IPL 2025 LSG vs PBKS | Top-order makes it a stroll in the park for Punjab Kings
The Hindu
Prabhsimran Singh's blazing fifty leads Punjab Kings to an eight-wicket victory over Lucknow Super Giants in IPL 2025.
Opener Prabhsimran Singh followed up a disciplined performance from Punjab Kings bowlers with a blazing fifty to help his team outclass Lucknow Super Giants by eight wickets in an IPL 2025 match at the Ekana Stadium here on Tuesday (April 1, 2025).
Prabhsimran’s early blitz ensured a comfortable win for Kings as they scaled LSG’s 172-run target inside 17 overs.
The wicketkeeper-batter kicked things off by taking down LSG’s pacers. While Shardul Thakur was driven through cover and slashed over point, Avesh Khan was dispatched over extra cover with a shot mirroring a tennis forehand.
Prabhsimran fared even better against the LSG spinners, employing a battery of sweeps, reverse sweeps and scoops to garner boundaries.
The 24-year-old reached his fifty off the 23rd ball and was threatening to wipe off the chase on his own before he was caught at the fence following an acrobatic relay catch involving Ayush Badoni and Ravi Bishnoi.
Kings skipper Shreyas Iyer marshalled the chase from thereon as he ticked off his second consecutive fifty.
With Impact Player Nehal Wadhera for company, Shreyas secured his side’s second win in as many games.
