8.3 OUT! CAUGHT AGAIN! Double whammy for Shashank Singh, and what a spell this is turning out to be. Singh holds his length, bowling it a touch fuller and this is pushed wide outside the off stump. Abhishek Sharma stays leg-side of the ball, clears the front leg, bends one knee and slaps the lofted drive over covers. The ball flies straight into the bread basket of Arshdeep Singh on the cover fence and he makes no mistake. Sharma will feel he's missed out on a big one here but Shashank has tripled his IPL wicket tally in the space of just 3 legal deliveries. 122/2

8.1 OUT! CAUGHT! Finally, some respite for the Kings, and this whirlwind of an opening stand has come to an end. Shashank Singh takes pace off the delivery and bowls it into the wicket. Travis Head sets up to pull but is undone by the lack of pace and is through his shot early. Head ends up lofting the ball high towards long on, where Xavier Bartlett takes a straightforward catch as Head's quickfire knock is over. End of a 120-run stand. Can PBKS build on this? 120/1

| Ishan Kishan C Wk | 27 | 17 | 3 | 1 | 158.82 |

14 OUT! TAKEN! That is an absolute stunner from Marco Jansen, and Arshdeep gets his first wicket of the season. He serves this fuller, angling into the pads. Ishan Kishan brings his wrists into play and whips it away over mid-wicket. He and everyone present at the ground think it is six for all money. However, Jansen has other ideas. He runs to his right and just sticks out his right hand to pouch it nonchalantly. Made it look easy. Marcus Stoinis, who was at long on, breaks into a laugh, Marco Jansen wears that 'did that really stick?' smile. Arshdeep Singh sinks to his haunches in disbelief, while Ishan Kishan heads back, still trying to piece it all together. SRH are 169/3 now. 169/3

19.4 OUT! CAUGHT! Looked like a good shot but Heinrich Klaasen holes out in the deep and lobs his bat up in the air in frustration. Xavier Bartlett nails the yorker on leg stump. Klaasen stays put and clears the front leg, flicking it high towards deep mid-wicket. Cooper Connolly sets himself just inside the boundary ropes and takes a solid catch as SRH continue to misfire at the death. 218/6

| Aniket Verma | 18 | 9 | 1 | 1 | 200 |

16.4 OUT! ANIKET VERMA IS RUN OUT! Chahal goes full and drifts it into the pads. Aniket Verma goes on one knee to sweep but miscues the shot. The ball ends up going in front of square leg. The batters run the first one hard and set off for the second but Verma hesitates a touch and says no, but Klaasen commits. That slight hesitation is enough to cause the downfall as Marcus Stoinis picks up the ball and throws it to the keeper, Prabhsimran Singh and the bails are dislodged with Verma nowhere in the picture. 195/4

| Salil Arora | 9 | 8 | 0 | 1 | 112.50 |
|
18.5 OUT! CAUGHT! Arshdeep Singh gets his second wicket. Singh goes full and straight but takes some pace off the delivery. Salil Arora stays deep in the crease, makes room and looks to heave it straight back. However, he only gets the height, not the distance. The fielders from long off and long on converge and it is Xavier Bartlett from the latter position who takes the skier without a fuss. 214/5

6.2 OUT! TAKEN! Shivang Kumar gets a big breakthrough for his team. Once again, we see a wicket fall right after the strategic break. This is a googly, full and on middle, turns in a bit. Priyansh Arya clears his front leg to slog it away again. However, due to the inward spin, the ball takes the inside half of the bat. It flies straight towards deep mid-wicket, where Nitish Kumar Reddy takes a fine catch. End of a fine knock from Arya, and PBKS are 99/1, chasing a target of 220. 99/1

8.5 OUT! TAKEN! Fifty and out for Prabhsimran Singh. Shivang Kumar gets rid of both the openers, just like what Shashank Singh did for Punjab. This is a googly, full and around off, keeping it away from the batter. Singh still tries to loft it down the ground but his bat turns in his hands upon contact. He mistimes it towards long off, where Heinrich Klaasen runs in a long way and takes a fine diving catch with the ball dipping on him. 117/2

10.2 OUT! TAKEN! He's only gone and done it again, has Shivang Kumar. Nicely tossed up, it is the leg break, full and outside off, turns away a touch as well. Cooper Connolly extends his arms and goes for the lofted shot, hitting it a mile high in the air but there's not enough power on it. Aniket Verma settles himself at long off and takes a crucial catch. Kumar gets his third wicket and PBKS now need 92 runs off 58 balls. 128/3

16.1 OUT! TIMBER! Harsh Dubey gets a wicket but it looks like it's too little too late for SRH. Harsh Dubey fires in a yorker, on off. Nehal Wadhera steps across and tries to get under it to launch it down the ground but fails to do so. The ball dips late and sneaks under the bat to rattle into the off pole. 197/4
