KS Bharat was handed the wicket-keeper role with AB de Villiers solely playing as a batter. Hesson stated they need to take care of the former Proteas captain, who is playing his first competitive match in almost four months.
Addressing a virtual press conference, Mike Hesson said:
However, KS Bharat failed to make an impression and looked completely out of sorts. He managed to score only 16 runs during his 19-ball stay before holing out to Shubman Gill.

“We were not able to combat it” - Mike Hesson lauds Varun Chakravarthy
The spin wizard Varun Chakravarthy posed all sorts of trouble for the RCB batters. He bowled 15 dot balls in his four overs and returned with figures of 3/13, including the big wicket of Glenn Maxwell.
Praising Chakravarthy, Mike Hesson stated that the lack of partnership from the RCB batters helped the spinner attack the new batsman. The former Kiwi head coach said:
Banking on Varun Chakrvarthy and Andre Russell’s incredible show with the ball, KKR bowled out RCB for 92 runs before chasing it down in just 10 overs.
