#2 Miss: RCB middle order

It was a poor display with the bat from the RCB middle-order, and their over-reliance on Kohli and AB de Villiers was exposed yet again in the chase. Moeen Ali, Mandeep Singh, Colin de Grandhomme, and Sarfaraz Khan were all dismissed for single-digit scores.
Gopal was the thorn in the side of all these batsmen, except Khan, who fell to the precise spin-bowling from Ish Sodhi.
De Villiers scored an impressive fifty on the day, and if even one of these batsmen would've stayed with him on the crease, the result might've fallen in the other direction for the Bangalore franchise.
