Chasing 214 in this game, the South African was always going to be the key for RCB. With Kohli opening the batting, De Villiers came in at No. 3. He walked out to bat with RCB 40/1 in four overs. He got off the mark on his first delivery with a wristy whip to mid-on.

However, his second delivery, he pulled a short ball straight down to square-leg’s and left RCB at 42/2. It was the second consecutive game where the South African star was dismissed to a half-tracker.
