Just hours after the Artemis II crew splashed down from their historic journey around the moon, a few willow-wielders took guard at the Maharaja Yadavindra Singh Stadium as if they were determined to send some cricket balls back into the lunar orbit.<\/p>\n

A mammoth 442 runs were plundered by the Punjab Kings and Sunrisers Hyderabad batters, at the end of which PBKS triumphed by six wickets on Saturday.<\/p>\n

While Abhishek Sharma\u2019s 28-ball 74 (5×4, 8×6) proved the launchpad for SRH\u2019s 219 for six, Priyansh Arya (57, 20b, 5×4, 5×6), Prabhsimran Singh (51, 25b, 4×4, 4×6) and Shreyas Iyer (69 n.o., 33b, 5×4, 5×6) ensured PBKS remained unbeaten in IPL 2026.<\/p>\n

SRH left-arm wrist-spinner Shivang Kumar bowled with gumption (three for 33) and priced out the PBKS top-order, but the damage had been done before he was introduced in the seventh over.<\/p>\n

While Abhishek\u2019s half-century came off 18 balls, Priyansh\u2019s came two deliveries faster. It took the SRH openers 3.4 overs to breach the 50-run mark; their counterparts did it in 3.3.<\/p>\n

The blistering start made the rest of the run chase a formality as skipper Shreyas took the side home with seven deliveries to spare.<\/p>\n

Earlier, Arshdeep Singh\u2019s 10-ball second over went for 24 runs, as Abhishek punished anything in his arc with elan.<\/p>\n

Part-time bowler Shashank Singh proved to be the unlikely circuit-breaker after the 105-run PowerPlay.<\/p>\n

The gentle medium-pacer repaid the faith shown by Shreyas by having Travis Head (38, 23b, 5×4, 1×6) and Abhishek caught in the deep.<\/p>\n

After being 120 for no loss in eight overs, the SRH innings decelerated.<\/p>\n

Arshdeep\u2019s 14th over saw two contrasting fielding efforts. While Marcus Stoinis dropped Heinrich Klaasen at long-off, Marco Jansen ran to his right and plucked the ball out of thin air with his outstretched right hand to send back Ishan Kishan.<\/p>\n

The nonchalance of the whole exercise saw Arshdeep cover his mouth and sit down in disbelief, though the crowd\u2019s reaction was to stand up and applaud.<\/p>\n

Later, Klaasen tossed his bat in the air out of frustration after his scratchy innings (39, 33b, 1×4, 1×6). Perhaps he knew that his knock would come back to haunt his team.<\/p>\n

The PBKS willow-wielders made sure of it.<\/p>\n
