5 memorable moments from the MI-KXIP match that don't fade away

Punjab held their nerve at the end to seal a 7-run win

At one point in this game, it felt like Mumbai would go on to win it and eliminate Punjab from the tournament in the process. However, some great death bowling from the Kings’ bowlers in the last two overs sealed a close win for them, keeping their qualification chances alive. 

Batting first, Punjab put up a gargantuan total of 230 runs courtesy brilliant efforts from Wriddhiman Saha and Glenn Maxwell. In response, the Mumbai Indians started the innings fantastically, thanks to some good batting from Lendl Simmons.

#1 Maxwell marvel

In the final games of the Indian Premier League, it seems as though the real Glenn Maxwell has turned up for the Kings XI Punjab. In the last few games, we have witnessed some insane hitting from the Australian – and tonight was no different. 
Against the Mumbai Indians, the Australian batsman promoted himself to number 3 and smashed 47 runs off only 21 balls. His innings comprised 5 sixes and 2 boundaries as his power packed performance helped Punjab cross the 200 mark.
