Punjab Kings owner Preity Zinta was dumbfounded by Shashank Singh’s massive six during their match against Lucknow Super Giants.
PBKS put on another critical performance on Sunday to move forward in the race for the playoffs. They beat LSG and moved up to the second position in the standings with 15 points in 11 matches.
Preity Zinta, the owner of PBKS, was completely astonished when Shashank Singh hit an enormous six against LSG on Sunday. On the fourth ball of the 17th over of the innings, Shashank received a delivery from Mayank Yadav, which he then hit for a 92m six over deep backward square-leg. The ball hit the roof of a building and went outside the stadium.
The entire stadium was stunned by this impressive hit. Preity Zinta’s reaction was priceless and has gone viral on social media, inspiring memes and comments.
The PBKS batters together gave an incredible performance when asked to bat first against LSG. Prabhsimran Singh stood out with his outstanding knock, amassing 91 runs off 48 deliveries, including 6 fours and 7 sixes. Accompanying Prabhsimran, Shreyas Iyer (45) and Shashank Singh (33*) also contributed to putting up a huge score of 236 on the scoreboard.
In response to PBKS’s action-packed innings, LSG’s batting lineup could not do much. Ayush Badoni scored 74 off 40 balls but lacked support from his teammates. Lucknow could only score 199 for 7 in 20 overs.
After the match, Iyer praised his players, especially Prabhsimran, for his superb 91-run knock which was the major contributor in their win.
“Elated to be honest. Everyone stepped up at the right time. The contribution was immense from each and every individual. Prabhs the way he performed today was exceptional. All the shots played were exceptional to the eyes,” Iyer said in the post-match presentation.
