<p>Liam Livingstone stole the show with the bat as Punjab Kings (PBKS) thrashed Chennai Super Kings (CSK) by 61 runs in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2022 on Sunday (April 03). Livingstone, who was the most expensive overseas player at the IPL 2022 mega auction last month, finally proved his mettle in the IPL with a cracking half-century against CSK.</p>

<p>Livingstone came out to bat at no.4 for Punjab Kings when they were struggling at 14/2 inside the first two overs after losing two wickets in quick succession. The England batter went to play a dazzling knock of 60 runs off 32 balls to help his side post a strong total of 180 runs on the board.</p>

<p>Livingstone was not done there as he also contributed with the ball during CSK's run chase and plucked a stunning return catch to dismiss Dwayne Bravo. In the 15th over of CSK's innings, Livingstone ran and dived towards his left to pluck a one-handed stunner to send Bravo packing on a duck.</p>

<p>It was a sensational effort from the England all-rounder which left his teammates in awe. The video of the superb catch soon went viral on social media.</p>
