IPL 2025, LSG vs PBKS Highlights: Prabhsimran Singh, Shreyas Iyer and Nehal Wadhera guide Punjab to 8-wicket win over Lucknow

IPL 2025, LSG vs PBKS Highlights:

Prabhsimran Singh and Shreyas Iyer both slammed half centuries while Nehal Wadhera scored a crucial 43 as Punjab Kings defeated Lucknow Super Giants by 8 wickets to stay unbeaten in the league.

Nicholas Pooran, Ayush Badoni and Abdul Samad played crucial knocks which helped Lucknow Super Giants recover from losing regular wickets as they posted 171/7 against Punjab Kings. The Kings were on control early on as they sent back Mitchell Marsh and Rishabh Pant cheaply with Arshdeep Singh taking 3 wickets but the aforementioned 3 batters helped the hosts post a par total.

Punjab Kings won the toss and opted to bowl first against Lucknow Super Giants at the Ekana Stadium on Tuesday. Both teams have won their last match but if stats are to be believed, the big hitters in the two teams won’t have the same amount of joy at LSG’s home ground with the Ekana boasting the lowest first innings average, the lowest run rate and the second-lowest runs per wicket in the last 2 years in the league.
