LSG Vs PBKS, IPL 2025: Punjab Kings Secure Second Win With 8-Wicket Thrashing of Lucknow Super Giants
LSG Vs PBKS, IPL 2025: Punjab Kings secured their second win of the Indian Premier League (IPL) season 18 on Tuesday, 1 April, dominating Lucknow Super Giants in an eight-wicket victory. Electing to field first, PBKS bowlers dismissed Mitchell Marsh for a duck, and Nicholas Pooran was sent back at 44 off 30. Despite a late partnership from Ayush Badoni (41 off 33) and Abdul Samad (27 off 12), LSG could manage a total of 171. In response, Punjab had a solid start despite losing Priyansh Arya early on. Prabhsimran Singh looked unplayable at times, and it took a catch-of-the-season contender from Ayush Badoni and Ravi Bishnoi to dismiss him for 69 runs off 34 balls. However, skipper Shreyas Iyer (52 off 30) and Punjab-boy Nehal Wadhera (43 off 25) were more than capable of securing the win for PBKS. Iyer finished the match in style with a six, securing his half-century and winning the game for the Kings with 22 balls to go.
