Rajasthan Royals made an early breakthrough as they removed RCB's skipper Faf du Plessis in the powerplay. Trent Boult and Rovman Powell partnered up to remove him for 17 runs off 13 balls and break the budding partnership him and Virat Kohli.

Watch the video here:

Trent Boult bowled a short length delivery on the stumps, du Plessis sat back and pulled it aerially in front of square in the leg side. It went flat and hard towards the deep mid wicket where Powell was present. The catch was very hard and it almost felt that he would not hold onto it. However, it seemed as if Powell estimated it well and he walked a couple of steps forward and leaped towards it to make a stunning flying catch.

Although Faf walked back, the umpire sent it upstairs to see whether or not it was a clean catch and as the replays confirmed it was.

With this RR managed to send the big dangerman back with RCB reeling at 56/1. Virat Kohli and Cameron Green are at the middle helping the Bengaluru franchise boost the score further.
