Punjab Kings (PBKS) successfully mounted the highest run-chase in T20s when they surpassed Kolkata Knight Riders imposing 261/6 with eight balls and eight wickets to spare in their IPL match at Eden Gardens on April 26.
"The game is almost unrecognisable from 10 years ago when you get past 160 you can almost pack your bag and feel you're going to win the game. Now, you need 160 before the 13th over to have a chance to get a big score," Doeschate said during the post-match media interaction.
