Curran burst into celebration after knocking over Jasiwal, whirling his fingers in the air which looked like a sendoff to the Royals opener.

Punjab Kings (PBKS) captain Sam Curran brought a unique celebration after dismissing Rajasthan Royals (RR) early in the Indian Premier League (IPL) match no. 65 on Wednesday in Guwahati. Jaiswal went off the mark with a boundary off the very first ball of the innings after the Royals opted to bat first. Curran bowled a half-volley outside off and Jaiswal drove it through covers to start with a boundary.

It looked like a rollicking start for the Royals with Jaiswal in the driver’s seat but Curran bounced back soon to draw the first blood for Punjab. After a couple of dot balls, the PBKS skipper bowled a length ball that swung back late. Jaiswal tried driving it away but edged it onto the middle stump.

RR opt to bat

The Rajasthan Royals won the toss and elected to bat first against the Punjab Kings at the Barsapara Stadium.

“This is a second home for us, we have spend quite a bit of time here. We spent two days to assess on whether there is dew, and there isn’t any. The team, the batting and bowling unit are doing great. Everyone is chill and we are excited to come out and play a great game of cricket,” said RR skipper Sanju Samson.

The Punjab Kings on the other hand have also been handed a handicap due to most english players having left the side before the end of the season in preparation for the 2024 T20 World Cup.

“Tonight we play a really good team, and we can spoil a few campaigns now and finish with some pride. We’ve had a really good squad but some of those games we didn’t win the big moments. We are about 2-3 wins away from qualifying and we aren’t there because we didn’t capitalize on the big moments,” said PBKS captain Sam Curran
