Punjab Kings 88-1 (8 Ovs) vs CSK 209-5 | SCORECARD
Khaleel Ahmed continues, and Prabhsimran Singh swings and misses first up. He then adjusts well to a slower ball, guiding it fine for a boundary. Five runs come off the over.
Noor Ahmad is brought into the attack, replacing Henry. Prabhsimran nudges one to deep backward square leg for a single, while Cooper Connolly taps one down to long-on for another. Prabhsimran then goes big -- launching a massive six! He swings hard again but misses, and the next delivery rises sharply, hitting him on the grille. The physio is quickly out for a concussion check.
After the brief pause, Prabhsimran composes himself, defends one, and then finishes the over with a crisp boundary.
12 runs come off it, taking Punjab Kings to 80 for 1 after 6 overs. They now need 130 runs from 78 balls.
Rahul Chahar is brought into the attack. Connolly starts with a single to long-on. There’s another loud LBW appeal, but it’s turned down again. Prabhsimran nudges one to long-on, and the batters continue to rotate strike with singles. A boundary to finish the over keeps the momentum going.
Eight runs come off it, taking Punjab Kings to 88 for 1 after 8 overs. They now need 122 from 72 balls.
It’s the first strategic timeout, and PBKS are cruising at the moment. CSK, on the other hand, are in desperate need of wickets to pull things back.
