Punjab 142-2 (14 ovs) vs Royals 185 | Scorecard

Leg-spinner Tewatia comes back into the attack. Mayank flicks the first ball through midwicket for a couple and takes a single off the next.

Aiden Markram drives the third ball straight as the bowlers fails to stop it and concedes just a single.

Tewatia gives his team hope as he strikes with the wicket of Mayank. The Punjab opener, who smashed 67 from 43 balls, tries to play the inside out lofted shot but ends up carving it straight into the hands of Livingstone at sweeper cover.

Leg-spinner Parag comes into the attack. He starts with a short ball which Nicholas Pooran pulls for two runs to get off the mark before he clips the next through leg side for another couple of runs.

Another leg side delivery which Pooran clips fine for a single and Markram pulls the fourth ball fine for a boundary and then takes a single to long-off.

The last ball is a half-tracker as Pooran pulls it powerfully over midwicket for a six, as Parag goes for 16 in his first over.

Punjab in complete control with 44 needed from six overs for victory with eight wickets in hand.
