West Indian batter Nicholas Pooran's flow shop continues in the ongoing IPL 2026 season, the batter, who took retirement from international cricket to pay more focus on the franchise leagues, was dismissed cheaply again vs the Gujarat Titans at the Ekana Cricket Stadium B Ground in Ardonamau.
With less than a 100 strike rate, the middle-order batter of the Lucknow Super Giants is gone for 19 facing 21 balls. In his brief knock, he smashed a couple of 6s only. While trying to get another big one, Nicholas Pooran lost his scalp against Gujarat Titans pacer Prasidh Krishna.
