Delhi Capitals (DC) opener Shikhar Dhawan remained unbeaten on 69🌠 after facing 47 deliveries as his side beat Punjab Kings (PBKS) by 🐭seven wickets in Match 29 of IPL 2021.
Put in to bat first, Punjab’s stand-in skipper Mayank Agarwal sma�✤�shed a 58-ball 99* and led his team to 166/6 in their stipulated overs.
Mayank became the second batsman after Suresh Raina in 2013 to remain unbeaten on 99 at the end of the innings. He hit two fours and a six off the last three balls of the first innings and stitched a partnership of 52 runs for the third wicket with debutant Dawid Malan (26) and a 41-run stand for the fifth wicket with Shahrukh Khan (4).
