Yashasvi Jaiswal (49), Evin Lewis (36) and Liam Livingstone (25) set the base for the middle and lower order to make merry but barring Mahipal Lomror' cameo of 43, the others Rahul Tewatia, Chirs Morris and Riyan Parag failed to put the finishing touches to this innings.

Punjab Kings made a decent comeback thanks to their pace duo of Arshdeep Singh and Mohammed Shami, who restricted Rajasthan Royals to 185/10 in their opening match of the UAE leg of the IPL 2021 here on Tuesday.

Punjab, who raced to 120 without loss thanks to skipper KL Rahul (49) and Mayank Agarwal (67), needed 10 runs off the last 15 deliveries. They reduced the equation to four runs off the final over before Tyagi bowled brilliantly to snatch victory from the jaws of defeat in a thrilling finish.
