IPL 2016: 5 memorable moments from the KXIP-Gujarat Lions match that don't fade away

Marcus Stoinis’ sensational debut

Marcos Stoinis helped Punjab reach a respectable total.

Marcus Stoinis is still a relatively unknown name outside Australia. In his country, however, he is a highly rated upcoming player —and today he showed just why Punjab wanted him so badly.

He came to bat a time when Dwayne Bravo’s fury was at its peak and the Punjab middle-order knew not what hit them. But Stoinis was calm and just about knew what to do. In the 22 balls that he faced, he scored 33 runs and four 4s to carry Punjab to a respectable score of 161 in 20 overs.

Watch out for him, he is one to keep an eye out for.
