The match was full of events and moments that ultimately fixed the direction of the momentum. The knocks from Ayush Mhatre, Sarfaraz Khan, Shivam Dube, and from the PBKS' end, the impact brought by Priyansh Arya, the run out of Prabhsimran Singh, Shreyas Iyer's leadership with the— these all are the exciting turns in the contest.
The joy for the team was short-lived as the CSK skipper, Ruturaj Gaikwad, and Ayush Mhatre pulled the team out of the mud and stitched a needful partnership. From the middle-order, it was Sarfaraz Khan and Shivam Dube who were spectacular with their batting parts, especially Sarfaraz, with his delicate touch using the flexible wrists.
Another captain's knock by Shreyas Iyer
If the explosive cameo of Arya was the starter of the PBKS batting part, captain Shreyas Iyer brought the cherry to garnish the team effort. Iyer's half-century confirmed the win for Punjab. Two wins in two matches for the Punjab Kings, and two defeats in two games for the Chennai Super Kings.
Priyansh and Prab doing the job- Shreyas Iyer
"I think that was an exceptional start for us. Priyansh and Prab doing the job at the start and then setting the bench for us going inside. And I personally feel that the way they've been batting over years now, it's phenomenal to see them giving us that start and it stabilizes the rhythm for us. Yes, absolutely. I'm glad that everyone is getting to bat in the first two games itself," Shreyas Iyer said in the presentation ceremony.
"We've just decided in the dressing room that whatever happens, we are going to play a brand of cricket which is to impress each other, not others outside. So, you know, that gives us a certain sort of clarity as well when we approach the game," he added.
