PBKS vs RR | Hetmyer cameo powers Royals past Punjab Kings
After Yashasvi Jaiswal top-scored with 39 (28b, 4×4), Shimron Hetmyer (27 n.o., 10b, 1×4, 3×6) held his nerve to assist Rajasthan Royals (RR) beat Punjab Kings (PBKS) by three wickets within the ongoing Indian Premier League (IPL) on the Maharaja Yadavindra Singh worldwide cricket stadium right here on Saturday.
With 10 wanted off the final over, Arshdeep Singh nailed a few large yorkers for dot balls. Hetmyer then hit a straight six, picked up a double, and hit a six once more over the fine-leg boundary.
The match shocked even earlier than it started.
Sam Curran, not Shikhar Dhawan, walked out for the toss for Kings. Dhawan, out with a niggle, had been changed by Atharva Taide, knowledgeable Curran.
It was then Royals captain Sanju Samson’s flip to shock. He revealed that Jos Buttler and R. Ashwin, each out with their very own niggles, had been changed by Rovman Powell and — Samson discovered it arduous to recollect the identify — Tanush Kotian. All-rounder Kotian was the Participant-of-the-Event in Mumbai’s current title-winning Ranji Trophy marketing campaign.
Then, it was a bore snore of an total batting show by Kings to get to 147 for eight.
Solely 38 runs had been scored within the PowerPlay with 14 dot balls. As laboriously as somebody tethered to a rock would, Kings panted and heaved their method to 53 for 4 in 10 overs.
Within the subsequent 10 overs, Jitesh Sharma (29, 24b, 1×4, 2×6), Liam Livingstone (21, 14b, 2×4, 1×6), and Ashutosh Sharma (31, 16b, 1×4, 3×6) dazzled like Ninja Turtles in a fight, solely in components.
And there was shock once more when Royals started their chase. Kotian, who usually bats at Nos. 8, 9, and 10 for Mumbai within the Ranji Trophy, opened the batting with Jaiswal.
The openers, although not at their dashing finest, managed to get their group to 50 in 7.1 overs. Even after Kotian fell, Jaiswal and Samson gave the impression to be in charge of the chase. However Kagiso Rabada had them each dismissed in consecutive overs. And Royals, kudos to Kings for the best way they bowled and fielded, briefly struggled to be assertive.
With 20 runs wanted off 12 balls, Rovman Powell hit back-to-back fours to deliver the equation all the way down to 12 off 10 balls. However the remaining shock of the match unfolded then. Curran had Powell caught behind off a brief ball and Maharaj holed out to lengthy on within the final ball of that over.
