Punjab Kings have started off IPL 2025 with an absolute bang! They won the first game against GT, and now have absolutely demolished LSG in their own backyard. It is a fitting reply to Rishabh Pant, the captain of LSG whose insulting comment for Punjab Kings grabbed lot of eyeballs after the IPL 2025 auction.

Punjab Kings Hit Back At Rishabh Pant's Insult

Rishabh Pant in a very offensive way stated that he was relieved after Punjab Kings grabbed Shreyas Iyer in IPL as he had no intention of going to PBKS. Now, after PBKS has humbled LSG in Lucknow, Punjab Kings' official X handle come up with the same words of Rishabh Pant, and took an indirect dig at Pant with caption, 𝐓𝐞𝐧𝐬𝐢𝐨𝐧 toh auction mein hi khatam ho gayi thi! 😉.

Along with the caption, Punjab Kings posted video of their captain Shreyas Iyer, showing his swag. Interestingly, Shreyas Iyer was the second most expensive player in IPL 2025 auction at 26.75 Crore, while Pant was bought for 27 Crore.

Talking about the match, it turned out to be a one-way traffic. Shreyas Iyer won the toss and decided to field first. His bowlers stepped up and pick early wickets in the powerplay. Rishabh Pant failed again and somehow LSG managed to reach a competitive total of 171.

In reply, Punjab Kings batters came out all guns blazing, with Prabhsimran Singh hitting 69 off 34 balls. Shreyas Iyer played an unbeaten knock again and finished off the game with a six.
