First Innings:
Gujarat Titans invited RCB to bat first at the Chinnaswamy stadium. Although, it is their home ground, the key batsmen struggled in the middle. Salt, Kohli, Padikkal and Patidar failed to make an impression. At one point, RCB were 42/4. But, Livingstone scored a half century, and he got support from Jitesh Sharma and Tim David. Both of them scored 30+ to push the score to 169 runs in 20 overs for the loss of 8 wickets. Gujarat Titans bowlers played well.
