Shreyas Iyer is on a roll right now, whether it comes to batting or his stellar performance as PBKS captain. He recently led PBKS to a commanding eight-wicket victory over Lucknow Super Giants, marking their second consecutive win of IPL 2025.
Arshdeep Singh proved to be a big boon in the last game with his exceptional bowling on a swinging pitch, restricting LSG to 171 runs.
Punjab Kings then chased down the target in just 16.2 overs, thanks to brilliant batting performances from Prabhsimran Singh, Nehal Wadhera, and captain Iyer.
With this victory, Punjab Kings climbed to the second spot in the points table with four points, while Shreyas Iyer etched his name in IPL history with a major captaincy record. This was Iyer’s eighth consecutive win as captain, including six wins for Kolkata Knight Riders last year. Not to forget, he also led KKR to the IPL title last season, along with two wins for Punjab Kings this season. By achieving this feat, Iyer equalled MS Dhoni’s record.
