First ball on the resumption Archer goes and MI have won by 100 runs. Royals become the second side to be officially eliminated, joining Chennai Super Kings.

We have a Strategic Tine Out with Rajasthan Royals needing 101 from four overs and the last pair at the crease together. Doesn't quite pip the one when scores were level with four overs to go and the batting side had lost only two wickets, but it is another one for the list of IPL absurdities.
#cricket #T20 #IPL #RRvMI

Not only are RR in the last chance saloon, both in this match and in terms of qualification hopes, most of the other tables in that establishment have already been cleared and cleaned preparatory to closure.

Dubey tries to go down the ground against Boult and succeeds only in picking out Pandya at mid on to make it 64-6. Dubey 15 (9) - not quite the impact that an 'Impact Sub' should have.
#cricket #T20 #IPL #RRvMI

Shubham Dubey ends the over with a four. Royals 51-5 after five overs, need 167 more from 15 overs. If it was 51-0 after five overs Royals would be in the hunt, but those five wickets have effectively finished them already.

First ball blob for Hetmyer courtesy of a blinder of a catch from Yadav at short midwicket to put Bumrah on a hat trick. Royals 47-5, down and almost out.
#cricket #T20 #IPL #RRvMI

Parag gone for 16 (8), unable to control one from Bumrah that bounced higher than he expected. Sharma with the catch to make it 47-4 after 4.4 overs.
#cricket #T20 #IPL #RRvMI

Third wicket gone for Rajasthan Royals, Nitish Rana for 9 (11) to make it 41-3. Rajasthan Royals heavy favourites to join CSK on the eliminated list (with seven group stage losses there is a chance of qualifying on net run rate, with eight you are definitely gone, and this will be RR's eighth loss of the campaign)

Farooqi off the mark, but that single means that his side need 14 off the last two balls. Deshpande gets a single and it is 13 needed off one ball. Another singkle off the final ball and it is 194-9, giving RCB a win by 11 runs. Royals were 188-5 with two overs left, and have scored 6-4 in those two overs to throw this match away.
#cricket #T20 #IPL #RCBvRR

Leg bye off the second ball, and then a daft run out, going for a single, and not even a slightly offline throw from Tim David could enable Hasaranga to get home. RR 191-9. need 15 off three balls, with numbers 10 and 11 together.

Dubey hits a Dayal full toss straight to Salt and it is 189-8, 17 needed off five balls and no front line batters left. After taking 22 off the 18th over Royals had this match in their hands, and they have spectacularly fluffed their lines.
#cricket #T20 #IPL #RCBvRR

No hat trick, but it is another dot - a brute of a ball for Hasaranga to deal with. 17 needed off seven balls. The last ball of the over is another dot, and suddenly Royals need 17 off the final over to win. Hazlewood 4-0-33-4, including 2-1 in that penultimate over of the match.
#cricket #T20 #IPL #RCBvRR

Hazlewood has Archer caught by Patidar for a first ball duck and it is 189-7, 17 needed off eight balls. This over has gone: wide, dot, dot, wicket, wicket.
#cricket #T20 #IPL #RCBvRR

A review for a potential caught behind plays dividends for RCB - Jurel is out for 47 and it is 189-6 after 18.3 overs, 17 needed off nine balls with only four wickets left.
