The right-arm pacer was the Man of the Match in RCB's victory over Punjab in their last game but was absolutely clobbered to all parts of the stadium by Rahane and Co. In his quota of four overs, he gave away as many as 59 runs at a mammoth economy of 14.8.

Not only did he leak runs with the ball, but also lacked discipline in his performance on the day. He bowled a front-foot no ball in the last over of the game, when RR had already crossed the 200-run mark in their batting innings.

It was a worrisome sign for skipper Kohli, who saw his strike seamer being bullied by the visitors throughout the game.
