The game is set to begin.
... The Run Chase ...
The target is not a big one but the wicket is slightly tricky. They will need to apply themselves well and a lot will depend on the start the openers give. Lucknow on the other hand, will need to take wickets regularly and they do have a good bowling attack. Can they defend this?
Kagiso Rabada is in for a chat. He says there was some movement upfront and is happy about the collective effort. Mentions, the wickets they took in the middle overs really helped them to put the opposition under pressure. Further says, the deck is a little sticky and hence they aimed to bowl the hard length. Says it isn't tricky for the batters, they only need to apply themselves.
Punjab were brilliant with the ball at the start! However, they let things slip away in the middle overs but pulled things back brilliantly towards the end. Kagiso Rabada was the star for them with a four-fer. Sharma and Chahar gave him really good support. The two overs from Livingstone was not the best but the others covered up for that.
Lucknow though will be disappointed with how they have ended! They were in pole position to get to 160 after de Kock and Hooda managed to steady things after the fall of Rahul. Once de Kock fell though, it was a procession. They went from 98 for 2 to 126 for 7. The tail though wagged for them, they managed to hit a few crucial hits towards the end which has got Lucknow to a score which can be considered a competitive one.
Lucknow have crawled their way to over 150 but we are pretty sure Punjab would have taken 153 at the toss had they been offered. They will be pretty pleased with their effort heading into the break.
19.6 overs (4 Runs) FOUR! Mohsin Khan ends the innings with a boundary. Exceptional shot. Full length, outside off. Mohsin Khan drives it through covers. He gets it through the gap and into the fence. Lucknow end their innings at 153/8.
