लखनऊ vs बेंगलुरु मैच आँकड़े

On that in-between length, around off, Jitesh Sharma drives it on the up and wide of mid off for a single.

A good save from Ayush Badoni! Saves a certain boundary! Slower ball, outside off, full in length. Mayank Agarwal is early through his shot, trying to loft it over mid off, but slices it off the outer half of the bat and goes over backward point. Ayush Badoni gives it a chase and dives forward as he flicks the ball in with his right hand before tumbling into the ropes. Three taken.

SIX! SMASHED! Full and on off, Jitesh Sharma prods forward and lofts it cleanly over cover for a cracking six.

FOUR! Innovative and mighty effective. A low full toss, on off, Jitesh Sharma switches the stance and reverse laps it over short third for a boundary.

A comedy of errors from both sides! Back of a length, outside off, Jitesh Sharma cuts it late to short third. Mayank Agarwal rushes through for a single, but there is a bit of a miscommunication between the batters as Jitesh Sharma is found ball-watching, but soon realises and sprints to the other end. Meanwhile, Digvesh Singh fires a flat throw towards the bowler where Will O'Rourke is almost halfway on the pitch. Also, Jitesh Sharma is struggling to reach the other end, but Will O'Rourke's fumble to collect the throw allows him the room to get home safely. A single. Risky one.

Length ball, on off, lofted over mid off. A fumble at long off allows the batters to cross over for the second run. A frustrating over for Lucknow Super Giants, to say the least, as 17 runs come off it. Royal Challengers Bengaluru need 72 runs in 36 balls.

FOUR! Dear, oh dear! This is sloppy from LSG! Short of a length, outside off, Jitesh Sharma rocks back and cuts it through the point region. Will O'Rourke runs across to his left but just doesn't bend much low to pick up. The ball evades him, through the legs and into the fence.

Full ball, at the stumps, Jitesh Sharma sweeps it to deep fine leg for a couple of runs. A good save from Ravi Bishnoi this time as he sprints and slides to his right from deep backward square leg to intercept it.

SIX! Goodness gracious! This is a shot and a half from Jitesh! Slows it up, does Shahbaz, on a fuller length, around off, Jitesh Sharma skips down the track and tonks it inside out over extra cover for a huge six.

FOUR! Perfectly placed! On middle and full in length, almost a half volley. Jitesh Sharma sweeps it aerially over square leg and gets a boundary. Jitesh Sharma playing a true captain's knock here. 56 needed off 32 now!

A muted appeal for LBW from Pant, but not given. The bowler, Shahbaz Ahamad is not convinced and Pant walks to chat with him. The bowler gestures that the glove is involved. Landed fuller and on the stumps, Jitesh Sharma switches the stance to play the reverse, but only manages to get it grazed off the glove. The ball rolls between the backward point and the short third region for a single.

MISFIELD, FOUR! These lapses in the field are not helping LSG's cause here, but what a cracking shot that is! A mighty expensive over as 21 runs come off it! Could be a game-changing one this! On a length, and outside off, Agarwal rocks back and cuts this through point. The fielder, Will O'Rourke, throws himself to his left, but is a bit late to react to it. The ball races away into the fence at deep backward point.

Pitches the ball up straight and at the base of middle stump, Sharma drills it down to long off for one.

Full again, in the blockhole and outside off, smacked away through covers for one more.

Wide! Banged in halfway down the track and outside off, Jitesh Sharma tries to get under it and scoop but the ball flies over his head. Rishabh Pant has a real think about it and reviews the wide call. The third umpire checks the ball tracker and finds that the ball was well over the batter's head and it stays as a WIDE.

FOUR! That has been nailed! Misses the yorker on off by a few inches and Jitesh Sharma hits through the line, hammering it to the right of long off for a boundary.

FOUR! Another slower one, slightly pitched up and outside off. Sharma waits well and hits it over the cover region for yet another boundary.

A quick short ball, banged in outside off and flying through at a good height. Jitesh looks to uppercut but misses.

Full and tailing it in towards middle and leg, JItesh hangs deep and nearly swings himself with the ball down to long on for a single.

NO BALL! Would you believe it? Digvesh Singh seemed to have sent Jitesh Sharma back to the pavilion, but he's ended up bowling a back foot no ball and the stand-in skipper for RCB gets a huge life at a crucial stage. This is tossed up on the stumps. Jitesh brings out the reverse sweep but miscues it in front of point where the fielder, Ayush Badoni, dives forward and takes the low catch. Free Hit loading...

SIX and FIFTY! Cricket can be an unforgiving game at times and LSG are learning that the hard way. This is bowled full and on middle, right in the slot. Jitesh Sharma clears the front leg and whacks it deep into the stands over deep mid-wicket for a biggie. A maiden IPL 50 for Jitesh and it couldn't have come at a better time.

Into the pitch, bowled across off, Jitesh reaches out and taps it wide of covers for a single.

Fuller one, outside off, driven down to long off for one more by Mayank.

Well bowled! Or is it? Jitesh Sharma has reviewed it for a wide. Quicker one from around the wicket, darted well across off. Jitesh Sharma reaches out and then leaves it alone and a fair delivery is called. The third umpire checks the revised guideline and finds that some part of the ball is inside that line. No Wide!

Dragged length on middle and leg, punched away through mid off for a single.

Shortish length on the pads, nudged away just wide of short fine leg for a single and the 200 is up for RCB. 28 needed now in 3 overs!

Short and wide, outside off, Mayank Agarwal slaps it away flat and on the bounce to deep cover-point for a single.

FOUR! Nicely done by Jitesh! Banged in short again and outside off, Jitesh waits back and ramps it over short third for a boundary.

Short of a length, around off, Jitesh Sharma looks to pull but misses.

FOUR! SMASHED! Incredible shot from Jitesh! Pitched right up, full and on off, Jitesh Sharma gets his front foot out of the way and carves it over cover for a cracking boundary.

SIX! LONG ENOUGH! This is just brilliant batsmanship! A slower bumper from Will O'Rourke, around off, Jitesh Sharma hits it with a flat bat and clobbers it downtown for a cracking six.

SIX! THAT HAS BEEN LAUNCHED! Offered right in the slot from Will O'Rourke, at the stumps, Jitesh Sharma picks the length in a trice and smokes this over deep mid-wicket for a mammoth six.

Fired full and on leg, Mayank Agarwal drills it down to long on for a single.

Flat and full, again the line is on the leg stump, Jitesh Sharma steers it between mid on and mid-wicket for a couple of runs.

From around the stumps, angled across off, on a length. Jitesh Sharma leaves it alone. Not a Wide as it is clearly inside the tramline.

SIX! JITESH SHARMA HAS DONE IT IN STYLE! Incredible scenes here at Ekana as Royal Challengers Bengaluru pull off an absolute heist! This is their highest successful run chase in IPL history, and also the third highest successful chase in this tournament now! Ayush Badoni serves this straight into the wheelhouse, around the middle and leg stump. Jitesh Sharma reads the length perfectly and sits down on a knee to sweep it powerfully behind deep square leg for a massive six. RCB win by 6 wickets, and 8 balls to spare. RCB has also become the only team to have won all their away games. They maintain a clean slate on the road, winning seven out of seven, and the only team in the IPL to do so! The celebrations begin in the RCB dugout!
