That's it! Andre Russell has been dismissed and Punjab Kings have defended the lowest total in the history of the IPL! Heist in Mullanpur! Or should we say, history in Mullanpur? Punjab Kings defend a 112-run target and win by 16 runs! This was surely not part of the script and Punjab Kings would be delighted to have pulled this win against Kolkata Knight Riders. For the best part of the game, Kolkata Knight Riders were pretty much on top for the most part of the game and there were discussions that KKR could even go to the top of the IPL 2025 points table if they win within 14 overs or something. But what followed later was an implosion! The whole KKR batting order collapsed like a pack of cards! Yuzvendra Chahal got two wickets in one over, dismissing Rinku Singh and Ramandeep Singh off consecutive balls. While Punjab Kings would be elated, KKR will be gutted to not have won this, despite Andre Russell's big hits in the end. Take a look at the list of lowest totals defended in IPL history, here. Yuzvendra Chahal was the star for his side with four wickets for 28 in his four overs and Marco Jansen took three wickets, including that of Andre Russell who was threatening to take the game away. Glenn Maxwell, Xavier Bartlett and Arshdeep Singh all got one wicket each. Shreyas Iyer's captaincy should be applauded as well! Just last year, he was the KKR captain when Punjab Kings had chased the highest successful score in IPL history and this time, he is the leader of the opposite camp with the lowest score defended in the tournament. Punjab Kings also made a remarkable comeback, days after conceding the second-highest run-chase against Sunrisers Hyderabad. They take on RCB next on April 18 in Bengaluru while KKR clash with Gujarat Titans at the Eden Gardens on April 21.

OUT! Arshdeep Singh has dismissed Vaibhav Arora as he gloves the ball to Josh Inglis! KKR need 17 runs in 30 balls with one wicket remaining! It is all happening here in Mullanpur! Vaibhav Arora c Josh Inglis b Arshdeep Singh 0(7)

OUT! Another wicket as Marco Jansen castles Harshit Rana! KKR's batting is falling down like a pack of cards! Harshit Rana edges the ball onto the stumps and Punjab Kings are two wickets away from winning this! Harshit Rana b Marco Jansen 3(6)

OUT! Another wicket and Yuzvendra Chahal is turning it on! KKR lose their seventh wicket of the match and KKR are 76/7 now with still 36 runs required in 50 balls! Yuzvendra Chahal on a hat-trick! Ramandeep Singh c Shreyas Iyer b Yuzvendra Chahal 0(1)

OUT! KKR are having a nightmare with the bat! Rinku Singh has been stumped and it is Yuzvendra Chahal with his third wicket! Punjab Kings are fighting back big time here and have the momentum now! Rinku Singh st Josh Inglis b Yuzvendra Chahal 2(9)

OUT! This game has burst into life now with Glenn Maxwell trapping Venkatesh Iyer LBW! KKR will be feeling the heat now and all eyes on Rinku Singh and Andre Russell now. Venkatesh Iyer lbw b Glenn Maxwell 7(4)

Rinku Singh and Venkatesh Iyer have joined forces and they will look to take KKR past the finish line in quick time. Punjab Kings have applied a lot of pressure and will aim at keeping things tight. What a game we are witnessing!

OUT! KKR lose a fourth wicket and it is the well-set Angkrish Raghuvanshi who has to depart. He gave himself too much room and sliced the ball straight to Xavier Bartlett. Angkrish Raghuvanshi c Xavier Bartlett b Yuzvendra Chahal 37(28)

OUT! Ajinkya Rahane has been dismissed and it is Yuzvendra Chahal who has provided the breakthrough! The KKR captain was struck on his pads while attempting the sweep. Punjab Kings do not have much to defend but will take a lot of confidence from this wicket. Ajinkya Rahane lbw b Yuzvendra Chahal 17(17)

KKR have scored 55 runs inside the first six overs and will be pleased with how they have bounced back after losing two early wickets. This has been an incredible game and KKR will look to continue in the way they have so far.
