Shikhar Dhawan, the Punjab Kings captain, was dismissed for a single-digit score for the first time this season in their match against Gujarat Titans. The left-handed opener had been in outstanding form in the previous game against Sunrisers Hyderabad, scoring consecutive half-century and a blazing 99 not-out.<\/p>\n
However, his streak was halted by the Gujarat Titans\u2019 bowlers, who managed to get him out cheaply. Joshua Little, the left-arm seamer, was the one to dismiss Dhawan, who was looking to whip the ball over midwicket but got beaten by the late outswing.<\/p>\n
The ball took the leading edge and went straight to Alzarri Joseph, who took a good catch running back from mid-on. Dhawan\u2019s dismissal was a big blow for the Punjab Kings, who were relying on him to provide a solid start to their innings.<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, the Gujarat Titans would be delighted with the wicket of the dangerous opener, who has the ability to take the game away from the opposition single-handedly. With the Punjab Kings\u2019 top-order weakened by Dhawan\u2019s dismissal, the Gujarat Titans would be looking to capitalize and put pressure on the middle-order.<\/p>\n
Earlier \u2013 Prabhsimran fell victim to the in-form bowler Mohammed Shami.<\/p>\n
