IPL 2024: Curran, Livingstone Star As PBKS Begin Campaign With A Four-wicket Win Over DC
Maharaja Yadavindra Singh International Cricket: Sam Curran and Liam Livingstone played starring roles with the bat as Punjab Kings got their 2024 campaign in the Indian Premier League (IPL) off to a flying start with a four-wicket win over Delhi Capitals at their new home ground, the Maharaja Yadavindra Singh International Cricket Stadium, here on Saturday.
It was a seesaw battle between the two teams of North India, but PBKS were always in front, especially after Delhi Capitals' Ishant Sharma went off the field after twisting his right ankle while fielding. It meant DC’s bowlers, barring a superb Kuldeep Yadav, didn’t come well, while dropped catches added more misery to their woes.
Curran top-scored with 63, while Livingstone was not out on 38 as PBKS closed the chase with four balls to spare, scoring 177/6 in 19.2 overs after restricting Delhi Capitals for 174/9 in 20 overs.
