Kartik Tyagi Defends 4 Runs In Last Over, Punjab Kings Lose Last-Ball Thriller

A big day for the young bowlers of Rajasthan Royals and Punjab Kings but it was Kartik Tyagi's special final over – when PBKG needed 4 off the last 6 balls – that helped decide the outcome of the match - Rajasthan winning by 2 runs.

Punjab, who raced to 120 without loss thanks to skipper KL Rahul (49) and Mayank Agarwal (67), needed 10 runs off the last 15 deliveries. They reduced the equation to four runs off the final over before Tyagi bowled brilliantly to snatch victory from the jaws of defeat in a thrilling finish.

Earlier in the day, Arshdeep Singh picked up his career's maiden T20 fifer as he and Mohammad Shami's tight spells in the death overs helped restrict RR to 185.
