 Punjab 77-3 (10 ovs) vs Kolkata | Scorecard

Maxwell was watchful against Narine in his first over but in his next he comes down the track and drives it through the covers for a four.

Two balls later he attempts the reverse paddle but the ball slides down the leg side as wicketkeeper Robin Uthappa fails to get it and gives away four byes.

Maxwell's counter-attack is playing a big role in Punjab's revival. A full delivery by Russell which Maxwell flicks over deep square leg for a six.

He throws his bat at one outside the off-stump but it is called a wide. A frustrated Russell attempts a bouncer which goes high over Maxwell and is called a wide for height.

Bailey is also looking good from the start. He plays a pull shot for a single to deep square leg to bring Maxwell back on strike.

After 10 overs, Punjab have recovered to 77 for three.

Maxwell has smashed 28 from 21 balls, while Bailey has made 16 from 14 balls with the two batsmen putting on 50 runs from 36 balls for the fourth wicket.
