MI beat RCB by 15 runs
 
Amelia Kerr comes back in the attack for MI

Ball 6: WICKET! That’s the end. Kerr pulls the length back on middle and off, Ghosh steps down and swings wildly, completely losing shape. The ball flies off the outside edge to point, where the catch is taken. A heroic innings ends, but RCB fall short despite Ghosh’s brilliance.
 
Ball 5: Kerr drags it wider outside off, trying to hide it. Ghosh throws everything at the shot but only scuffs it along the ground towards long-off. No run, and tension spikes.
 
Ball 4: SIX! Floated up, full and wide, and Ghosh goes after it. She walks down the track, takes it on the full and carves it magnificently over extra cover. Pure power and timing.
 
Ball 3: SIX! Another one into the slot outside off. Ghosh plants her front foot, gets a solid base and smokes it cleanly over long-off. Kerr is under serious pressure.
 
Ball 2: Kerr loops it up even more and finally beats Ghosh in flight. She swings hard but misses completely, the ball passing safely through. A huge dot ball at this stage.
 
Ball 1: FOUR! Fullish outside off and Ghosh skips down the pitch, absolutely butchering it straight back past long-off. RCB need 28 off 5 and belief is roaring back.
