Punjab will face Sunrisers Hyderabad in the 14th edition of IPL 2021. Punjab’s explosive batting has failed miserably than the best of Hyderabad bowlers. Batting first after winning the toss, Punjab were all out for 120 in 19.4 overs. T20 specialist batsmen Chris Gayle and Nicholas Pooran have done nothing special. Puran returned to the pavilion without opening an account for the third time this season. David Warner hit the stump with a straight delivery.
In fact, in the first delivery of the 8th over of the innings, Chris Gayle played Vijay Shankar’s ball lightly and ran for a run. David Warner, who was fielding near the cover, fled to take a run after seeing Nicholas Pooran Gale standing on the other end, and his throw came on a straight stump. Puran stayed away from the crease and returned to the pavilion without playing any ball. Nicholas Puran is the first batsman in IPL history to dismiss two balls, one ball and no ball in a zero-score.
