Sunrisers 57-3 (10 ovs) vs Punjab |  Scorecard

The wickets keep tumbling for Sunrisers. This time Shakib Al Hasan lashes at a wide delivery from Sran but ends up offering a simple catch to the fielder at the thirdman boundary.

But Shakib gets a reprieve as Sran has overstepped to give away a no-ball and also a free hit.

Shakib then despatches the free hit through square leg for a four and two balls later cuts it for the same result as Sunrisers reach 37 for three in six overs.

Spin introduced as Ashwin brings himself into the attack, to bowl the seventh over.

He makes a tidy start, conceding just three singles from his first over with Shakib having a close shave off the last ball, a casual effort in taking the single but he manages to beat the direct hit.

Manoj Tiwary comes into the attack and he is bowling with a slingy low round arm action.

Shakib and Pandey pick up 10 easy runs from the over with Tiwary not making much impact with his new action.

Ashwin bowls another tight over, giving away four, with Sunrisers content to rebuild their innings with some cautions batting especially against Ashwin.

Tiwary is taken off as he makes way for Mujeeb ur Rahman. He also send down a tight over, giving away just three as Sunrisers struggle to 57 for three in 10 overs, with Pandey on 17 and Shakib on 18.
