IPL 2023: Shikhar Dhawan rues PBKS' inability to fire as a unit after four-wicket loss against RR ends playoff hopes

Firstpost  

A disappointed Punjab Kings captain Shikhar Dhawan rued his team’s inability to fire as a unit in all three departments after their four-wicket defeat at the hands of Rajasthan Royals in Dharamsala on Friday. IPL 2023: Full coverage | Points table | Schedule | Results | Orange Cap | Purple Cap​ Two days after their 15-run loss at the hands of Delhi Capitals, also at the HPCA Stadium, Punjab failed to defend a score of 187 and became the third team after DC and Sunrisers Hyderabad to bow out of the playoffs race in the process. “We lost too many wickets in the powerplay and that put us on the backfoot, but Curran, Jitesh and Shahrukh got us back in the game, the bowling was good, but the fielding wasn’t great, the dropped catches cost us the game. “We have a quality team and it is a little shocking to see where we stand on the table,” RR skipper Sanju Samson said.
