:47This time going over the ropes.
13:49Once again a fielder was loitering there.
13:52But he had no chance.
13:53And Inglis.
13:56Has got a 6.50 comes up.
13:57There's a shot.
13:58And it's off.
14:00And it's off.
14:01And it's off.
14:06Wide fielder there.
14:07This time it goes over.
14:08He's such a good player of the back foot.
14:09To that shot.
14:10Because he stays low.
14:11He's able to hit it over so well.
14:12And also from a Suyash point of view.
14:14As a bowler you're constantly thinking...
14:16...which he is like.
14:17He's able to hit it over.
14:18He's been able to hit it over so well.
14:19And also from a Suyash point of view.
14:20As a bowler you're constantly thinking.
14:22...with Shastra.
14:26...likely shot.
14:27Back through the onside.
14:30No timing on this.
14:33...very safe pair of bag.
14:35It's Prof Simran.
14:37Yeah.
14:38This pass he'll be straight away after the brick.
14:39...80
14:40So mixing...
14:43...it's being pumped through the onside.
14:45onside he's so quick on anything short and Romano Sheppard doesn't start well
14:51can't afford to miss English or both these batters they're in for their
14:56exceptional last night English plays so well off as you mentioned Ravi very
15:04nicely go
15:07taken edge and straight into the hands of the wicket keeper you did mention that it
15:16is going to be a big moment it has turned out to be Shreyasaya in two balls and suddenly the stir
15:23shot and it's been pumped flat and you can see Virat Kohli at deep mid wicket but happy
15:31he's the one who started putting the brakes on the school
15:38just a lot as wickets falling around him he'll play his natural game he'll have the confidence to look for that boundary so from RCV's point of view on delivery left
15:48yes sir no praise it too high for someone like Prunal Pandya at the moment he might have gone
16:01one for six of that first ball pace
16:08shot and then once again his favorite area
16:15well they're not learning I said it's bread and butter for him yes you might hold out in the deep but that's an area of extreme strength for someone like English
16:25in up to English English goes down
16:32could this be the match
16:38Liam Livingston on the boundary
16:40judge to his position super timing super catch that can that can they buy a wicket here
