PBKS defeated RR by 10 runs in a thrilling encounter at the Sawai Mansingh Stadium on Sunday.

This crucial victory helped PBKS seal playoff qualification after 11 years.
In his address, Ponting stressed how the players have adopted a simple yet effective approach since the beginning of the tournament, playing their natural game despite the situation. Expressing his happiness with the batting unit, who put 219/5 on the board for the RR to chase, Ponting specifically praised Wadhera for his brilliant performance, scoring 70 runs off just 37 balls last night.
