RCB's explosive opener, <a href="https://www.iplt20.com/teams/royal-challengers-bengaluru/squad-details/5606">Phil Salt</a>, has been in excellent form for the team in the past few games. However, his stint at the crease was cut short, thanks to a masterclass from MI&rsquo;s veteran pacer <a href="https://www.mumbaiindians.com/players/4338-trent-boult-profile">Trent Boult</a>. The game, which was filled with expectation, had Salt step out to start the innings with his partner, looking to set the tone for RCB's run chase or first innings, depending on the toss.</p><p><strong>Also Read:</strong><a href="https://www.cricketwinner.com/cricket-news/ipl-2025-kkr-vs-lsg-eden-gardens-stadium-stats-and-preview/"> IPL 2025: KKR vs LSG &ndash; Eden Gardens stadium stats and Preview</a></p><p>The drama was played out in the very first over. Salt, who has a reputation for his ferocious stroke play, got off the mark in style by dispatching a boundary to Boult's opening delivery&mdash;a stylish cover drive that announced his arrival. The Wankhede crowd was full of life, anticipating fireworks from the Englishman. But Boult, with all his experience, had different ideas. On the very first ball after that, he produced a peach of a delivery that came back in, thudding into Salt's leg stump. Salt, who was out for a mere 4 runs off 2 balls, walked back to the pavilion, leaving RCB in disarray soon. This dismissal gave MI a vital edge and set the stage for a dogfight-like battle.</p><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p dir="ltr" lang="en">Wake up nation!

This scalp was Boult's 31st in the opening over of an IPL game, establishing his record as a new-ball master. For RCB, Salt's departure early on mounted pressure on the middle order to steady the innings, and MI took advantage of the momentum. As the game went on, Boult's initial strike continued to be a turning point in this high-intensity encounter.</p>]]></content:encoded>
