The West Indies batsman punished Porel for bowling short and wide, blasting four boundaries in the fourth over. Put in to bat, Jaiswal and Lewis gave RR a flying start with the former smashing two successive fours off Shami in the first over and the latter smacking Ishan Porel, also playing his first match, for a six. However, in the last three overs, Shami claimed three wickets and Arshdeep completed his five-for to wrap up the RR innings. Lomror then smashed his way to a 17-ball 43, studded with four sixes and two fours. Markram and Pooran then played some delightful shots to keep their chase on track before they were undone by a brilliant last-over by Tyagi.Įarlier, opener Jaiswal was part of two vital partnerships, adding 54 with his new opening partner Evin Lewis (36) and then sharing another 48 off 28 balls with Liam Livingstone (25). Once the Punjab skipper was caught off Chetan Sakariya (1/31) in 12th over, Agarwal too was removed by Rahul Tewatia (1/23).

With Aiden Markram (26 not out) and Nicholas Pooran (32) going strong, it looked like it would be only a matter of time when Punjab would wrap up the match.īut in the end, Punjab made a mess in the last over to suffer their sixth defeat from nine matches.

Punjab ended their innings at 183 for four, chasing 186 to win.
