PBKS skipper Shreyas Iyer won the toss and chose to field first at Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium in Hyderabad.<\/p>\n<p>SRH were off to a flying start, courtesy of a 54-run opening stand off 21 balls from Travis Head and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportskeeda.com\/player\/abhishek-sharma-cricket\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" data-is-sponsored=\"false\">Abhishek Sharma<\/a>. Heinrich Klaasen (69 off 43) and Ishan Kishan (55 off 32) continued their wonderful form, notching up fine half-centuries.<\/p>\n<p>Nitish Reddy also chipped in with an impactful cameo, remaining unbeaten on 29 off 13 balls. SRH finished on 235\/4 in 20 overs, recording their highest first innings score against PBKS. Arshdeep Singh, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportskeeda.com\/player\/lockie-ferguson\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" data-is-sponsored=\"false\">Lockie Ferguson<\/a>, Yuzvendra Chahal, and Vijaykumar Vyshak picked up one wicket each.<\/p>\n<p><template id=\"also-read-articles-template\"><\/p>\n<p><\/template><\/p>\n<p>Punjab were off to a poor start with the bat, losing four wickets within seven overs. Cooper Connolly gave them some hope with his unbeaten century. However, his 107* off 59 balls went in vain as PBKS ended at 202\/7 after 20 overs. SRH skipper <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportskeeda.com\/player\/pj-cummins\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" data-is-sponsored=\"false\">Pat Cummins<\/a> was the pick of the bowlers, bagging two important scalps.<\/p>\n<p>Here, we look at three moments from the clash that generated a buzz among the fans.<\/p>\n<hr\/>\n<h2>#3 Abhishek Sharma slams authoritative first-over six off Arshdeep Singh<\/h2>\n<p>SRH opener Abhishek Sharma was up against his Punjab state teammate Arshdeep Singh in the powerplay. The left-arm pacer started with a yorker outside the off stump.<\/p>\n<p>However, he missed his length on the next ball, and Abhishek capitalized on it. The swashbuckling batter cleared the long-off fence for the first maximum of the match. He did not hit it too hard and backed his timing to do the job.<\/p>\n<p>Watch the video here:<\/p>\n<hr\/>\n<h2>#2 SRH take early advantage by removing PBKS openers off successive deliveries<\/h2>\n<p>The onus was on PBKS openers <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportskeeda.com\/player\/priyansh-arya\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" data-is-sponsored=\"false\">Priyansh Arya<\/a> and Prabhsimran Singh to take down the SRH bowlers in the powerplay. Their opening stand was going to be key against the daunting target.<\/p>\n<p>However, Pat Cummins drew first blood for SRH by dismissing Priyansh (1 off 3) on the final ball of the first over. The youngster went for a big hit off a short-pitched ball but didn&#8217;t get the desired connection. Eshan Malinga completed an impressive catch in the deep to end the batter&#8217;s knock.<\/p>\n<p>To make matters worse for Punjab, Nitish Reddy struck on the first ball of the next over. Prabhsimran (3 off 4) attempted to clear the in-field with a lofted drive but was caught by Pat Cummins after a leading edge.<\/p>\n<hr\/>\n<h2>#1 Shashank Singh puts down a sitter, yet again<\/h2>\n<p>Shashank Singh&#8217;s sloppy catching has come under the scanner this season. He came into the spotlight again after putting down a sitter in the deep to give Heinrich Klaasen a reprieve.<\/p>\n<p>The swashbuckling batter got a top-edge off Yuzvendra Chahal&#8217;s bowling in the ninth over. However, Shashank put down a straightforward chance, and the dropped catch resulted in a four. Klaasen was batting on nine runs at that stage and ended up scoring 69 runs.<\/p>\n<p>Notably, Shashank has dropped five catches in his last three appearances.
