Bengaluru vs Mumbai, Live Score, Match 54, Indian Premier League, 2026

Bhuvneshwar Kumar to Ryan Rickelton, OUT! CAUGHT! A real soft dismissal, and that is wicket number 18 of the season for Bhuvneshwar Kumar. Into the surface, on the shorter side, on middle. Rickelton gets on his toes and shapes up to whip it away on the leg side. The ball comes on slower than he expected and he ends up spooning it off the lower half of the blade to mid off. Rajat Patidar gobbles it up easily.

Bhuvneshwar Kumar to Rohit Sharma, OUT! EDGED AND GONE! The knuckleball does the trick for Bhuvneshwar Kumar. Floated up to the batter by Bhuvneshwar, outside off. This curves away as Rohit just pushes at the ball tentatively with no real conviction. He pays the price as the ball takes the outside edge and goes behind. It is dipping on the keeper, Jitesh Sharma, but he does well to dive to his right and snaffle it with his gloves under the ball.

Rasikh Salam to Naman Dhir, OUT! TIMBER! Whoa, that shot through, and there is nothing Naman Dhir could have done about it. Cross-seam ball by Salam angled in at the sticks, on a back of a length, on middle. Dhir moves away from the stumps to force it away with a horizontal bat. The ball does not rise at all and slips under the bat to crash into the lower half of the leg stump. The 82-run stand has been broken. MI are 110/4 now.

Bhuvneshwar Kumar to Suryakumar Yadav, OUT! TAKEN! Two in two for Bhuvneshwar Kumar. A golden duck for Suryakumar Yadav, and his lean run continues. Seam-up ball by Bhuvneshwar this time at 137.2 kph, on a good length, honing in on the off stump. Suryakumar pushes out in front with hard hands. It goes off the outside edge to Virat Kohli, who is stationed at a slightly wide slip. Kohli moves to his right and gets low to take a good catch. Bhuvi will be on a hat-trick at the start of the next over. MI are 28/3 in 3 overs.

Bhuvneshwar Kumar to Tilak Varma, OUT! DRAGGED ON! Bhuvneshwar Kumar has four to his name now. He sees the batter move across and bowls this wide outside off. Tilak Varma knows that fine leg is up in the circle, goes down and across to scoop it away. He takes it on the full, but unfortunately, it catches the inside edge and crashes back onto the stumps, with Varma on the ground. Rohit Sharma is very disappointed in the dugout.

Romario Shepherd to Will Jacks, OUT! CAUGHT! Romario Shepherd strikes a crucial blow for his side. He serves this a touch fuller, on middle and angling in a bit. Will Jacks backs away and looks to hit it through the line, but his bat turns in his hands upon contact. It goes off the bottom half of the bat and flies towards deep mid-wicket, where Jacob Bethell moves forward and takes a fine catch. MI lose half their side now, with 132 runs on the board.

Josh Hazlewood to Raj Bawa, OUT! CAUGHT! Josh Hazlewood finishes his spell with a wicket. He looks for the yorker, but serves a low full toss, on middle. Raj Bawa looks to go down the ground but cannot quite get under it. His bat turns in his hands, and he ends up spooning it towards mid off, where Rajat Patidar takes a dolly. MI are 161/7 now.

Corbin Bosch to Jacob Bethell, OUT! CAUGHT! Jacob Bethell could not have picked out the fielder in the deep any better. Corbin Bosch strikes on his return to the attack. This is a length ball, angled into the pads. Bethell plays a wristy flick and has no intention of keeping it on the ground. He fails to pick the gap and hits it straight down the throat of Tilak Varma at deep square leg. Tilak seems to have lost the ball in the lights for a moment, but managed to hold on close to his chest eventually. The 55-run stand has been broken. RCB are 94/4, needing 73 runs from 47 balls.

Deepak Chahar to Virat Kohli, OUT! CAUGHT! A golden duck for Virat Kohli. Back-to-back ducks for the chase master. Moving away in the air, on a length, outside off. Kohli springs onto the front foot and rather than timing it, he goes hard on the lofted drive. He tries to play it on the rise but the bat turns in his hands upon contact. It goes flat towards mid off, where Raj Bawa moves to his right and takes a good catch.

Deepak Chahar to Devdutt Padikkal, OUT! EDGED AND GONE! An absolute beauty by Deepak Chahar. Just too good for even the best of batters. From around the wicket, he lands it on a good length, in line with the off stump. Padikkal is caught in his crease and is forced to play at it due to the angle. The ball lands and nips away off the seam enough to graze the outside edge. The keeper, Ryan Rickelton, does the rest behind the stumps. RCB are 24/2, chasing 167.

Corbin Bosch to Rajat Patidar, OUT! CAUGHT BEHIND! Perfect start for Bosch and problems are rising now for RCB. Corbin hits the hard length and targets the top of the stumps. Rajat Patidar gets across and tries to adjust to the bounce while attempting the pull shot, but only manages a thick top edge. The ball balloons up in the night sky over the keeper. Ryan Rickelton calls for the catch, calmly settles under it and takes a straightforward catch. The hosts lose their skipper and RCB are 39/3, needing 128 runs from 89 balls.

AM Ghazanfar to Krunal Pandya, OUT! TAKEN! Sensational athleticism by Tilak Varma and this game is far from being over. Full and around off. Krunal goes deep in his crease and looks to clear the boundary downtown, but does not get the timing right and hits it flat to the left of long on. Tilak Varma tracks it to his left and takes a stunning catch, but his momentum is taking him over the rope. He keeps his composure, flicks the ball back into the playing area before crossing the boundary. He comes back in and completes the catch. The third umpire has a look, and the replays confirm that it is a clean catch. Krunal Pandya walks back and is received with a huge round of applause by his teammates. But he would be gutted to have not got the job done for his side. RCB are 149/7, needing 18 off 12 balls.

Corbin Bosch to Jitesh Sharma, OUT! CAUGHT! Jitesh Sharma holes out. Bosch goes into the surface again but this is wider on off. Jitesh Sharma advances down the track again and is made to reach out as he looks to flay it over point. Ends up slicing it towards deep point, where Naman Dhir settles under it and makes no mistake. A good little hand from Jitesh comes to an end.

Corbin Bosch to Tim David, OUT! CAUGHT BEHIND! Corbin Bosch goes bang, bang. A golden duck for Tim David. Cross-seam ball, bowled on a hard length, over middle. David swivels as he tries to pull it off the front foot, but the ball comes on slower than he expected. It grazes the toe end of the blade and goes behind, where the keeper, Ryan Rickelton snaffles it with ease. Bosch is done for the night, finishing with figures of 4-1-26-4. RCB need 36 runs from 24 balls.

Raj Bawa to Romario Shepherd, OUT! TAKEN EASILY​​! Raj Bawa has picked up the most important wicket for his side. Fuller this time and wide outside off. Shepherd is well outside his crease and looks to slice it through the off side, but gets nowhere near the middle of it. The ball flies off the toe end and is sliced straight to Varma at backward point, who leaps and takes it comfortably. RCB lose their 8th wicket.
