It was yet another disappointing outing for Brook in IPL 2023.

The batter was caught by Bhuvneshwar at short third man, reducing PBKS to 63/4 in 8.5 overs.Sikandar Raza came in as an impact player in place of Prabhsimran Singh, but his disappointing run continued with a score of five in six balls before he was dismissed by Umran Malik. Half of the PBKS side was in the pavilion for 69 runs in 9.5 overs.At the end of 10 overs, PBKS was at 73/5, with Shikhar (33*) joined by Shahrukh Khan (3*) at the crease.Umran and Markande continued to offer a cocktail of pace and spin that PBKS could not handle, as Shahrukh (4), Harpreet Brar (1) and Rahul Chahar (0) were removed by the duo, with Markande getting two of these scalps.PBKS sunk to 78/8 in 12.5 overs.Markande finished with his best bowling spell in IPL, taking 4/15 in his four overs, after he dismissed Nathan Ellis for a five-ball duck. PBKS was reduced to 88/9 in 15 overs, with Shikhar (47*) as his side's last hope.Dhawan brought up his 49th IPL half-century, hitting Natrajan for two successive sixes. PBKS reached the 100-run mark in 15.5 overs.Dhawan continued to fight for his side single-handedly, smashing Umran for 17 runs in the 18th over, including two sixes and a four.With help of Dhawan's heroics, PBKS managed to end their innings at 143/9 in 20 overs.
