Rajasthan Royals, on Saturday (April 13), beat Punjab Kings by three wickets in a thrilling game to return to winning ways in IPL 2024. Set a target of 148, RR crossed the finishing line with a ball remaining.
RR were off to a good start with Yashasvi Jaiswal and his new opening partner Tanush Kotian adding 56 runs for the first wicket. Liam Livingstone broke the stand by dismissing Kotian for 24. Jaiswal and Sanju Samson then added 26 runs for the second wicket before both of them departed in quick succession.

It was followed by a 21-run stand between Shimron Hetmyer and Rovman Powell. With both the batsmen going well, it looked like they would take RR home easily. However, Sam Curran dismissed Powell as well as Keshav Maharaj in the 19th over to turn the game on its head. In the final over, RR needed 10 runs and Hetmyer made no mistake in taking his team home.
