PBKS batters Ashutosh Sharma and Shashank Singh nearly did the impossible as SRH managed to scrape a two-run victory. The duo gave it their all to chase down the 184-run total but missed out on it narrowly as Jaidev Unadkat held his nerves to see his team across the line. Sharma and Shashank’s innings may very well put them in contention for a spot in India’s squad for the upcoming T20 World Cup 2024.
Ashutosh Sharma nearly does it for PBKS
Ashutosh played a quickfire 33-run knock off just 15 deliveries, smashing two sixes and three fours. He played a fiery knock, striking at 220.00.

PBKS skipper Shikhar Dhawan heaped praise on the duo for playing consistently and credited them for nerly finishing the game for the side.
