Skipper iyer

Former New Zealand: Former New Zealand captain Kane Williamson hailed Prabsimran Singh's impressive knock against Lucknow Super Giants as incredible, saying his innings dictated the pace of the chase in setting a strong foundation for skipper Shreyas Iyer and Nehal Wadhera to wrap up the win.

Prabhsimran played an explosive knock of 69 off 34 balls, laying a strong foundation. Skipper Iyer continued his excellent form, remaining unbeaten with his second consecutive half-century (52 not out) with Wadhera adding a valuable 43 not out, ensuring a smooth finish as PBKS wrapped up the chase with 22 balls to spare.

"It was an explosive start. In the first innings, the pitch didn’t seem the easiest to bat on, and it was difficult to find fluency. However, Prabhsimran didn't let that affect him—he came in with intent, threw the first punch, and never looked back. His 69 off 34 balls was incredible—shots all around the ground, completely dictating the pace of the chase. His knock set the perfect platform for Shreyas Iyer and Nehal Wadhera to come in and finish the innings," Williamson said on JioHotstar.
