  GT vs RCB IPL Match: GT beat RCB by six wickets 

  Tewatia finishes it off with a four. What a partnership this has been between these two ace finishers.

The partnership between them ends at 79 off 40 balls and it has been put together with care. Miller is unbeaten on 39 off 24, Tewatia on 43 off 25.

• Apr 30, 2022 07:16 PM IST

  GT vs RCB Live Score: SIX! Tewatia ends the 19th in style

  RCB now need just 7 to win off the last over. Sends the last ball of the 19th over bowled by Harshal Patel over covers and clears the boundary with ease. This chase has turned out to be an easy one for GT and that is completely down to these two batters. 

• Apr 30, 2022 07:10 PM IST

• Apr 30, 2022 07:04 PM IST

  GT vs RCB IPL 2022 Live Updates: GT 135/4 after 17 overs

  Need 36 to win from 18 balls. Six sixes off an over would do the job, and knowing these two batters that might just happen. Although it must be said that it is Josh Hazlewood bowling this over, and most probably the last, and he has conceded just 9 runs in 2 overs.

  IPL 2022 Live: GONE! Shahbaz making the difference

  Shout for LBW and the umpire raises his finger again. Gill reviews once more but this time, he is not too sure as he goes for it. Replays show three reds so that is the end of the story for Gill. 

  Gill LBW b Shahbaz 31 (28); GT 68/2 after 8.5 overs

• Apr 30, 2022 06:17 PM IST

  GT vs RCB: SIX! Gill adding salt to RCB's wounds

  Gill smacks Shahbaz Ahmed for for a six behind midwicket and that shot came off a free hit. The ball was declared a no ball because it was deemed by the third umpire that the wicketkeeper had collected the ball from in front of the stumps. The umpire had declared Gill out after which the batter reviewed the decision, which is when the third umpire called the no ball.  

• Apr 30, 2022 06:10 PM IST

• Apr 30, 2022 06:01 PM IST

  IPL Score: End of powerplay

  GT are 46/0. Hazlewood had built up some pressure but 12 runs off the last over in the powerplay bowled by Siraj has eased some of that. GT would be very happy with where they are at the moment. 

• Apr 30, 2022 05:57 PM IST

  Gujarat Titans vs Royal Challengers Bangalore: FOUR!

  Wriddhiman Saha has taken the initiative yet again. Short from Siraj and Saha stands tall to cut it over the infield. The ball trickles away to the boundary.  

• Apr 30, 2022 05:46 PM IST

  GT vs RCB IPL Match: GT 23/0 after 3 overs

  IPL 2022 Live: 10 runs off the 1st over

  Gill also managed to get a boundary in that over after which he almost got an inside edge to the keeper off the next ball. All in all, it hasn't been a great first over for RCB. 

• Apr 30, 2022 05:34 PM IST

  GT vs RCB Live Score: Maxwell bowling the 1st over

  And Saha hits him for a four off the very first ball! He has Shubman Gill at the other end, who has been pretty inconsistent this season. Saha, of course, managed to score a half century in GT's last match before becoming one of five batters to fall to Umran Malik.

• Apr 30, 2022 05:20 PM IST

  GT vs RCB: RCB 170/6 after 20 overs

  15 runs off the last over. Lomror does fall after being caught by Miller off the last ball of that over but the delivery that would have been a dot due to his wicket ended up producing two runs. The question remains, though, is this enough?

• Apr 30, 2022 05:15 PM IST

  IPL 2022 GT vs RCB Live Score: Miller takes a good catch but the ball hit the cable!

  Mahipal Lomror survives in the most bizarre fashion. He skies an attempted big shot and it goes high up in the sky. But Lomror is standing around as the umpires go upstairs to check if the ball hit a cable on the way down. As it turns out, it did and the ball is declared dead. That is not one of the cables used for the spider cam. The Brabourne does not host international cricket regularly so one could find peculiarities like random cables above the ground. 

• Apr 30, 2022 05:13 PM IST

  GT vs RCB: SIX! 

  Lomror goes big in the last over bowled by Joseph to take RCB into the 160s. He has been sent out in a position in which he has to swing at everything. RCB 163/5 in 19.3

• Apr 30, 2022 05:11 PM IST

  IPL Live Score: GONE! 

  What a catch by Rashid at cover and that is Ferguson's second wicket. Low full toss on middle, Maxwell makes room and looks to go big but can't time that well. The ball loops up and Rashid runs back to to somehow take the catch it. 

