"Was Aware Of Their Plans": Punjab Kings Opener Shikhar Dhawan On Tackling Chennai Super Kings Bowlers In IPL 2022
Punjab Kings opening batter Shikhar Dhawan on Monday said that during his innings against Chennai Super Kings, he was aware of CSK's plans of bowling wide yorkers at him in IPL 2022. The opener also said that during his innings, attacking the shorter side of the field was in his mind. A 110-run stand between a returning Bhanuka Rajapaksa (42) and Shikhar Dhawan (88*), playing his 200th IPL game, along with a stroke-filled cameo from Liam Livingstone (19) at the end, powered PBKS to 187/4 in their 20 overs. Chasing 188, knocks from Ruturaj Gaikwad (30), Ambati Rayadu (78) and captain Ravindra Jadeja (21*) kept the team in contention despite the constant fall of wickets from the other end, but the Men in Yellow fell 11-short of what could have been their third victory this season.
