Bairstow's unbeaten 108 off 48 balls, with eight fours and nine sixes, see Punjab secure the win with eight balls to spare
Thomson Reuters, Agence France-Press and Associated Press will send no reporters or photographers to the tournament, which begins on Wednesday, as a protest against the IPL's limit on editorial freedom.
The photo agencies, including Getty Images and Action Images, supply publishers of editorial newspapers and websites around the world with images from sporting events in numerous countries without problems, but have been excluded from covering the seventh edition of the IPL following a disagreement regarding the commercialisation of images.
