Commentary :
5.0 :

Dwayne Smith is trying to mix caution with aggression.

Virat Kohli claps while standing on the fence for a dot ball bowled by Yuzvendra Chahal, now that's some encouragement.

This partnership was looking dangerous, a much needed wicket for RCB.

17.4 :

What a catch by Virat Kohli. Is there anything which he can't do?
