Shikhar Dhawan’s record-breaking ton in vain; Punjab wins

Latest News, Sports
Delhi Capitals’ dashing opener Shikhar Dhawan, became the first batsman in the history of Indian Premier League (IPL) to have scored two consecutive innings of 100+. Even this superb innings could not take his team to the winning line as he failed to get any support from his teammates.  Riding on Dhawan’s superb 61-ball-106 (not out), Delhi finished with 164-5 in 20 overs. In reply, Punjab lost captain KL Rahul, Chris Gayle, and in-form Mayank Agarwal inside powerplay. Some quality power-hitting from Nicholas Pooran(53/28) and his partnership with Glen Maxwell (32/24) made sure Kings XI Punjab stay in the play-off race.
