Maxwell was Punjab’s best bet to win this match considering his striking capabilities and also the volume of runs they were chasing. However, spectators wouldn’t have expected him to depart that early as he got out for a duck after facing only two deliveries.

Siddharth Kaul was really lucky to get away with a loose delivery down the leg side. Maxwell, much to his dismay, hit that loose delivery perfectly to Ashish Nehra standing at short fine leg. Thus with Maxwell’s departure, KXIP’s hopes of winning the match vanished.
