After losing two wickets early, RCB recovered courtesy of brilliant fifties from skipper Faf du Plessis and Glenn Maxwell. At one stage, after 14 overs RCB were looking 145/4. In came Karthik and he took matters into his hand after du Plessis' departure as Cameron Green got him caught in the short fine leg region. Just when the visitors needed to accelerate their run rate, Karthik showed his batting prowess and hitting skills. In the event so far his bat has remained silent but today the veteran keeper-batter came up good at the Wankhede. In the 18th over, he smashed Kartikeya for 15 runs to take his side past the 180-run mark.
Although, he was looking good with the bat the veteran batter looked pale and unwell while getting back to the pavilion post and getting dismissed to Chris Jordan.

Suryakumar Yadav scored a magnificent 83 off 35 balls with seven fours and six maximums.
