| OUT |
| Over | Event |
| 0.2 | 0.2 Watson to Dravid, out Caught by Jadeja at fine leg!! Banged in short, Dravid looks to pull, not enough power in that shot, too much of elevation and he holes out in the deep, the fielder in the deep didn't have to move an inch on that occasion, golden duck for the Royal Challengers' skipper!!! Dravid c Jadeja b Watson 0(1) |
| 2.2 | 2.2 Watson to Chanderpaul, out Caught by Jadeja at square third man!! Slightly short outside the off stump, Chanderpaul throws his bat wildly at it, slices it high up in the air, finds the same man as Rahul Dravid did, straight down Jadeja's throat in the deep, both the openers are back now... Chanderpaul c Jadeja b Watson 2(9) |
| 6.3 | 6.3 Trivedi to Kallis, out Caught by Munaf at backward square leg!! Short on the middle and leg, Kallis goes on the backfoot and looks to swat it across the line, holes out in the deep, end of a short burst from Kallis! Kallis c Munaf b Trivedi 11(11) <4s-2> |
| 7.2 | 7.2 Munaf to Taylor, out Caught by Smith at deep mid wicket!! Short delivery on the middle and leg, Taylor pulls it again, this time straight down the throat of the fielder in the deep, end of the man who was responsible for all the fireworks, Munaf acts as the fire estinguisher!!! Taylor c Smith b Munaf 44(19) <4s-6 6s-3> |
| 9.4 | 9.4 Munaf to Kohli, out Caught by Rawat!! Short delivery on the stumps, Kohli backs away and looks to slash it away, thin edge and the keeper pouches it safely, end of Kohli! Kohli c Rawat b Munaf 13(14) <6s-1> |
| 11.4 | 11.4 Warne to Boucher, out Caught by Rawat!! Wrong un from Warne this time, pitches on the off and curves back into the right hander, Boucher looks to drive, inside edge goes straight onto the keeper's pad, lobs up and he is very alert to the situation, takes it on the rebound, end of Boucher and Warne has struck in his first over yet again!!! Boucher c Rawat b Warne 4(10) |
| 13.6 | 13.6 Warne to Joshi, out Joshi Run Out!! Flattish delivery on the middle and leg, Joshi clips it behind square on the leg side, sets off for a quick single but sent back at the last moment, Joshi is lazy to get back, the stumps are broken and Joshi is inches short! sloppy work from the batsman... Joshi run out (Tanvir/Rawat) 3(8) |
| 19.2 | 19.2 Watson to Praveen, out Praveen Run Out!! Short rising delivery from Watson, Praveen looks to slash and misses, Zaheer sets off for a quick single and Praveen comes out as well, he just couldn't get going on that occasion, Watson hits the stumps easily at the bowler's end, end of Praveen!

| SIX |
| Over | Event |
| 1.5 | 1.5 Tanvir to Taylor, SIX!!, overpitched on the stumps, Taylor picks it up so very cleanly and thumps it downtown, lofted over the sightscreen for a biggie, the best shot of the whole day so far!!! absolutely plundered that with so much elegance... |
| 1.6 | 1.6 Tanvir to Taylor, SIX!!, short on the middle and leg, Taylor shapes up to pull, top edges it over third man for another biggie, not where he intended to hit it, runs all the same and Taylor won't mind at all! |
| 5.5 | 5.5 Munaf to Taylor, SIX!!, full on the stumps, Taylor kneels down and gets under the ball nicely, hoicks it way over mid wicket, going going and gone, bye bye ball, lands into the second tier of the stands, 112 meters covered on that occasion, levels Yusuf Pathan for the longest six of this edition!!! |
| 8.4 | 8.4 Trivedi to Kohli, SIX!!, fullish delivery on the middle and leg, Kohli comes down the track and hoists it miles up in the sky, hangs up there for ages altogether, Jadeja at the edge of the fence judges it really well, takes an absolute stunner, maintains the balance but touches the ropes as he tries to get up, really unfortunate, fantastic effort in the end though!!! |
| 12.4 | 12.4 Yusuf Pathan to Praveen, SIX!!, lobbed up on the stumps, Praveen comes on the frontfoot and gets under it nicely, hoists it over the bowler's head, straight down the ground for a biggie, the distance travelled on that occasion was whopping, monstrous hit!!! |
| 15.2 | 15.2 Warne to Praveen, SIX!!, Warne tosses it up on the stumps, Praveen gets under it nicely, goes for a big swing again, went miles up in the air, lofted straight down the ground for a biggie! just cleared the fence... |
| 15.3 | 15.3 Warne to Praveen, SIX!!, Praveen hits out with a lot of conviction this time, clobbered over long on for back to back sixes now! lovely shot from the young man... |
| OUT |

| 0.4 | 0.4 Praveen to Rawat, out Caught by Boucher!! Fullish delivery on the middle and leg, seaming away, Rawat comes down the track and looks to flick it away, gets a faint edge and they all go up, the finger goes up as well, this is what Bangalore wanted Rawat c Boucher b Praveen 0(2) |
| 3.2 | 3.2 Zaheer to Yusuf Pathan, out Caught by Boucher at short fine leg!! shortish delivery on the off, Yusuf Pathan stays up tall and looks to pull it away, top edge goes flying, the keeper runs around and takes a good catch, big wicket for Bangalore Yusuf Pathan c Boucher b Zaheer 21(12) <4s-5> |
