Bengaluru (Karnataka) [India], April 15 : Mitchell Marsh (2/18) and Kuldeep Yadav's (2/23) economical spells helped the Delhi Capitals keep the Royal Challengers from crossing 200-run mark, as the hosts ended the first innings with a competitive score of 174/6 in 20 overs, with Virat Kohli's half-century playing a crucial role in it at M Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru on Saturday.RCB skipper Faf Du Plessis and Virat Kohli gave a decent start to the home teams as the deadly duo struck 42 runs in five overs.

However, he fell short by a margin of inches as Yash Dhull picked up an easy catch to dismiss the inform batter for 50 (34).Lomror soon followed Kohli back to the dugout.
