Abhishek scores 18 ball fifty, Head plays second fiddle
Punjab Kings won the toss, and Iyer’s decision to bowl first immediately backfired as Head and Abhishek made them pay with some scintillating batting performance. The Indian opener was the chief aggressor as he took down Arshdeep Singh with ease and never looked back.
Abhishek also hammered Xavier Bartlett, and Vyshak Vijaykumar as the southpaw slammed a majestic 18-ball fifty to help SRH get a flying start. Head, who is equally dangerous, played the second fiddle role to perfection as he took his time, but once settled in, he too, tore apart the PBKS attack.
Abhishek departed for a well-compiled 74 off 28, and Head was sent back for 38 off 23 balls.
