Prabhsimran Singh’s Explosive Start Breaks Record

Opening the innings, Prabhsimran Singh launched a brutal assault on the LSG bowlers from the outset. He reached his half-century in just 23 balls, registering the fastest fifty in IPL history at Lucknow. 

Prabhsimran's Destructive Innings

Prabhsimran's innings of 69 off 34 balls, studded with nine fours and three sixes, dismantled LSG’s bowling attack and ensured PBKS dominated the chase right from the start. Despite losing his opening partner Priyansh Arya early, Prabhsimran kept the momentum going, attacking both pacers and spinners with ease. 

He stitched a crucial 84-run partnership with skipper Shreyas Iyer before getting dismissed in the 11th over. By the time he departed, PBKS had already seized complete control of the game. 

His fearless stroke play and aggressive intent made the chase a mere formality for PBKS, who finished the job with 22 balls to spare.

Comfortable Win for PBKS

After Prabhsimran’s fireworks, Shreyas Iyer (52* off 30) and Nehal Wadhera (43* off 25) ensured there were no hiccups, guiding PBKS home with an unbeaten 67-run partnership.

Earlier in the match, LSG posted 171/7, with Nicholas Pooran (44) and Ayush Badoni (41) making notable contributions, while Arshdeep Singh (3/43) starred with the ball for PBKS.
