Latest IPL 2022 Points Table, Orange Cap & Purple Cap Holder After CSK vs PBKS Match 38

Punjab Kings have jumped two spots after the win against Chennai Super Kings,

In a Tuesday night thriller, Punjab Kings managed to steal an 11-run win against Chennai Super Kings in match 38 of the IPL 2022. Despite Ambati Rayudu's masterful 78, CSK couldn't chase the target - courtesy of some solid death bowling by Arshdeep Singh and Kagiso Rabada. 

PBKS had set a 188-run target for CSK with Shikhar Dhawan top-scoring with unbeaten 88 runs while Bhanuka Rajapaksa gave good support to the opener with 42 runs. The duo had added 110 runs for the second wicket.
