FOUR! This time, behind square and Smriti picks up another four. Tryon stays around the wicket and this goes across the left-hander. Mandhana makes use of the angle and guides it between backward point and short third. 100 comes up for RCB.

FOUR! Easy pickings! A hat-trick of fours for the RCB skipper. Chloe errs in line on a full ball. Sprays it on the pads, Mandhana does not miss out as she sweeps it past short fine leg for another boundary.

Shorter and quicker, on off, Mandhana looks to use the pace and run it down. It is cut off by the sliding short third fielder. They cross.

Flat and short, on off, Harris punches it to long off for a single. 15 runs off Tryon's first over.

OUT! CASTLED! End of a knock of high quality from Grace Harris. Shikha returns to the attack and bowls it on a back of a length. She keeps the stumps in play, but the ball stays a bit low. Harris ends up playing all around it as she tries to clip it away on the leg side. It sneaks past the inside edge and shatters the stumps. Harris falls after scoring a well-made 75. 36 needed more, off 65 balls.

Full and on middle, driven to mid on by Voll.

On a length, on middle and leg, Georgia works it behind square on the leg side for a single to get off the mark.

On a back of a length, outside off, Mandhana guides it behind point and crosses over.

Make it 4 dot balls. Flatter arm ball on middle, Voll stands opened up in her stance as she defends it from the back foot.

FOUR! That will break the monotony of dot balls. Flighted around off and skidding in, Voll shuffles across the stumps and uses the pace nicely, paddling it fine past the keeper and down to the fine leg fence.

Fullish and on middle, Voll eases it down to long on for a run. 24 needed off 54 balls.

Pandey serves a length ball, around off, Voll again walks across the stumps for the paddle shot but doesn't middle it properly. This time it comes off from the top part of the blade and lobs behind the keeper. They get two runs.

SIX! Smriti Mandhana has nailed that. Short on middle and sitting up nicely, she swivels quickly and unleashes a powerful pull, sending it soaring over square leg. A statement shot as RCB continue to show their full range.

Angling away from the batter, on a shorter length, Smriti forces it to deep cover for a run.

Pandey lands it on a length around middle and leg, and Voll once again goes for the paddle, guiding it down to fine leg. It races away and the fielder does well near the rope to pull it back. The third umpire checks and confirms it is clean. Just a single taken. Nine needed now.

Turning in from around off, Mandhana goes back and defends it to the off side.

FIFTY FOR MANDHANA! Off just 26 balls, her second half-century this season. Floated and full, around off, Smriti runs down the track and eases it to long off for a run.

OUT! CAUGHT! Just as the scores are level, a wicket falls. Tossed up, full and around middle with a hint of turn away, Voll comes down the track looking for a big heave over the leg side but only manages a top edge. It balloons towards mid off, where Simran Shaikh settles under it and takes the catch cleanly. This will only delay the inevitable.

FOUR! RCB ARE IN THE FINAL! Flighted, full and outside off with a hint of turn away, Smriti Mandhana gets down on one knee, fetches it from outside off and powers the sweep over mid-wicket for the winning runs. Royal Challengers Bengaluru seal the chase with an eight-wicket victory, with 41 balls to spare.
