Kuldeep Yadav - It's very important to stick with the length, obviously when you get a wicket like this, it's very important to put revs on the ball as a leg-spinner. I think the wicket is good to bat on, because of the dimensions on this ground, you tend to focus on the lengths and not bowl full. I just stuck to my task at hand. Vipraj bowled in the powerplay, I spoke to KL and he said that a few balls were holding.The chat with Axar was to try and spin the ball, read the batter's mind, the wicket was sticky and it was important to take wickets in the middle overs. I don't think there's dew, that's a good sign for the RCB bowlers. 163 is a good total, but it's chaseable at this ground.
Faf went off the field in the 8th over in the first innings

Mukesh Kumar to Tim David, wide, the umpire has singalled a wide but Rahul was confident there was a nick. Axar takes the review. There certainly seemed to be a deflection. Was a short delivery that angled down leg, Tim David tried to hook it across and it passed close to his gloved before going into the gloves of Rahul. UltraEdge though indicates that there's a clear gap between the gloves and the ball. The wide call stands
