Pitch Report

"It is a wonderful pitch. When you go down and feel it, it is absolutely rock hard. Both teams that have batted first have scored 200+ and defended that. Punjab Kings have played here 7 times and they have won only twice. There is obviously a bias when it comes to the boundaries on both the sides. One side is 61m, the other is 70m. The fine leg boundary on the shorter side for the right-hander is just 58m. The straight boundary is 75m."

Commentary

11:10 PM IST | The Indian Premier League just keeps giving! We've seen quite a few high-scoring games, now, it was time to get a low-scoring thriller! What was a match to pocket for Kolkata Knight Riders ended up going in favour of Punjab Kings. There was one epic and inspirational bowling spell to change the course of the match and there were some forgettable shots right through the game, more importantly so from the defending champions. On the whole, this was a contest that will go down in history as one of T20 cricket's greatest! With that, we come to the end of the day's coverage from New Chandigarh. We get back to you at 6:30 PM IST tomorrow from Delhi with Delhi Capitals hosting Rajasthan Royals. For now, this is the pair of Darpan and Bidipto taking your leave. Keep following Sportskeeda!

Yuzvendra Chahal (Player of the Match, 4/28 in 4 overs): "This was a team effort. I was of the opinion that it wasn't an easy wicket, so taking early wickets was the key, which we did. When my first ball turned, I told Shreyas (Iyer) that it's important to have attacking fielders in place because wickets were the key. In the last match, I gave away a lot of runs. But I was confident about my bowling, and it clicked well on this track. The mindset is always to take wickets, that wicket of Ajju bhai (Ajinkya Rahane) was important. And, I kept it slower through the air so that they had to force the pace. My first Player of the Match award for Punjab, so it's special, but I wasn't really thinking along those lines to be honest."

Shreyas Iyer (Punjab Kings captain): "I was just backing my instincts! Just told Yuzi to hold his breath, but yes, the right players were there at the right time! When I went out to bat, one stayed low, one bounced more. The others too said that it was a pitch with variable bounce. We had that at the back of our mind to bowl as much at the stumps as possible, and they got that plan right in terms of execution. Two wickets in two overs gave us the momentum we wanted, but then came a big partnership. But after that, Yuzi bowled superbly to change the course! I kept the field attacking to put pressure and the tide turned towards us. It's important that we stay humble and take the lessons from this win."

Yuzvendra Chahal's 14 dot balls wins him the Green Dot Balls of the Match award!

The On-the-go Fours of the match award goes to Angkrish Raghuvanshi for hitting 5 fours!

Super Sixes of the Match award winner is Prabhsimran Singh! He hit 3 sixes.

Fantasy King of the Match is none other than Yuzvendra Chahal!

The Super Striker of the Match award goes to Prabhsimran Singh, striking it at 250 today!

10:57 PM IST | It is now time for the post-match presentation!

There was this moment in the 2nd innings when Xavier Bartlett's sloppy piece of fielding at fine-leg led to an overthrow, and eventually, five runs! But, under really bizarre circumstances! Take a look at the explanation.
