IPL: Teams with most No Results & Ties in a single season – Updated List

Punjab Kings: 2020 - 2 (both tied)

PBKS finished sixth on the points table in the 2020 edition. There was a period where the franchise won five games on the trot. However, a couple of losses in their final league-phase games meant that the runners-up of the 2014 edition missed out on making the top four for the sixth straight season.

Their very first game of the season ended up in a nail-biting showdown against Delhi Capitals. Mohammed Shami starred with a three-fer. Barring Marcus Stoinis, who notched up 53 off 21, none of the others came anywhere near matching his tempo. Mayank Agarwal anchored the run-chase with 89 off 60. However, he received minimal effort from the others. A stunning collapse meant the game would be decided via a Super Over. PBKS lost their wickets in the first three deliveries as DC clinched the win at the end.

PBKS' second experience with the Super Over came against Mumbai Indians at the same venue, the Dubai International Cricket Stadium. Opting to bat first, MI got to 176/6. Glenn Maxwell (0/24 in four overs), who opened the bowling, was the joint-most economical bowler for PBKS along with Ravi Bishnoi (1/12 in two overs). Shami contributed with two wickets.

As for the run-chase, KL Rahul top-scored with 71. With the scores level on 176/6, the game entered the Super Over. In an encounter for the ages, the first Super Over ended up with both sides scoring five. A second one had to be played out to decide the winner of the faceoff.
