SRH vs PBKS: Watch - Shikhar Dhawan Chops One Onto His Own Stumps Off Fazalhaq Farooqi’s Bowling

Shikhar Dhawan of Punjab Kings (PBKS) lost his wicket after playing 32 balls to Fazalhaq Farooqi against Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) in the 70^th and final league match of the IPL 2022. This match was only played for pride by the two teams, as they were both eliminated from the race for playoffs.

Kane Williamson had returned to New Zealand for the birth of his child and hence Bhuvneshwar Kumar captained the SRH team in this match. He also won the toss and chose to bat first. SRH made two changes as Romario Shepherd replaced Williamson and J Suchith came in for T Natarajan.

For Punjab Kings, Prerak Mankad made his IPL debut, Shahrukh Khan came in and Nathan Ellis made his second appearance in the tournament.

Kagiso Rabada gave PBKS a good start as Priyam Garg was dismissed for 4 runs. Then Abhishek Sharma, who made 43 in 32 balls with 5 fours and 1 six and Rahul Tripathi with 20 runs added 47 runs for the second wicket.

Nathan Ellis (3/40) and Harpreet Brar (3/26) then kept SRH to 157/8 in 20 overs. SRH managed to reach that par total thanks to 25 from Washington Sundar and 26* from Romario Shepherd.

Punjab Kings (PBKS) started off well with Jonny Bairstow slamming 5 fours in his 23 before being clean bowled by Fazalhaq Farooqi.
