Sam Curran

After Punjab Kings completed a record chase of 262 to secure an eight-wicket win over Kolkata Knight Riders in an absolute run-fest on the back of Jonny Bairstow's unbeaten 108 and Shashank Singh's unbeaten 68, Kings's skipper Sam Curran pondered "Cricket is turning into baseball, isn't it?"

"Cricket is turning into baseball, isn't it? It was absolutely incredible," Curran mused at the post-match presentation.

"Where do we [start]? Absolutely delighted with two points. Games like that are out of the world, but most importantly we've had a tough few weeks as a team [this was Kings's first win in five games] but we've really hung in there. We've taken teams down to the wire and, I think, forget about the scores...I thought we actually deserved victory," he added.
