Deepak Chahar to Virat Kohli, FOUR! Just the start that Bangalore would have wanted! Chahar starts with a full ball on the pads, Kohli flicks it to the deep square leg region for a boundary.

We are back for the run chase! The Chennai players are in a huddle near the ropes and Thala, MS Dhoni has some last words to say, before they spread out on the field. The openers for Bangalore, Devdutt Padikkal and Virat Kohli, who were on fire in the last game, stride out now. They will be looking to repeat what they did in the last game. As expected, Deepak Chahar will begin with the new ball. 

17:36 (IST) Apr 25

Right then! 192 to win for Bangalore. It won't be easy as the pitch is a little dry but they have the resources to chase it down. Chennai has a very good bowling line-up and they will not make it easy. How will the run chase pan out? We will find out as it begins in a while.

Bangalore's bowling was good until the final over. They were good with Siraj doing well, as well as Chahal. Sundar did good too. Harshal Patel was brilliant in his first three overs but what happened in the final over, he would not have expected. Jadeja took him to the cleaners and took him for 37 runs in the final over. They were not helped by dropped catches and some poor fielding and that might just haunt them towards the end of the game.
