KKR 169-3 (15 ovs) vs Punjab | Scorecard

Mohit comes back as Andre Russell picks a single off the first ball and Karthik does the same off the next.

Russell makes his intentions clear as he heaves the third ball over midwicket for a six and then punches the fifth ball to long-on for one.

A single to Karthik off the last ball as Mohit concedes 10 in his third over.

With Ashwin going for runs, Axar continues with the ball. Karthik steers the first ball fine on the off-side for two runs before he sweeps the next as Tye at deep square leg fumbles near the boundary to give away a four.

Two balls later, Russell sweeps it powerfully square on the leg side for a six.

Two balls later, he slog sweeps Axar and this time it goes ever further, infact out of the ground for the second six of the over.

19 runs from the over as Axar finishes with expensive figures of 52 runs from four overs.

KKR on course for a huge total as they reach 169 for three in 15 overs, with Russell on 22 from 10 balls and Karthik on 19 from 10 balls.
