Gritty Punjab Kings floor Chennai Super Kings by seven wickets

Punjab Kings executed a practical chase to hand Chennai Super Kings a disheartening seven-wicket defeat at home in their IPL match on Wednesday. Riding on swift scores from Jonny Bairstow (46 off 30 balls, 7 fours, 1 six) and Rilee Rossouw (43 off 23 balls, 5 fours, 2 sixes), Punjab surpassed Chennai’s modest total of 162 for seven, which was anchored by skipper Ruturaj Gaikwad’s solid 62. The victory moved PBKS up to seventh place on the points table with eight points, while CSK remained in fourth with 10 points.
