Punjab Kings defeated Mumbai Indians by 9 wickets in the 17th match of the IPL 2021. KL Rahul, PBKS captain, was adjudged Man of the match for his 60 runs off 52 balls which include 3 fours & 3 sixes. After the win, he said, “We don't want to get too ahead of ourselves. Slowly we are coming together as a team. The guys we have backed are slowly coming through. Bishnoi came back today and the way he bowled was brilliant.”
“We had heard that there was a lot of dew here. I felt like that could play a part. The drier ball started to grip, when it turns it gets really hard. It was good of Chris that he got through that period. He knew whom to target. That's what you get with Chris, not just destructive batting but also experience of playing T20 cricket.”
