If RCB win both their remaining two games, they will move to 20 points and have a chance of finishing in the Top-2.

Even though he is yet to make a big score post the tournament’s resumption, Virat Kohli looked good during his stays in the middle and so did the skipper’s young opening partner Devdutt Padikkal, who scored a 40 in their last match.
