Lucknow Super Giants’ brilliant performance with the ball in 2nd consecutive game helped them win their 6th game of IPL 2022 as they beat Punjab Kings by 20 runs.

In the first innings, Punjab Kings started well as they got the wicket of KL Rahul in the third over itself. But then Quinton de Kock and Deepak Hooda added 85 runs for the 2nd wicket and steadied the ship for Lucknow Super Giants.

Quinton de Kock got out in the 13th over and after that LSG just kept losing wickets at regular intervals. Deepak Hooda departed for 34 runs courtesy of a brilliant run-out from Jonny Bairstow from deep square leg.

Hooda’s run-out completely changed the momentum in the favour of PBKS as they continued to chip away with wickets. But some late order hitting by Dusmantha Chameera and Mohsin Khan took LSG to 153.

Punjab Kings started well but lost back to back wickets as Mayank Agarwal could not convert his great start into a big score and Dhawan never got going at all.

Bhanuka Rajapaksa too couldn’t get going in the game as he was dismissed for a low score by Krunal Pandya.

Liam Livingstone and Bairstow were looking good but then Livingstone in trying to play a cheeky shot got out to Mohsin Khan. Pandya then returned to account for Jitesh Sharma.

Jonny Bairstow too departed soon after as he tried to go after Chameera. In the end, Rishi Dhawan tried his best but his heavy blows were just not enough for PBKS to win the game as they lost by 20 runs.
