Punjab kept losing wickets at regular intervals as spinner Mayank Markande (4 wickets for 15 runs) spun a web around PBKS to leave them reeling at 88 for nine in the 15th over. Shikhar Dhawan played a captain's innings (66-ball unbeaten 99) to propel Punjab Kings to 143/9 against Sunrisers Hyderabad.</p> <p>Even as Punjab Kings lost quick wickets, skipper Dhawan stood tall with an incredible unbeaten 99-run knock, laced up with 12 boundaries and five sixes.</p> <p>Punjab were off to a disastrous start as veteran India seamer Bhuvneshwar Kumar trapped their opener Prabhsimran Singh in front of the wicket for an Leg-Before-Wicket (LBW) dismissal in the very first ball of the match, leaving Punjab at none for one.</p> <p>PBKS lost their second wicket after South African left-arm pacer Marco Jansen got Matthew Short (1) LBW out in just the second delivery of the match's second over.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <p>Wicketkeeper-batter Jitesh Sharma fell for mere 4 runs after failing to clear Aiden Markram at mid-off. English all-rounder Sam Curran announced his arrival with a six and four off successive Marco Jansen deliveries before getting cleaned up by leg-spinner Markande.&nbsp;</p> <p>But Dhawan had other ideas as he smashed the SRH bowlers to take his team to a respectable total. Helping Dhawan along the way was Bhuvneshwar, who spilled three chances by the batter, including two off his own bowling.</p>
