After watching all the carnage from the other end, when Karthik finally got his chance to bat, he promptly hit Bumrah for a six - that was only the second boundary Bumrah had conceded in the day. It spoke a lot about both Bumrah and Karthik.

Faf du Plessis (61) and Rajat Patidar (50) also played an important role in ensuring RCB got close to the 200-run mark. Karthik (53 not out off 23 balls) produced just the kind of knock RCB needed towards the end of the innings.

In a contest where his fellow pacers erred consistently, Bumrah’s accuracy and mastery over variation helped him rule the roost once again.
