11:14 PM

Hyderabad steal a win by 2 runs

That would be called a wide. Pressure is clearly being seen on Unadkta's face here. He is sticking to the game plan of bowling short and into the wicket because full is definitely travelling big time here. It is 10 from two balls now and he has been put down. But it is only a single which means that it is 9 of 1. Shashank Singh is on strike, but even a six by him would not be enough as Hyderbad has stolen a win by two runs. 

11:11 PM

Punjab Kings need 11 off 2 to win

Would you believe it? This is another six here as Unakat has been hit straight down the ground and this time it is Abdul Samad who drops Ashutosh at long-off and it goes for a six. Two runs were taken and now it is 13 off 3 balls to win. Two taken again and it is 11 off 2 now

11:09 PM

Punjab Kings need 21 off 5 to win

Six off the first ball as Nitish Reddy drops a catch here. This is not ideal for Hyderbad here as Unadkat bowls a wide as well. Now 22 needed off five to get. Very much possible, Unadkat bowls yet another wide here and now it is 21 off five. 

11:07 PM

Punjab Kings need 29 off 6 to win

 

Over Summary: 1 4 0 1 4 0; PBKS Score 154-6 after 19 overs

Sashank Singh (40), Ashutosh Sharma (16); T Natarajan 4-0-33-1

 

After being cubbed for a four, Natarajan gets back on the length and nails the yorkers one by one to give away only seven off the first four balls. Shashank Singh gets four, but Punjab will be cursing themselves for two reasons, first to allow Unadkat to hit a six off the last ball and then to keep Shashank and Ashutosh back in the hut for so long. 

 

Just 10 off the over as 29 is now needed off the last six balls, which is almost impossible to get even for someone like Ashutosh Sharma. 

 

11:03 PM

Punjab Kings need 39 off 12 to win

 

Over Summary: 1 4 4 1 1 0; PBKS Score 144-6 after 18 overs

Sashank Singh (35), Ashutosh Sharma (11); Pat Cummins 4-0-22-1

 

Two stunning fours from Ashutosh Sharma, but only 11 off the over when Punjab needed at least 16 from it to keep the hopes alive. Hopes are still there as 39 is needed off 12 to win. 

 

11:00 PM

Can Shashank and Ashutosh recreate Ahmedabad?

 

Over Summary: 4 4 1 1 4 Wd Wd 1; PBKS Score 133-6 after 17 overs

Sashank Singh (33), Ashutosh Sharma (2); Bhuvneshwar Kumar 4-1-32-2

 

This is stunning batting from Shashank Singh here as he has taken 17 off a Bhuvneshwar Kumar's over. Now 47 needed off the last 18 balls. 

 

10:53 PM

Reddy gets Jitesh

 

Over Summary: 2 Wd 6 W 1 1 0; PBKS Score 116-6 after 16 overs

Sashank Singh (19), Ashutosh Sharma (1); Nitish Reddy 3-0-33-1

 

Jitesh Sharma's off-clours IPL continues to remain that way as he has once again lost his wicket at a crucial juncture. Nitish Reddy gets the wicket. 

 

10:51 PM

Eight from Natarajan's over

 

Over Summary: 1 1 1 4 0 1; PBKS Score 105-5 after 15 overs

Sashank Singh (18), Jitesh Sharma (11); T Natarajan 3-0-23-1

 

Natarajan has bowled a good over here and the pressure keeps on mounting on the Punjab batters. 

 

10:43 PM

Unadkat gets Raza

 

Over Summary: W 1 1 2 2 0; PBKS Score 97-5 after 14 overs

Sashank Singh (16), Jitesh Sharma (5); Jaydev Unadkat 3-0-23-1

 

And another blow to Punjab's hopes here as Sikandar Raza,m trying to get quick runs, has been caught behind as he was looking to play the paddle scoop on a slower ball. 

 

10:39 PM

Second time-out

 

Over Summary: 1 1 0 0 1 4; PBKS Score 91-4 after 13 overs

Sashank Singh (15), Sikandar Raza (28); Pat Cummins 3-0-11-1

 

Cummins realised the importance of this moment and as a result, brought himself into the attack. However, Sashank hits a four nonetheless and keeps runs coming for Punjab. 

 

10:31 PM

Raza hits a huge six

 

Over Summary: 1 1 1 6 0 1; PBKS Score 84-4 after 12 overs

Sashank Singh (10), Sikandar Raza (26); Shahbaz Ahmed 1-0-10-0

 

Wow!! That's a huge six from Raza who goes down one knee and smacks it over the deep square leg. But again it's the same problem of only one boundary per over and not more for the Kings. 

 

10:29 PM

Just 8 from the over

 

Over Summary: 6 0 0 1 0 1; PBKS Score 74-4 after 11 overs

Sashank Singh (8), Sikandar Raza (18); Jaydev Unadkat 2-0-17-0

 

Even after hitting the first ball for a six, the Punjab Kings batters have failed to convert the good start into a great over as they get only two more off the next five balls.
