Yuzvendra Chahal grabbed four wickets to spark a Kolkata Knight Riders collapse as Punjab King pulled off an improbable victory in their IPL match at Mullanpur on Tuesday.
Chasing just 112, KKR were bowled out for 95 with 4.5 overs to spare.
It was the lowest total defended in IPL history.
KKR were cruising at 62/2 before losing six wickets for 17 runs with Chahal taking four of them.
The leggie trapped KKR skipper Ajinkya Rahane leg before for 17 off 17 balls and then had Angkrish Raghuvanshi caught at point for 37 off 27 balls.
Glenn Maxwell chipped in with the wicket of Venkatesh Iyer who was lbw for seven.
Chahal then struck twice in successive balls, having Rinku Singh stumped by Josh Inglis for two and then removing Ramandeep Singh for a golden duck.
When Marco Jansen got Harshit Rana to play on for three, Punjab Kings were suddenly the favourites as KKR slumped to 79/8.
Andre Russell brought the Punjab players back to earth by smashing 16 in Chahal's last over including two sixes and a four.
But Chahal crucially prevented him from keeping the strike for the next over by Arshdeep Singh.
Arshdeep delivered a wicket maiden, having Vaibhav Arora caught behind by Inglis for a duck off the last ball.
That brought last man Anrich Nortje to the crease.
Russell finally had the strike and launched into the first delivery of the next over by Jansen. But he only managed an inside edge onto his stumps. KKR had snatched defeat from the jaws of victory.
Earlier, Punjab Kings struck twice within the first eight balls of the Kolkata Knight Riders innings to leave the visitors wobbling at 7/2.
Rahane and Raghuvanshi then steadied the ship to put KKR on course for victory by adding 55 for the third wicket.
But Punjab Kings fought back brilliantly as the match headed for a tense finish.
Earlier, facing off against his old team, which he led to the IPL title last season, Shreyas Iyer fell for a duck as Punjab Kings crumbled to a paltry 111 against Kolkata Knight Riders in their IPL match at Mullanpur on Tuesday.
The home team was bowled out with 27 balls to spare, with all five KKR bowlers finishing among the wickets.
Harshit Rana struck twice in his first over to peg back Punjab Kings after they elected to bat.
Brought on after a Vaibhav Arora over went for 20, Rana was greeted with a six by Priyansh Arya.
But he had his revenge off the next ball, having the Punjab opener caught at fine leg by Ramandeep Singh for 22 off 12 balls.
Two balls later, skipper Shreyas Iyer was back in the dugout for a duck, also caught by Ramandeep off Rana.
Worse was to come for Punjab in the next over as Varun Chakravarthy castled Josh Inglis for two, leaving the home team at 42/3 after five overs.
The other opener Prabhsimran Singh then smacked Rana for successive sixes but the bowler again had the last laugh and once again Ramandeep was the catcher. Prabhsimran had made 30 off 15 balls.
Nehal Wadhera struck Anrich Nortje for successive boundaries but then fell off the next ball for 10. With half the side gone for just 74, Punjab brought on Suryansh Shedge as an impact sub in place of Prabhsimran.
Punjab still had Glenn Maxwell at the crease but the Aussie's woeful form continued as he was bowled by a Chakravarthy carrom ball for seven.
The home side's gamble to go for an early impact sub failed as Shedge was caught behind by keeper Quinton de Kock off Sunil Narine for four.
The procession to and from the crease continued as Marco Jansen was bowled by Narine in the same over, leaving Punjab at 86/8 after 11 overs.
Shashank Singh attempted to break the shackles by belting a six off Chakravarthy but was trapped leg before by Arora shortly afterwards for 18.
Two balls later, the Punjab innings came to a sorry end as a farcical run out saw Xavier Bartlett dismissed for 11.
