Jadeja hit five sixes, one four, and a double, of which one of them was a no-ball. CSK were staring at a score of 160s to 170s. But with Jadeja’s monumental batting effort in the last over, they put up a total of 191. And RCB have a task in hand to chase a challenging target of 192 and keep their unbeaten target alive.

This is how the 37-run over went: 6, 6, 7 no-balls, 6, 2, 6, 4. Jadeja ended as the top-scorer with 62 runs off 28 balls.
