Mayank Agarwal and KL Rahul got the Punjab Kings off to a wonderful start against the Royal Challengers Bangalore, as they sought to chase down their target of 165. The pair put on 91 together for the first wicket, including some of the most glorious strokemaking you are likely to see. Rahul eventually fell for 39 off 35 balls, a knock that included two 6s, and Agarwal followed him shortly after bringing up his fifty, being dismissed for 57 off 42, hitting as many maximums and six 4s.
