“Shanes”
did it! Underdog Jaipur squad stunned Punjab Kings in an IPL T20
match at Sawai Man Singh stadium in Jaipur. Mohali IPL suffered
their second successive defeat despite having so many
international stars in their squad. Shane
Warne and Shane Watson steered Jaipur to a comfortable
victory. Rajasthan Royals defeated Punjab Kings by 6 wickets
with 11 balls to spare. Both captains played well in this match
but Yuvraj was not supported by teammates. This is a shocking
loss to confident Mohali.
Jaipur coach and captain Shane Warne bowled a superb spell by
giving just 19 runs in his 4 overs and took 3 crucial wickets
of Yuvraj Singh, Kumara Sangakkara and James Hopes. He guided
inexperienced Jaipur bowling attack in restricting Mohali to
comfortable 165 runs. Munaf Patel and Shane Watson chipped in
well with a sharp piece of medium pace.
Toss: Yuvraj won the toss and elected to bat first on a
flat batting paradise.
