In the 11th over of the innings, Harpreet Brar, RCB's left-arm slow bowler, attempted to emulate Ravindra Jadeja by bowling his over in less than a minute. When Glenn Maxwell was on strike and Brar was about to begin his run-up, the Australian was not prepared to face him. While the on-field umpire signaled a dead ball, Kohli instructed Brar, 'Arrey saans to lene de pancho.' [Allow him to take a breath, ********].

While it was unclear whether Maxwell comprehended what Kohli said, the Australian was delighted to see his teammate indulge in some amusing banter. Unfortunately for Maxwell, the striker lost his wicket in the next delivery by Brar. But RCB went on to win the match by 4 wickets at home.

PBKS' left-arm spinner Brar (2/13) dismissed dangerous middle-order batters Rajat Patidar and Glenn Maxwell cheaply as RCB, chasing 177 for victory, were in big trouble. He also took a wonderful catch to dismiss Kohli to put RCB in trouble.
