Vohra slams 31-ball fifty to put Punjab in control vs Pune

April 17, 2016 18:46

Punjab 96-0 (12 ovs) vs Pune 152-4 | SCORECARD

Medium pacer Thisara Perera comes into the attack as Vohra is quick to get after him with a hat-trick of fours. The first ball is poor, full and on the pads which he laps fine on the leg side for a four followed by two more boundaries through the off-side.

Three more singles as Perera goes for 15 runs in his first over, which brings the asking rate down to 7.4 with 67 needed from 54 balls.

Just a single over for Pathan before he makes way for leg-spinner Murugan. Vohra makes room and carves the first ball over the thirdman field for a boundary.

He turns the second ball through midwicket for two runs followed by a single to race to his fifty, from 31 balls.

Another profitable over for Punjab as Ashwin concedes 10 with the hosts reaching 96 for no loss in 12 overs.
