And out of nowhere, Prabhsimran skies one, and is caught in the deep by David Warner. He is out for 26 from 17 balls.

Prabhsimran going well

For now, Prabhsimran and Sam Curran are pairing well as the partnership is 40 already. Punjab moves to 83/2 in 9 overs.

Not a good start for him here. After four singles, Curran gets a four against Kuldeep. PBKS 75/2 in 8 overs.

Axar into the attack

On his very first ball Axar appeals for an LBW against Prabhsimran. And it’s not out. The batsman danced down the track, and the ball hit his pad. He’s safe though. PBKS 67/2 in 7 overs.

Curran into the act

And now Curran starts with a four in the next Mitch Marsh over. Punjab going well at the moment. Okay, looks like Ishant Sharma has twisted his ankle. And it’s not looking good at the moment.

Dhawan continues

Another boundary comes at the start of the over and Dhawan is in total control for now. Punjab Kings are going fairly well. It’s 34/0 after 3 overs.

Ishant Sharma into the attack

Ishant doesn’t start well after a boundary is hit and then a few wides. He looks a bit rusty for now. It is 24/0 in 2 overs.

PBKS with solid start

In the very first over Punjab Kings have scored 17 runs. What a start for the team. Punjab 17/0 after 1 over.

PANT comes into bat

Pant is off the mark just on his second delivery. What’s in store for us here? And it needs to be said that he’s looking confident, dancing down the track and stealing singles. Another over comes to an end and it’s 79/2 after 9 overs.

Another change in bowling

Harshal Patel starts with a bad one. David Warner cracks one through point for a four. DC is doing well at the moment, and looking set for a big total. A decent over in the end for PBKS. And wait, looks like we have a wicket here. Warner tries to pull a short one, but misses it. He’s out for 29. DC 74/2 in 8 overs.

Time for Rahul Chahar

And on the other end, it’s leg spinner Chahar. Looks like it will be a little difficult for the batsmen, against spinners on this pitch. Finally Shai breaks the shackles and smashes a six. That is followed by a boundary. 14 runs come from the over as DC 68/1 after 7 overs.
