Bhuvneshwar bowls Sunrisers to victory vs Punjab

April 17, 2017 23:36

Punjab 154-all out (19.4 ovs) vs Hyderabad 159-6 | Scorecard

Punjab pacer Siddharth Kaul to bowl the final over. Sandeep scoops the first ball over the short fine leg fielder for two runs before he bowls a wide outside the off-stump.

Sandeep takes a single before Kaul bowls another wide down the leg side to Ishant. The next ball is a full toss but Ishant gently defends it back to the bowler.

Kaul finishes off the match as he bowls Ishant with a superb yorker which crashes into the base of the off-stump.

Punjab are bowled out for 154 in 19.4 overs to lose by a narrow margin of five runs in a thrilling contest in Hyderabad.

It was a superb run chase as Vohra single-handedly threatened to steer Punjab to victory with a magnificent innings of 95 from 50 balls. But the experience of Bhuvneshwar proved crucial especially in the death overs as he claimed two wickets in the penultimate over, including Vohra, to finish with five for 19 and steer his team to victory.
