Royals 53-0 (5 ovs) vs Punjab | Scorecard

Some width from Shami as Jaiswal throws his bat for a single to thirdman and Lewis is beaten as he looks to smash the full delivery from Shami down the ground as the ball moves away slightly to go past the edge.

Another cracking delivery from Shami, full and moving away, as Lewis pokes and is beaten.

Lewis finally gets one off the middle as he smashes Shami back over his head for a four.

In the next over, Jaiswal pulls Porel for a single before Lewis throws his bat at the wide delivery but gets a thick edge which flies over short thirdman for a four.

He again gets an edge off the next ball for the same result for the second four in a row off the outside half of the bat.

Lewis mistimes the slower ball as he chips it uppishly but short of the fielder at mid-on.

Porel drops short as Lewis pulls a thumping pull over midwicket for a four.

The last ball is full but right in the slot as the West Indian drills it through the covers for the fourth boundary of the over.

17 runs from the over as Royals race to 40 for no loss in four overs.

Punjab introduce spin as Deepak Hooda comes into the attack. The first ball is short and wide as Jaiswal punches it through the covers for a four and then takes a single on the leg side.

Lewis tries the sweep but is beaten and hit on the pads before he lofts a full toss over the fielder at mid-off for a four.

He sweeps the last ball behind square past the fielder at short fine leg for another boundary as Royals go past the 50-run mark, in the fifth over.
