Out of reverse hit
Prabhasimran Singh was easily blowing sixes and fours. He tried to play a switch hit against Digvesh Rathi in the 19th over. The ball did not come properly on his bat and Nicholas, who was fielding on the extra cover, went into the hands of Puran. Prabhasimran faced 48 balls to score 91 runs. In his innings, he hit more than fours. His bat led to 7 sixes and 6 fours.
In one day, two batsmen have been victims of nervous ninti. Earlier, this also happened in Rajasthan and KKR matches. Rajasthan captain Ryan Parag was dismissed for 95 runs. In Chennai and RCB matches, young batsman Ayush Mhatre also missed a century.
237 target in front of Lucknow
Punjab Kings scored 236 runs while batting first. Apart from Prabhasimran, captain Shreyas Iyer scored 45 runs off 25 balls. Shashank Singh scored an unbeaten 33 off 15 balls. Lucknow captain Rishabh Pant won the toss and decided to bowl first. His decision was backfired. Mayank Yadav conceded 60 runs in 4 overs. Aukh Khan scored 57 runs in 4 overs. Akash Maharaj Singh was the most successful bowler. He took two wickets for 30 runs. The defeat in this match will make it difficult for Lucknow to the playoffs.
