Although it was Yuzi Chal who stunned the side with his spectacular comeback. He dismissed both set batters in quick intervals. He finished with the figures of 4/28 in four overs.

Everyone counted out PBKS from this game after their batting failure ,but Chahal's comeback with the ball, who had been struggling in the season till now, ensured that the team pulled off a stunning win.
