Chasing 202, Kings XI lost openers Mayank Agarwal and Rahul cheaply. But that didn't deter Pooran, who had got stuck into Abhishek Sharma and T Natarajan earlier, slamming the duo for three sixes combined. He was eventually dismissed by Rashid Khan for a 37-ball 77. The Caribbean keeper-batsman's innings was studded with seven sixes and five fours.
