Chase is going decently so far, they've seen off two of Hasaranga's overs with no wickets lost.
IPL 2022
- Thread starter Edgar Allan Pillow
- Start date
Yes, this Harshal spell is going to be so critical to the result
Run rate is picking up, they need to at least get a boundary each over and start motoring. These 2 need to stay or 1 at least stay till the 16th over at least.
Lucknow left their acceleration a couple over too late, they’ll probably finish 12-15 short of the target.
Think FAF regretting not having bowled Maxwell tonight
Yes, definitely now thinking FAF messed up his bowling options and order
Feels like it. Although RCB got 60 runs in 24 balls, but you feel they still left this too late.
Yeah this is done now, would be a capitulation from RCB to let it slip from here. But then again, Hazelwood is up. 
EDIT: After his recent death blowing form, he's turned it around and taken any doubt from this match now.
Well played from RCB. RR here they come.

That was a good defense eventually. Don't think RR will be that forgiving, let's see.
That was another good match to watch. Great finishing by the RCB bowlers - Patel in particular.
Good win for RCB, the bowlers set good plans on the whole. I was worried at one stage that they hadn't taken enough wickets in the first 15 overs but that 3rd over from Harshal put them in a great position to allow Hazlewood some room to execute his plans well.
Like with any knockout tournament, it comes down to who shows up on the date. What RCB have to be hoping is that it would be hard to imagine all of Kohli, Faf, and Maxwell not firing in a second consecutive game though.
only watch u-19 world cups and track Ranji scores on cricinfo for few of the teams like my state.. not familiar with Mohsin before the IPL..
RCB losing the toss again, so unlucky this season.
Thinking RR will win it, but just like the last game showed us, anything can happen.

Can't help himself Kohli.. Really really poor
Another Kohli failure, horrible shot from a top level batsman. His back foot offside game is non-existent.
Commentator called it just now.. he shows any intent on that shot, he gets a boundary. But his state of mind is so bad right now.
Edit: basically what Patidar just did
I think it started during the England tour and he cemented that mindset in SA, just refused to be positive with anything short and wide.
If RCB don't get at least 40 runs from this last 11 balls you feel it's curtains.
Then again, they may just get 3 wickets in the PP and then it's game on again

RR should easily chase this.
Buttler 
In the mood tonight!
In the mood tonight!RR has turned this into a procession.
Around 30 runs short... Ooh well, next year
100! 4 this season. What a player! Take a bow.
From the start of the season I chose RR to win it all, and while I've grown attached to GT after watching them all season, I think the story behind an RR win is much more appealing for me so despite no South African in the team (Rassie has not been needed) I'm more pulling for RR as I did in the start of the season.
Thankfully I still won't be disappointed if GT wins it, they have been exceptional all season as well and have contributed to much of the excitement and high chases we've had the pleasure of watching.

What a season buttler and RR has had. They may not have a great bench strength but their first 11 is pretty good. I am backing them for Warnie.
Yeah they're my team too, for all the English players and Warnie.
Buttler has to get another go in England's test team. The Mccullum era should be perfect for him.
Does anyone know a good site to watch tomorrow's game outside the UK? I'm in Spain but have VPN.
Google this Android app called pikashow. Can be installed into Android devices or firestick
Amazing, thanks mate!
As with most of the games this season, I'm conflicted.
My heart says RR but the head says GT.
Buttler looking ominous already, if he stays on it will be a big total.

Padikkal has killed the innings almost every time he comes out to bat. Good, he’s out now.
I know still a lot to play but feel he has cost the game. Shocking innings
Now it's on. Buttler gone. GT have to be favorites right now.
Hardik putting in a proper Captains performance, and he still has to bat.
Turning into a shit final. Gujarat are deserved winners, easily the most balanced and consistent side and Rajasthan have been carried to the final by Buttler.
Yeah was hoping for a tight one but GT showing why they have been top all season. They just so good. Happy for them.
Still anything can happen, so not a jinx this.
Well played GT. Not many predicted them to do this. Miller has been absolutely fantastic this season. Rajasthan have had a mare today.
Couldn't have asked for a better player to see it home. Miller Time!
This has been an excellent IPL season, must have only missed a total of 4 games.
GT deserved winners and happy for them. Would have liked RR to get it for Warnie but they haven't been as consistent as GT and it showed tonight.
Still happy that Buttler and Chahal got their respective caps, both deserved as well.
