However, RCB leg-spinner Asha Sobhana (5/22) claimed three wickets in the 17th over as Bangalore ended up registering an unexpected two-run win.

Batting first, Gujarat Giants came up with a below-par effort against defending champions Mumbai Indians. They managed only 126/9 in their 20 overs, with only three batters crossing the 20-run mark. Their bowlers fought hard in the chase to claim five MI wickets, but the total they put up was never going to be adequate.