   

  Maxwell c Rashid b Ferguson 33 (18), RCB 150/5.

  IPL 2022 Live: FOUR! Switch-hit from Maxwell!

  A Maxwell special that. Good length ball from Rashid, bit on the slower side, Maxwell switches on time and sends it to what should have been deep cover. 

• Apr 30, 2022 05:00 PM IST

  GT vs RCB Live Score: OUT! DK is out!

• Apr 30, 2022 04:35 PM IST

  Gujarat Titans vs Royal Challengers Bangalore: Shami pats Kohli on the shoulder

  The second timeout is taken and Shami just keeps his hands on his former India captain's shoulders after that over. RCB are 102/1 after 13 overs. 

• Apr 30, 2022 04:29 PM IST

  IPL Score: HALF CENTURY FOR KOHLI!

  He takes a single to get to his 43rd half century. He normally doesn't react too much when he gets half centuries but not this time. Not a flashy celebration, he lets out a sigh and looks up to the skies before raising his bat calmly to the crowd. That is the mark of a relieved man. 

• Apr 30, 2022 04:28 PM IST

  GT vs RCB IPL 2022 Live Updates: Shami returns

  And Patidar gets a little cheeky off his first ball. He tries to ramp Shami and the ball lands safely behind. The batters run two.

• Apr 30, 2022 04:16 PM IST

  IPL Live Score: SIX AND FOUR FROM KOHLI!

  His strike rate had just gone below 100 and Kohli responds. A full toss from Ferguson that Kohli sends straight down the ground for six. Ferguson then sends it in short outside off and Kohli puts it between deep point and third man. He moves into the 40s now. 

• Apr 30, 2022 04:12 PM IST

  IPL 2022 Live: RCB 51/1 after 8 overs

  Brilliant fielding effort from Pandya and just three runs off that eighth over. Kohli looks to cut away the fifth ball, it goes off his edge behind and the fielder takes it after bouncing once.

  Oh that is a good one from Kohli. Full, angling in and he just whips it away to the boundary.

  IPL Live Score: Almost a mix-up!

  Kohli sets off for a single after tapping the ball straight to cover before sending him back. Patidar was halfway down the pitch by then and he turns back.

• Apr 30, 2022 03:31 PM IST

  IPL 2022 Live: What the captains said 

  Hardik Pandya: Thank you (on being congratulated for playing his 100th IPL game). To be honest when I went to have a few knocks I thought I have come a long way. 2015 when it all started and today leading the side, proud of myself. We would have liked to bat first as well because of the heat. The wicket won't change much. It is just about how we manage our intensity and don't get overcooked. The boys had a couple of hits and it was all about recovery.

  Faf du Plessis: We are going to break the trend and have a bat first. Obviously it is a day game, heat is one factor and I find that when you field first the boys are cooked by the time it is our turn to bat. But hopefully the wicket will get little bit slower. Couple of games in the tournament does not make you a bad team. There is still some high class quality players, so keep trusting them and knowing things will change around the corner. With experience you know that the answer does not lie in the nets, it is just clarity in your own mind and calmness. Same team. No, one change - we have a leftie (Lomror) coming in.

  GT vs RCB IPL Match: GT's thrilling win over SRH

  Gujarat Titans seem to have found a knack of winning games from almost unwinnable positions this season. A prime example of that was their last game in which the fiery Umran Malik's five-wicket haul had left them needing 47 runs to win in the last three overs. They managed to chase it down, even smashing 25 runs in the last over, to win the game.

  It has been some time since Kohli was threatening to score a century in every match regardless of the format. However, his form this IPL has arguably been his worst in a tournament in this nearly two-and-a-half-year period in which he has not score a century in any format of the game.

  IPL Score: Rashid's bowling struggles

  Regardless of his adventures with the bat, Rashid's primary role is as a bowler and with SRH, he specialised in turning the screws in the middle overs. He has not been able to do that thus far this season. He has taken just eight wickets this season and averages close to 60. 

• Apr 30, 2022 02:08 PM IST

RCB ended up being three wickets down within the first seven overs.

  GT vs RCB: Hello and welcome!

  Where does Virat Kohli go from here, is the question that has been raging since RCB's last match. His horror form has been in the centre of RCB's top order woes, which have come to bite them in their last two matches. In their last match against Rajasthan Royals, Kohli managed to avoid a hat-trick of golden ducks but it looked like his bat had nothing but edges on it.
