GT vs PBKS Live Cricket Score

0.2 OUT! CAUGHT! Siraj gets his man on the second chance and Punjab Kings are already 2/1 after just 2 deliveries. Siraj dishes out another short-pitched delivery, bowling it wide outside the off stump. Priyansh Arya fails to resist the temptation and flat-bats it wide of deep backward point. Nishant Sindhu, the debutant, scampers across to his left and takes a fine sliding catch. 2/1

5.2 OUT! MISTIMED AND TAKEN EASILY! A rare occasion where both the Punjab openers have failed to make any impact. Rabada shines. He hits the hard length, keeping the line of attack around the off pole and gets a decent lift as well. Prabhsimran Singh stands tall and tries to loft it over the cover fielder, but gets the ball high on the bat. Goes through the shot, but does not get the timing at all. Airs it away and offers a simple catching practice to Manav Suthar at cover. PBKS are 35/3. 35/3

0.3 OUT! CAUGHT BEHIND! A peach of a delivery and Mohammed Siraj is on a hat-trick in the very first over. This is bowled on a good length and on off, the ball shapes back in beautifully. Connolly has a push at it but the ball zips past the inside edge. There's a prolonged appeal for a caught behind and eventually, the umpire raises his finger. Cooper Connolly seems uncertain and has a chat with Prabhsimran Singh before finally taking the review. UltraEdge comes up and shows a thin spike when the ball is next to the inside edge. Connolly has to walk back and GT are up and about as one. 2/2

8.4 OUT! CHOPPED ON! Wicket number 2 for Holder and this is just like a hammer blow on PBKS as they lose their skipper. Slams the deck hard and it nips back sharply into the batter over middle. Shreyas Iyer gets into a tangle as he is cramped for room. Is late to decide and goes for the dab to the off side, only to chop it back onto the stumps behind. He has a long stare at the pitch before making the long walk back. Shreyas has a stare at the pitch before walking away. Punjab Kings are 47/5. 47/5

6.3 OUT! EDGED AND TAKEN! Proper Test match length from Holder and he gets the reward. Punjab Kings are in deep trouble. Holder bashes the length hard, and angles it across the batter, outside off. Nehal Wadhera has a loose poke at it, playing it away from his body without moving his feet. An outside edge is found the ball flies flat to the left of Butter. Jos dives full-length to his left and gathers it nicely in his gloves. Iyer is stranded at one end and needs some stability from the other end. PBKS are 36/4. 36/4

16 OUT! CAUGHT BEHIND! Rabada shows his smarts and ends this 79-run partnership. Hits the hard length, just outside off at over 145 kph and gets a good bit of lift as well. The shot is on for Shedge to play the ramp shot. He stands tall, goes for it to hit it over short third, but is beaten by pace and edges it back to the keeper. Probably cramped for space too on that occasion. Buttler gathers it nicely above his head. Top knock from the young Suryansh Shedge. Punjab Kings are 126/6. Rabada ends his spell with excellent figures, reading 4-1-22-2. 126/6

17.4 OUT! MISCUED IN THE AIR AND CAUGHT! Good bit of battle between the two all-rounders and Holder has the last laugh. Holder goes short and on middle and leg, from around the wicket. Marcus Stoinis goes back in the crease and tries to flat bat it over long on, but slices it off the blade, perhaps getting it high on the willow. Slices it straight into the hands of Washington Sundar at long on. Stoinis is livid with himself for not getting the timing right on that one. This wicket could shrink a fair bit of runs from the total. Punjab Kings are 141/7 after 17.4 overs. 141/7

19.5 OUT! HIT HARD AND CAUGHT! Rashid wins the duel against Jansen, but the towering South African has played a good hand. Short and wide outside off. Jansen reaches out and flat bats it hard but finds short extra cover. Gill moves a couple of steps to his right, dives and takes a fine low catch, just inches off the ground. Punjab Kings are 162/9, 1 ball left. 162/9

17.5 OUT! BOWLED! A ripper from Holder and he is on a Hat Trick. He is over the moon as he gets his 4th wicket. Over the wicket, Holder uses the wider angle. Hard length, outside off, nipping back in sharply. Bartlett looks to punch it down the ground without moving his feet, gets beaten on the inside edge and the ball tickles the top of the middle stump. Golden duck for Bartlett. PBKS are 141/8. 141/8

14.5 OUT! CAUGHT! Sai Sudharsan holes out. He throws his head back in disappointment at not finishing the game himself. A well-directed short ball by Vyshak, around the left shoulder, Sudharsan pivots on the back foot for the pull but is rushed and he can't get the desired power on the shot. Xavier Bartlett hangs back on the ropes at deep mid-wicket. Bartlett gets his hands high and times the jump to perfection to take the catch over his head. 124/4

1.3 OUT! STRAIGHT UP AND TAKEN! Arshdeep is off on a celebratory run. He goes full now, seam-up ball, leaving the right-hander with the angle. Gill plants his front foot towards the pitch of the ball but swings across the line of the ball. It is skied off a leading edge towards point. Cooper Connolly moves across to his left, settles under it and takes a safe catch close to his chest. GT lose their skipper early. The Titans are now 16/1 in pursuit of 164. 16/1

8.1 OUT! CAUGHT! A massive wicket for PBKS. Iyer is charged up, and so is Vyshak, who fishes out Buttler. Vijaykumar hits the hard length, around the top of off, Jos Buttler backs away a bit to create room, trying to lift it over the cover region, but the ball holds on slightly and arrives a fraction later than the Englishman expected. He shimmies down the track a bit but hits it off the toe end. It balloons over extra cover, where Shreyas Iyer moves to his left and takes the catch. Buttler knew it straight away. Gujarat Titans are 69/2, needing 95 more runs. 69/2

11.3 OUT! IN THE AIR AND GONE! Not the best of balls, but Marcus Stoinis won't mind it one bit. Dug in a bit too short and wide on off. Sindhu hops to flay it away but fails to get hold of it. Ends up slicing it off the lower half of the blade towards deep third. He gets the height but not the distance. Vijaykumar Vyshak moves to his left in the deep and takes a good running catch around his knee. 94/3

17 OUT! TAKEN IN THE DEEP! Jansen keeps PBKS very much alive. Rahul cannot quite believe it. Marco hits the hard length, keeping the line of attack around middle and off. Rahul Tewatia crouches a bit and tries to pull it over the deep square leg fielder, but ends up hitting it flat and straight into the safe hands of Xavier Bartlett stationed in the deep. Xavier does not have to move much and takes a watchful catch. The Titans are 140/5, needing 24 runs from 18 balls. 140/5

18.5 OUT! SUPERB CATCH! Great pair of hands from Cooper Connolly and this game is far from being over. Good length, angling from middle to off. Jason Holder clears the front leg to heave it over the deep mid-wicket fence, but hits it off the inner half and hence, does not get the distance. Cooper Connolly charges to his left from deep mid-wicket, watches the ball like a hawk and takes a good diving catch. The big man cannot get the job done for his team. GT still need 12 from 7 balls. 152/6
