Lucknow, Apr 1 (UNI) Skipper Shreyas Iyer and Prabhsimran Singh powered Punjab Kings to a commanding eight-wicket win over Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) in the 13th match of IPL 2025 at the Bharat Ratna Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee Ekana Cricket Stadium here on Tuesday.
Iyer remained unbeaten on 52 off 30 balls, striking three fours and four sixes, while Prabhsimran Singh's blistering 69 off 34 deliveries set the tone for Punjab’s dominant chase. Their authoritative batting display saw Punjab chase down LSG’s target of 172 with ease, finishing at 177 for two in just 16.2 overs.
Prabhsimran was in sublime touch, toying with the LSG bowlers. He brought up his fifty in style, tucking a delivery through midwicket for a single. His innings featured an array of attacking strokes, including a lofted shot over mid-on for four, a premeditated reverse-scoop over the keeper, and a stylish sweep over backward square leg. His dazzling knock came to an end when he mistimed a slog-sweep, allowing Ayush Badoni to flick the ball back from the boundary for Ravi Bishnoi to complete the catch.
