Maestro Manohar: This is the issue with Axar, starts off well, plays one or two good shots, then perishes after going for a big shot, needs to be more responsible with the bat.

Sukhin: What changed in the pitch after the first 3 overs? RCB started strong but suddenly struggled—did the surface slow down or was it just good bowling? Is 163 a defendable total on this track now? 'It gripped and stopped in the first innings, 163 is a fighting score'
