Pune needed a win to pass Hyderabad in the standings and avoid the eliminator, and the hosts put together a dominant outing on Sunday, taking care of Punjab.

The bowlers stole the headlines, limiting Kings XI to just 73 all out. Shardul Thakur took three wickets, while Jaydev Unadkat added two to move into second place in the wicket-takers' standings.

Broken Cricket has been impressed with the latter's performances in this year's IPL:

As great as Unadkat has been in 2017, he sits well behind Kumar in the race for the purple cap. Last year's top wicket-taker continued his bowling brilliance this season, with 25 in just over 51 overs.

Ajinkya Rahane (unbeaten 34) and Steven Smith (unbeaten 15) easily took care of the chase against Punjab, as Pune lost just a single wicket.

Supergiant will travel to Mumbai in the play-offs to take on Indians, while Sunrisers face Kolkata Knight Riders in the eliminator. The latter match will take place in Bengaluru.

Sunday's other match was between two teams already eliminated from play-off contention. Powered by Virat Kohli's 58 from 45 and Chris Gayle's 48 from 68, Bangalore comfortably put up a total Delhi never came close to.
