  • Player of the Match
    Krunal Pandya
    7(7)&2/11(4)
That’s it from this game then! On Saturday, there are two games lined up for you. The action begins at 1530 IST (1000 GMT) with Gujarat taking on Bangalore. Followed by a game between Mumbai and Rajasthan at 1930 IST (1400 GMT). The build-up begins a lot earlier though. Till then goodbye and take care.
Krunal Pandya wins the Man of the Match award for his exceptional spell with the ball. Says he has been working a lot on his bowling, since the last 8 months. Adds he aimed to develop his skills and the result is there for everyone to see. Further says, he realised his stride was too big. That’s why made some tweaks which are helping him a lot. Adds, he is a bit disappointed as he hasn’t shone with the blade yet. But believes that he can contribute with the blade in the coming future.
KL Rahul, the winning captain, is in for a chat. He says that he was fuming after the first innings. Is harsh in summing up the innings and says it was stupid batting. Mentions this game has been completely handled by the bowlers. They played a crucial knock in the death as well as restricted the opposition batters well. Further adds they knew the wicket was tricky and it was never going to be a 180 plus score. Adds Pandya has been crucial for the side to pick wickets in the middle overs. Bishnoi as well keeps getting the crucial wickets. Says this will give them a lot of confidence as a team and would hope to improve in the next match.
Stay tuned for the presentation...
Quinton de Kock is in for a spot interview. He says to be honest he is surprised to see his side get over the line. Credits the bowlers because they are the ones who did the job for the side. Also praises the bowling effort of Mohsin Khan and Chameera. Says, he just aims to keep soldering on and try to take everything game by game.
Mayank Agarwal, the Punjab skipper is in for a chat. He says they kept losing wickets regularly and that’s where they lost the game. Mentions they have to face the truth which is really disappointing. Adds, the new ball was really crucial, but the batters could not apply themselves. Further says, as a bowling unit they are consistently ticking the boxes and is happy with the way Rabada is leading the pack.
Punjab got off to a good start with the bat but their problem was losing wickets during crunch situations. All the top batters, Livingstone, Shikhar Dhawan, Mayank and Bairstow got starts but none of them went on to make it big and that is what they needed. In the end, it was a comfortable win for Lucknow.
An excellent bowling display by Lucknow and they have managed to defend a target yet again. Picking wickets was the key for them and they did do so. They had to wait for the first one but after that, they kept getting breakthroughs at regular intervals. 6 bowlers were used by Lucknow and except for Holder who bowled just the one over, all the others played their part. Mohsin Khan and Dushmantha Chameera were really good first up. Avesh did not begin well but came back strongly at the end. Krunal was the one who applied the breaks and Bishnoi got the important wicket of Shikhar Dhawan.

Ravi Bishnoi To Jonny Bairstow
NOT OUT! Ravi Bishnoi also has an impact straightaway after coming back into the attack to bowl out. The umpire agrees but Jonny Bairstow challenges the decision of the official. It is tossed up, full and on off. Jonny Bairstow tries to defend it on the front foot but misses. He gets rapped on his pads. The UltraEdge shows no bat is involved. The Ball Tracking though shows the ball is missing the wickets. The umpire is forced to overturn his decision. How costly will this prove to be for Lucknow?
Strategic break! Punjab are on the back foot! We do believe so. Have to say, a lot depends on Bairstow if they are to win this game. He will have to stay there till the end and the others will have to bat around him. Can he take his side over the line? Lucknow will know his wicket and they will be well on course to win this game. Something tells me we are in for a brilliant finish.

Ravi Bishnoi To Shikhar Dhawan OUT!
OUT! TIMBER! That is a huge, huge wicket. Shikhar Dhawan's struggle ends. He was the man in-form for Punjab and he is now dismissed! This is full and on middle, Dhawan looks to sweep but the length is not right. It is way too full. It goes under the bat and the middle pole is uprooted. All those dots by Dhawan probably led to his wicket. He was under the pump and looked to target Bishnoi. Probably picked the wrong bowler.

Dushmantha Chameera To Mayank Agarwal OUT!
OUT! TAKEN! That is an outstanding catch by Rahul and he is delighted. Mayank Agarwal who was looking dangerous, walks back. Dushmantha Chameera gets the breakthrough! This is full and on middle, Agarwal creams it but since it is way too full, he does not get the elevation he would have wanted and it goes to the left of Rahul at mid off who takes it well. He had to time his jump and he did. 119 needed in 92.
