Faf du Plessis played really well and helped his team win by scoring 84 runs. Mohammed Siraj also did a great job by taking four wickets. They beat the other team, Punjab Kings, by 24 runs in a game called the Indian Premier League.
Du Plessis and Virat Kohli played really well together and helped their team score 174 runs. They were the first two players on the field and worked together to get a good start. This happened in a game played in Mohali.
Siraj did a really good job at playing cricket and helped his team win their third game out of six. He made it hard for the other team to score points and helped get one of their players out. The other team only scored 150 points before they had to stop playing.
Kohli became the captain instead of du Plessis because du Plessis got hurt. Du Plessis still played as a batsman, but had to leave the game because of the new rule.
The person from South Africa played very well and hit the ball a lot. He has scored the most points in the tournament and has done it four times!
Kohli scored 279 points, but he wasn’t playing as fast and strong as he usually does on Thursday.
Harpreet Brar did two really good things in the cricket game. First, he helped get a player named Kohli out by catching the ball. Then, he also caught another player named Glenn Maxwell who tried to hit the ball really hard but didn’t score any points.
Du Plessis left the field, and the other team’s players did a good job of stopping the other team from getting too many points, even though they had a good start.
Punjab’s cricket team kept losing players one after the other while trying to score points. Only two players, Prabhsimran Singh and Jitesh Sharma, did a good job of fighting back. Prabhsimran scored 46 points in 30 turns and Jitesh scored 41 points towards the end.
Siraj did really well at the beginning by getting two important wickets. He got Liam Livingstone who is a very good player from England and Matthew Short from Australia was also bowled out by another player called Wanindu Hasaranga.
Sam Curran was playing for the Kings because their regular leader was hurt. But unfortunately, he got out after scoring only 10 runs.
Siraj did really well in a game where he threw a ball to hit the sticks twice. He did so well that he became the best player at throwing the ball in the whole tournament, with 12 successful throws.
