Punjab were at one stage struggling at 45\/3, but Prabhsimran hit his maiden IPL century (103 off 65) and stitched a vital stand of 72 runs off 54 balls for the fourth wicket with Sam Curran (20 off 24) to guide his side to a competitive 167\/7 in 20 overs.
Harpreet Brar then ripped through the DC batting line-up with 4\/30 as a lethal bowling performance from PBKS saw them restrict the home side to 136\/8 and win the match by 31 runs.<\/p>\n

The defeat put Delhi Capitals out of the race to playoffs.
“We lost a few wickets at the top, so the plan was to take the game a little deep…The wicket was slightly tough at the start and the plan was to build some partnership and then target a few bowlers,” said Prabhsimran at the post-match presentation.
The 22-year-old Singh thanked management for the opportunities and mentioned about his conversations with seniors.<\/p>\n
“I have been with the team for a long time and when you get back-to-back opportunities you got to grab it,” he said.
“I also speak to senior players who keep telling me to make sure that I take the game deep and make it big when I get a start. Really thankful to the management for the opportunities,” added Prabhsimran,<\/p>\n
