Holder got the breakthrough on the first ball of the thirteenth over. Kohli looked to pull a thigh-high delivery but got a top-edge. All-rounder Vijay Shankar sprinted in in from long leg and slid on his knees to grab an astonishing catch. (IPL 2021 SRH vs RCB LIVE SCORE)

RCB managed only 149 for 8 against SRH after being asked to bat first. Maxwell was the top scorer, hitting five fours and three maximums with skipper Virat Kohli (33) Shahbaz Ahmed (14) and Kyle Jamieson (12) providing valuable contributions.

SRH bowlers, led by West Indian all-rounder Jason Holder (3/30) and star spinner Rashid Khan (2/18), put up superlative show and picked up wickets at regular intervals.

At the top of the order, RCB captain Virat Kohli made 33 off 29 ball before but his opening partner Devdutt Padikkal, returning to the team after recovering from COVID-19, got out for 11.
