1/8
A typical fast start from Travishek – neither Travis Head nor Abhishek Sharma were able to motor and get the really big one, but both provided quickfire 30s to provide the early impetus. They provided the platform in the powerplay for the remaining batting to take advantage.(PTI)
2/8
Sunrisers Hyderabad head to the top of the pile in the IPL table after winning their sixth match in seven games. Punjab's slowdown in form hurts them, but what will hurt more was how poor they were in the field, costing too many chances. A Cooper Connolly century goes in vain.(ANI Picture Service)
3/8
The true problem for Punjab Kings was their fielding – a surfeit of dropped chances, highlighted by Shashank Singh continuing to be wasteful in the field, but two other dropped catches and a missed stumping giving Ishan Kishan and Heinrich Klaasen bonus lives.(ANI Picture Service)
4/8
Heinrich Klaasen took back the Orange Cap with a fine knock of 69(43). On a surface that was not the most comfortable to bat on, Klaasen picked his moments to go after the bowlers, hammering four sixes. (ANI Picture Service)
