PBKS 147-8 (20 ovs) vs RR | Scorecard


 Punjab Kings put up a shoddy show with the bat to be restricted to 147 for eight by Rajasthan Royals in their IPL match in Mullanpur on Saturday.


Asked to bat first, Punjab Kings, who are without their skipper Shikhar Dhawan, didn't get any momentum in their innings with lower-order batter Ashutosh Sharma (31), Jitesh Sharma (29) and Liam Livingstone (21) managing to take the team close to the 150-mark.

Keshav Maharaj (2/23) and Avesh Khan (2/34) picked up two wickets each, while Trent Boult (1/22), Kuldeep Sen (1/35) and Yuzvendra Chahal (1/31) bagged one each.

Avesh breaks 33-run partnership between Jitesh and Livingstone as he comes back into the attack.


Boult back in the attack to bowl the final over. A dot to start the over before Ashutosh carves the ball to deep point for a four!

A dot later, Ashutosh plays the ball to deep square leg for a single.

Harpreet then takes a single before Ashutosh is caught at backward point as he miscues a pull and is caught out for 31 off 16. Punjab put on 147 for 8 in their 20 overs. 


Avesh continues and Harpreet takes a single first ball before Ashutosh is dropped by Samson and he gets a couple.

He smashes a six next ball over deep mid-wicket.

An overthrow allows Ashutosh a couple.

Ashutosh makes room and slices it over long off for a six!

A single to end the over as 18 come off it.
