Punjab Kings won by 8 wickets with Shreyas Iyer leading the way. He hit a quick half-century, smashing two sixes and a four to bring the team closer to victory. When only 17 runs were needed, Iyer’s hitting took the game away from Lucknow Super Giants. He finished the chase with a boundary, securing the win for Punjab.

On the other groud, Prabhsimran Singh’s 23-ball half-century set the stage for Punjab Kings' chase against Lucknow Super Giants. With Punjab at 78/1 in just seven overs, his fearless approach and Shreyas Iyer’s steady presence formed a formidable 52-run stand off just 25 balls. Social media was quick to highlight the contrast in their styles—Prabhsimran’s aggression complemented by Iyer’s calculated game before Singh got caught out. 

However, even after this partnership break up netizens were filled with only praises for this duo. 

Shreyas Iyer’s ability to rotate strike and find gaps against spin drew comparisons to Virat Kohli’s strength. One fan noted, “IYER playing on to the covers against spin. This was Virat’s strength against spin in his earlier days. Shreyas is doing that now.” Another fan highlighted Iyer’s impact on Punjab Kings, claiming, “Shreyas Iyer has so much aura that he makes PBSK look like a big team.” His calm approach at the other end allowed Prabhsimran to play his natural attacking game, keeping Punjab ahead in the chase.
