Shahrukh khan’s fighting innings comes to an end, he is dismissed by Sam Curran as he looks to pull the slower bouncer and is caught by Ravindra Jadeja in the deep.
The cricketer from Tamil Nadu walked into bat when the Punjab Kings were in a miserable position. He helped his team to get past the hundred-run mark which allowed them to breathe slightly easily but nearly missed his fifty. His rescuing knock included four 4s and two 6s which allowed the Kings to post the target of 106 runs.
He tried building up a partnership with J.Richardson before it was cut short by Moeen Ali as Richardson departed for 15. His innings began to gain some momentum as he approached his fifty but he was dismissed for 47 by Sam Curran.
