After years of setbacks, Punjab Kings came with a robust squad, and no comeback can be bigger than this. Taking the reins as the skipper, Shreyas Iyer led the side from the front. While batting first, the team lost one early wicket, but after that, there was no looking back.

After Priyansh Arya’s mighty 47, Shreyas Iyer’s outstanding 97-run knock, and Shashank Singh’s quick-fire cameo scripted history for the side. With a colossal total of 243 runs, they shattered their own record, achieving their second-highest IPL total and leaving fans in awe of their fearless batting display.
