Pacer Arshdeep Singh once again proved his worth after his spell helped Punjab Kings defeat Kolkata Knight Riders, in their campaign opener of IPL 2023 on Saturday.

Later, KKR were batting at 146/7 in 16 overs when the remainder of the match got called off due to heavy rain and PBKS were declared as winners by 7 runs (DLS method).
