Punjab Kings (PBK), headed by Shreyas Iyer, won another match in the match 13 IPL 2025 By defeating Lucknow Super Giants (LSG). A one-sided win for Punjab Kings began with LSG, which was earlier at Bharat Ratna Shri Atil Bihari Vajpey Ekna Cricket Stadium, posting 171–7 at the end of 20 overs, due to the explosives of Ayush Badoni and Nicholas Gariban.
Punjab's Arshdeep Singh took three wickets before his batsmen went out to chase the target. Opener Prabhasimran Singh did not withdraw despite the initial dismissal of his partner Priyash Arya. This was later asked to arrive at Shreyas Iyer at the crease, and the skipper has long ended things in style with a huge six, leading to its second consecutive win of the season.
talking points
1. Rishabh Pant fails to prove his ability
The LSG skipper is currently burning hopes not only as the new leader of the party, but also as the most expensive purchase in IPL history. Before being appointed as a skipper, I was purchased for INR 27 crore in the auction, pants did not look comfortable in both shoes. After getting duck in the previous game, the star cricketer left after scoring just 2 runs after facing five balls. LSG has so far lost two out of three matches under the captaincy of the pants, and will analyze the required amendments in the approach to the rest of the tournament -born tournament, will get some runs under their belt, but more importantly that the victory methods are returning.
2. Iyer & Company, Fire 'N Go
Pressed in Punjab Shreyas Iyer As his newest captain before the 2025 season. In 2024, Iyer inspired Kolkata Knight Riders for his third title, and in a bid to draw a similar result, the 2014 finalist believed in Mumbai. Ace cricketer has not yet disappointed, as PBK has won both his games so far, winning today by winning today by eight wickets and 22 balls. In addition, Iyer also led a significant half -century from the front.
3. Prabhasim made his way
Despite losing an initial wicket, if Chase looked comfortable for Punjab, it was due to his star opener, talent on the performance by Prabhasimran Singh. The young man went on blazing all the guns and batted at a strike-rate of 202.94, scoring on Monday in Ekna 34-Ball 69 scoring runs throughout the park. He was also involved in an 84 -run partnership with Iyer, who chased a formality before dismissing nine fours and three huge sixes in his innings.
who said what?
Match player Prabhasimran Singh said
As everyone knows, it is such a legend (talking about coach Ponting). He is always very positive. He does not think about what. He asked us to return his game. Those shots are very practiced in nets (sweep and switch hits). This is a platform that can help you achieve your goal of playing for India.
Sris Iyer, PBKS captain, said
This is the beginning we need. The boys played their role really well. Everyone contributed to the best of their capacity and whatever was discussed in the team meeting, we really implemented well. To be honest, there is no correct combination. Just that the cameradry and synnament will have to click on the right time. I think all teams have the right ability to go there and win the game. This is just that when you go there, you need a similar mindset. I always try to live in the present as much as possible. Even this innings is now history for me. Just now want to focus on the next one.
Rishabh Pant, LSG captain, said
This (total) was not enough, we were 20–25 runs, but it is part of the game and parcel. Still assessing situations in our home ground. When you lose the initial wicket, it is always difficult to get a big total, but every player is working hard to take the game forward. There was an idea to get a slow wicket. I think slow balls were sticking inside. We got to learn and move forward from this game. There are many positive, you cannot say much.
