Kings IX Punjab has done it and guess what, its the young blood again. Scoring an unbeaten 120 runs in just 63 balls, Valthaty has won many accolades. The first important thing is that the Punjab are playing without Yuvraj this season, and the second is they have defeated the hot favorites Chennai chasing a massive target of 189. And they have done this with youngsters like Paul Valthaty, Dinesh Karthik, Sunny singh and Praveen Kumar. Earlier Praveen kumar gave a shock to Chennai fans picking 2 wickets of first 2 balls of the match, but still Chennai managed to set a massive target of 189 for the Punjab with the help of Vijay, Badrinath and a flashing innings from Dhoni in the end.
