PBKS vs RR Highlights, IPL 2021: Kartik Tyagi shines with last-over heroics in RR's thrilling 2-run win against PBKS

IPL 2021 Highlights, PBKS vs RR: Punjab Kings needed 10 runs off 15 balls with 8 wickets in hand. However, courtesy of Kartik Tyagi's last-over heroics, which yielded just one run and two wickets, Rajasthan Royals managed to secure a two-run win.

IPL 2021 Highlights, Punjab Kings (PBKS) vs Rajasthan Royals (RR): Kartik Tyagi did the unthinkable as Rajasthan Royals snatched a victory from the jaws of defeat to edge Punjab Kings by 2 runs. Tyagi picked up two wickets and conceded just one run in the 20th over as Nicholas Pooran (32) Aiden Markram (26*) could not score 10 runs off 15 balls. Earlier, Punjab Kings captain KL Rahul (49) and opening partner Mayank Agarwal (67) approached the chase in the best way possible as they stitched an outstanding century stand for the first wicket. They, however, were both dismissed in quick succession. A little earlier, Agarwal brought up his fifty. The first innings of the night belonged to Arshdeep Singh as he bagged his maiden five-wicket haul to peg back Rajasthan Royals and restrict them to 185/10 in their 20 overs. Mohammed Shami also shone with the ball, picking up 3 wickets. Earlier, Evin Lewis (36) and Yashasvi Jaiswal (49) had gotten Rajasthan Royals off to a brisk start. The team crossed 50 in just 5 overs. Once they were dismissed, Liam Livingstone (25) and Mahipal Lomror (43) took up the boundary-scoring duties. But RR kept losing wickets at regular intervals and a mini-collapse at the end meant they could not get past 200.

Thank you so much for joining us. Until tomorrow, which will see DC and SRH do battle, it's goodnight and goodbye. 
CIAO!

MATCH HEIST

A heist so good, even the Professor was impressed.

If you know, you know (smiles cheekily) 

Sep 21, 2021 11:48 PM IST

HOW DID THIS HAPPEN?

PBKS NEEDED 10 RUNS OFF 15 BALLS WITH 8 WICKETS IN HAND AND NEEDED 4 RUNS FROM 6 BALLS WITH 8 WICKETS IN HAND.

Yet they lost by two runs. However, credit where due. Kartik Tyagi probably bowled one of the best overs of his life to two huge big hitters. 

The depth of Indian cricket, goodness me, is simply outstanding. Kartik has all the reasons to celebrate tonight.

Sep 21, 2021 11:32 PM IST

FABIAN ALLEN WALKS OUT TO WALK! CAn RR actually pull this off?

19.6 NO RUN AND RR WIN BY 2 RUNS! THIS IS WHAT YOU CALL A REAL-LIFE HEIST! UNBELIEVABLE! 

Kartik Tyagi is the hero!

Sep 21, 2021 10:32 PM IST

RR vs PBKS Live Match: What you call a true Partnership

FOUR! Just how good are these guys in tandem, are Rahul and Mayank. At first, Rahul began briskly and Mayank was happy with nudging the ball around and rotating strike. And now that Mayank is dealing in boundaries, Rahul is happy to take up the other role.

Sep 21, 2021 10:27 PM IST

MARVELOUS MAYANK! MAGNIFICENT MAYANK!

FOUR! A thing of beauty alright! Open the wrists and caresses the ball over extra-cover for four! He lost his shape on the previous delivery but hit this quite skillfully!

FOUR! This is a Mayank masterclass. Back-to-back-to-back boundaries. Stand and deliver stuff as he smacks the ball over the bowler's head for four. Riyan Parag did well to come in from long-on and dive desperately to save the boundary.

Sep 21, 2021 10:23 PM IST

IPL 2021 Live Cricket Score: So pleasing for the eyes

Sep 21, 2021 10:13 PM IST

RR vs PBKS Live Score: TIDY FROM MUSTAFIZUR

4 off the first over. A tidy start from “The Fizz”

Chetan Sakariya is sharing the new ball with him.

DROPPED! Rahul is dropped by Lewis at deep point. That's why the fielder was there but it was hit so hard by Rahul that it was always goign to be difficult. Lewis still does well to put in a full-stretch dive and save a certain boundary.

5 off the over, PBKS are 9/0 after 2 overs

Sep 21, 2021 9:41 PM IST

Welcome back

KL Rahul and Mayank Agarwal have walked out to open.

OUT! He's gone for 49, misses his maiden IPL 50 by a whisker. For the last few deliveries, Jaiswal had gone into a shell, looking for his first IPL fifty and his cautious approach leads him into closing the face of the bat early, top-edging the ball to Mayank Agarwal at cover.
