“IT WAS A GREAT TEAM EFFORT” – SAYS THE CAPTAIN OF PUNJAB KINGS SHIKHAR DHAWAN.

“Despite being due on the field and the ball being wet, the bowlers did a great job.”, says the captain.
When asked about the tuning point he says that his bowlers coming in and getting early wickets was a plus point while keeping the pressure in.

IT’S THE VINTAGE DHONI

 We all know him, he has done it a million times over the last 15 years. He bought the game down again to 5 off 1 ball with a flurry of sixes against Rajasthan Royals. The pacer, Sandeep Sharma, who came into RR as a late substitute landed the yorker that didn’t let MSD finish the game. The duo of spinners, Ravichandran Ashwin and Yuzvendra Chahal also played a huge role. Both of them in their 8 overs gave only 52 runs while taking 4 wickets making things difficult for the opponent team. “You can't feel you have the game when that guy (MS Dhoni) is in the middle.”, Sanju Samson, the Skipper of the Royals said in his interview post-game. It was a 3-run win for Rajasthan Royals at CSK’s den would give the team a huge boost of confidence that they can do it anywhere. MSD made a one-sided match into a game worth remembering.                                                                                                      By- Anushka Jichkar

 Made it two wins just like our “AAVA DE” team- Gujarat Titians. Punjab Kings started strong with the openers Shikhar Dhawan (86*) and Prabhsimran Singh 60 (34). Bowler Nathan Ellis guided the Kings to victory by taking 4 wickets to his name, also being the Man Of The Match. The 1st wicket falls at 90 runs for Punjab taken by bowled by Jason Holder and Taken by none other than  Jos Buttler . Punjab Kings gave a target of 197 runs to the Royals which is pretty much a huge target to chase in just 120 balls. The early wicket was a great start for the Kings in the 2nd Innings. The Royals were 1 down already at their 12th over which was 13 for 1 bowled by Arshdeep Singh. Punjab with a great field set up led them to early wickets. The game coming close to an end, Punjab Kings won by 5 runs and bagged the 2nd position on the table after Gujrat Titans.
