Vaibhav Arora to Bartlett, out Bartlett Run Out!! 1 run completed. Where was Bartlett going? A total brainfade as he leaves for the second run even as the throw is coming in from the deep. And that pretty much sums it all up for the Punjab Kings who have been bowled out for 111. Good length on middle, he makes room and drives hard to long-on. They both seemed to have settled for the single but then Bartlett turned around and ran for some reason, only to be turned down by Arshdeep. He had no chance of making it back. Bartlett run out (Venkatesh Iyer/Vaibhav Arora) 11(15) [4s-1]

Vaibhav Arora to Shashank Singh, out Lbw!! This looks very close and the finger has gone up. Shashank has no choice but to review. No point saving it now. It's a good length ball angling back in, he gets forward to push it down the ground but is beaten on the inside edge. Gets hit on the knee-roll in front of middle, and ball-tracking says it would've crashed into leg. Shashank Singh lbw b Vaibhav Arora 18(17) [4s-1 6s-1]

Vaibhav Arora to Priyansh Arya, 1 run, 20 off the over. Priyansh stabs the back of a length delivery square on the off-side for a strike-retaining single

Vaibhav Arora to Priyansh Arya, FOUR, a couple of mini strides down the pitch and bam! Priyansh was waiting for width and the length was ideal for him to smash the pull over mid-on with an air of authority
2.4
Vaibhav Arora to Prabhsimran, 1 run, nice adjustment from Vaibhav Arora. He saw Prabhsimran charging at him and shortened the length at I0$, Prabhsimran restrains his flick and ends up nudging it into the mid-wicket pocket for a quick single

Vaibhav Arora to Prabhsimran, FOUR, now he comes down the pitch to force it down the ground. I0$ good length just outside off, Prabhsimran meets it on a fuller length and thump the ball over mid-off with superb timing

Vaibhav Arora to Prabhsimran, SIX, too prediectable from Vaibhav Arora. Just getting the ball to swing in from a fuller length. Prabhsimran was up and about on the back foot, whiplashing that for a nonchalant maximum over mid-wicket. Effortless!

Vaibhav Arora to Prabhsimran, FOUR, oh dear! Did he get a hand on it? Looks like it. Premeditated shot from Prabhsimran. Shuffled across and went for the scoop just outside off, met the ball on a fuller length and skewed it off a tiny inside edge. Flicks the outstretched diving palm of Nortje and rushes away to the boundary fence
