Pacer Kartik Tyagi was ecstatic to effect a turnaround in an IPL match for Rajasthan Royals after having seen others do it in the past seasons. Punjab were poised for an easy win as they needed just four runs from the last over but the 20-year-old from Uttar Pradesh changed the game with his accurate bowling. Tyagi, who missed the India leg of the IPL, said "This feels really good".

‘Need to keep believing'

"I have been talking to seniors over the years and they keep telling me that things keep changing in this format, so I need to keep believing," Tyagi said at the post match press conference. "I've always heard from everyone and also watched games in this format where strange things have happened. Today, I was fortunate to play a big role in something special."

Samson fined

Meanwhile, Rajasthan Royals captain Sanju Samson has been fined Rs 12 lakh for his side's slow over rate against Punjab Kings. "Samson has been fined after his team maintained a slow over rate during their IPL match on September 21," the IPL said in a statement.
