Strategic Time-Out! Punjab needed a really strong start and Mayank Agarwal and Shikhar Dhawan have given them just that. The wicket is a belter but the bowling has been ordinary from Bangalore, especially given the likes of David Willey and Mohammed Siraj being experienced campaigners. Punjab need more than a strong start to win and Bangalore will feel that a couple of wickets will bring down the scoring rate quite a fair bit. Also, Akash Deep comes into the attack now.

5.2 overs (4 Runs) FOUR! Good start to the over! A full ball, on off. Dhawan skips down and tonks it towards long on for a boundary. The boundary just landed inches before the ropes and hence a boundary.
5.1 overs (1 Run) Very full and on off, drilled down to long on for a single.
