Opener Yashasvi Jaiswal’s 45-ball 67 helped Rajasthan Royals beat Punjab Kings by 50 runs in their IPL match here on Saturday.
Chasing 206, Punjab were restricted to 155-9 in 20 overs. Middle-order batter Nehal Wadhera (41-ball 62) and big-hitter Glenn Maxwell (30 off 21 deliveries) gave RR a few hiccups with an 88-run stand off 52 balls for the fifth wicket, but the other batters failed to cash in on the opportunity. Pacer Jofra Archer finished with figures of 3-25 for RR, while Sandeep Sharma and Maheesh Theekshana claimed two wickets each.
