C Woakes to A Rahane, OUT! In the air...caught! Woakes draws first blood! A much-needed wicket for Bangalore, especially after the start Rajasthan have got. Woakes bowls it slower and on a fuller length on middle. Rahane who has played really attacking till now once again tries to go big. He however, does not time it that well as it goes off the toe end of the bat towards mid on. Umesh Yadav there takes a couple of steps back and pouches it easily. The crowd erupts as a good knock and a good opening stand ends.

C Woakes to D Short, Mandeep Singh, outstanding stuff! Wow! A short ball on middle and Short pulled that with disdain through square leg. Short must have thought this is a certain boundary but Mandeep in the deep had different ideas. He runs to his left, dives and does really well to save three for his side.

U Yadav to A Rahane, FOUR! Dealing in boundaries is Rahane! Rajasthan are off to a very good start. End of another good over for them. Yadav once again makes the mistake of bowling it too full and on the pads. Rahane flicks it through mid-wicket and there is no stopping that ball.

U Yadav to D Short, Misunderstanding between the two again! They do have a smile on their face but that would have been wiped off had there been another run out. This is bowled shorter on middle, Short pulls it towards deep mid-wicket. They run one and once again, Rahane wants two but is sent back by his partner. Good call by Short as there was never a second on.
