PBKS vs RR, IPL 2024: Rajasthan Royals Brave Accurate Punjab Kings Bowlers, Slow Pitch To Register Three-Wicket Win | Cricket News

Rajasthan Royals struggled against Punjab Kings bowlers who took the pace off the ball cleverly on a sticky pitch but found enough steam to eke out a hardworking three-wicket win in their IPL 2024 match at Mullanpur on Saturday. The target was a rather easy-looking 148 but a set of spot-on Punjab bowlers and a tacky surface made the task of Royals tough before they made 152 for seven. The Rajasthan outfit required 49 runs off the last five overs, but they had to wait till the penultimate ball of the match to get over the line despite having power-hitters like Rovman Powell (11, 5b) and Shimron Hetmyer (27 not out, 10b, 1x4, 3x6) in their ranks.That equation came down to 10 off the final six balls after Hetmyer moussed Harshal Patel for a six and four, which the West Indian left-hander r...

Rajasthan Royals kept dismissing rival batters as PBKS could not even touch 150-mark in 20 overs.While there were moments of brilliance from Rajasthan Royals skipper Sanju Samson, including the run out of Liam Livingstone, there were moments where he committed massive mess. Right at the start of the RR innings, he and Kuldip Sen almost dropped a  catch. Then, in the 19th over, he did not pay heed to Avesh Khan's call as he charge...

Avesh Khan gave away just 4 runs in his final over© X (Twitter)Rajasthan Royals pacer Avesh Khan feels the last over he bowled against Delhi Capitals in an IPL match was probably his best effort in the death overs.

India now lead the three-match series 1-0. Having gone into the match without a single wicket in his previous three ODI appearances, Arshdeep more than made up for it with his maiden five-wicket haul as South Africa were all-out for 116 in 27.3 overs.The target was surpassed in only 16.4 overs.Playing their first 50-over game post the World Cup final, it seemed that Arshdeep (5/37 in 10 overs) and Avesh (4/27 in 8 overs) had picked up a cue from their seniors Mohammed Shami and Jasprit Bumrah as a quality Proteas batting line-up was made to look like novices on a track that offe...
