What's happening here! Royals are losing their way. From 63/0 to 103/6 in no time. K Gowtham is latest one to be dismissed. Good bouncer by Shivam Mavi, Gowtham takes evasive action. All he managed to get is gloves and DK takes another catch.

Another one departs! Kuldeep Yadav picks his third wicket. Stuart Binny is his latest victim, who is stumped! Nicely flighted googly it was. Binny steps out and fails to step back in time.
