Punjab Kings totally dominated Chennai Super Kings in their clash at the Brabourne Stadium tonight and inflicted a crushing defeat over them by a huge margin of over 54 runs. This was CSK’s third consecutive defeat in IPL 2022 and they have not been able to register even 1 win in the Indian Premier League this season. Things do not look very good for the Ravindra Jadeja led team and if things go on like this, they might end up at the very bottom of the table in IPL 2022 just like they did two years ago which is very humiliating considering the fact that they are the defending champions.
Talking about the performance of Punjab Kings, they were simply phenomenal in both the departments. While batting first, they scored a humungous total of 180 runs and while bowling in the second innings, they were able to restrict Chennai Super Kings for just 126 runs before picking up all 10 of their wickets.
Liam Livingstone was the much deserved man of the match as he was both the highest runscorer in the match and he also picked up 2 wickets. This was the first time that IPL fans came to know about Livingstone’s bowling skills and he took 2 big wickets on his very first outing. This will be a big confidence booster for him and Livingstone might expect to bowl many more overs for Punjab Kings this season.
Undoubtedly his best wicket in today’s match was the one of Dwayne Bravo whom he caught and bowled. Not only was it a sensational delivery but his catch was superb as well.
