In this episode, we look at the 2 most important matches of IPL Week 7. These two matches have been extremely significant and are worth looking at, with some good performances including England duo Liam Livingstone and Jonny Bairstow’s fifties.

IPL Highlights of this week include:

- David Warner 92* off 58

- Daniel Sams Defending 9 runs in 20th over for MI

- Liam Livingstone 119m six
