SRH vs PBKS Highlights - Sunrisers Hyderabad vs Punjab Kings, Indian Premier League Match Today in Sharjah Cricket Stadium in UAE

IPL 2021 Highlights, Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) vs Punjab Kings (PBKS): The fans were treated to a low-scoring thriller in Sharjah, which at one point looked one-way traffic. SRH needed 126 to win in 120 balls. But they got off to a worse start than PBKS. Mohammed Shami got rid of David Warner (2) and Kane Williamson (1) to jolt the opposition's chase. Ravi Bishnoi then outfoxed Manish Pandey, castling him with a googly. He went on to pick two more wickets, Kedar Jadhav (12) and Abdul Samad (1), to dent SRH's chances further. Once Wriddhiman Saha got out for 31, Holder took charge and smashed 47 off 29 balls. However, it didn't prove to be enough as PBKS won by 5 runs. In the first innings, the Punjab Kings got off to a horrible start as they could only manage to score 29/2 in the Powerplay. Both openers KL Rahul (21) and Mayank Agarwal (5) were dismissed in the same over by Jason Holder, who rocked PBKS in his very first over. Soon after, Chris Gayle (14) and Nicholas Pooran (8) were dismissed by Rashid Khan and Sandeep Sharma, respectively. Aiden Markram (27) was the top scorer as Holder finished with 3/19 to help SRH restrict PBKS to 125/7....Read More

What a game in the end!

Irrespective of where Punjab stand in the points table, they surely know how to provide entertainment to the viewers. After posting 125/7, they looked down and out but an inspiring show from their bowlers, led by a three-wicket haul from Ravi Bishnoi and a double strike from Shami, saw Punjab home to a five-run win. A low-scoring encounter at SHARJAH!

FOUR! The first boundary of the evening comes off Rahul's bat. He advances down the track, makes room and looks to go up and over the off-side but the ball runs over the slip fielder off a thick outside edge for four.

THREE RUNS! Batsmen running 3 in Sharjah is such a rarity. But Mayank and Rahul pick a triple through the backward point area. It was because of a scintillating Mayank drive on the up and Abdul Samad giving it a chase, pulling the ball back on time and saving 1.
