May 21, 2016 16:33

Punjab 52-0 (6 ovs) vs Pune | Scorecard

Punjab's openers content to play risk-free cricket at the moment and look to play to the merit of the ball as they get their eye in. But after a steady start, it seems both of them have decided to change a gear.

Chahar bowls two wides to Amla before his partner Vijay slams the fifth ball over long-on for a six and nudges the last ball fine for a four to break the shackles.

Chahar goes for 15 runs in his second over as Punjab reach 40 for no loss in five overs.

Sri Lankan Thisara Perera comes into the attack. Vijay continues his positive approach as he slaps the third ball straight down the ground, past mid-on for a four.

Amla joins the fray as he hoists the fifth ball over long-off for a six as Punjab reach 52 for no loss in six overs.
