Phil Salt look like a man on a mission against the Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB). After a rare failure against the Rajasthan Royals in the last match, Salt redeemed himself with a stunning performance against the Bengaluru team.

With Sunil Narine struggling to put his bat on ball, Salt took the initiative and was the chief aggressor early in the innings. He started off with a couple of boundaries to Mohammed Siraj and didn't spare Yash Dayal either.

However, the moment of the power-play came when Salt hammered Lockie Ferguson for 28 runs in a single over. The equation in that over read - 6, 4, 4, 6, 4, 4.

Siraj gets Salt's wicket

Just when things looked bad for the RCB side, Siraj pulled one back for his side and got the prized wicket of Salt for a 14-ball 48.

Siraj's length delivery was heaved away on the leg side by the KKR opener, but he found Rajat Patidar at the deep mid wicket region, who gobbled up a simple catch to end his innings.

One brought the downfall of another as Narine was dismissed in the very next over to bring RCB back in the contest.

The match is of utmost importance for RCB, who are tottering at the last position in points table and need to win every game to stay alive in playoffs race.
