Shashank Singh & Ashutosh Sharma: Punjab's miracle men

New Indian Express  

CHENNAI: When Ashutosh Sharma joined Shashank Singh in the middle against Gujarat Titans at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad, it felt like the home team was only a wicket away from registering their third consecutive win in front of the home crowd. Rashid Khan had just taken his 50th wicket for the franchise, Mohit Sharma, undoubtedly the leader of the pace pack, had two overs left and the climbing run rate was not favouring the visitors. Focused Ashutosh got a life early when Umesh Yadav dropped a relatively difficult chance off the bowling of Mohit and the Ralways batter made most of the dropped chance to hit three boundaries off Azmatullah Omarzai's final over. In the next, a Sharma vs Sharma battle, that too in the penultimate over, Ashutosh rightly picked up the slower delivery from Mohit to smash the ball for a six to put pressure on Giants.
