Lucknow (Uttar Pradesh) [India]April 2 (Ani): Opener and wicketkeeper Battery Prabhsimran Singh and captain Shreyas Iyer’s fifty stormed the Punjab Kings team to register the victory over Lucknow Super Giants on Tuesday at Bharat Ratna Shri Atal Bihari Vajpaye Ekana Cricket Stage in Lucknow. With this victory, the PBKS team moved to second position in the point table of the ongoing 18th edition of the Contantry League, while the Rishabh Pant-led team dropped to the loss to sixth position. PBKS opener Prabhsimran Singh (69 runs from 34 balls) chased a total of 172 runs, and Priyansh Arya (8 runs from 9 balls) attacked the Super Giants Bowlers of the first time. Both fighters built a Quickfire partnership of 26 runs from 17 balls before Arya returned to the pavilion in third place. After the departure of Arya, the team of the team and the right -hand batter Shreyas Iyer came out in the middle to bat with Prabhsimran. The Shreyas Iyer-led side completed their 50-run mark on the second ball of sixth place, while Prabsimran hit a border on the bowling of right-poor spinner Ravi Bishnoi. Prabhsimran completed his half-century on the last ball of seventh place, while the right-hand batter took a single on the bowling of the left arm spinner M. Siddharth. The Punjab-based franchise completed the 100-run mark on the first ball of the 10th, while Iyer took a single on the right arm’s bowling on the bowling of Shardul Thakur. At the score of 110, the visitors lost the wicket of Set Battery Prabhsimran who returned to the locker room after scoring 69 runs, which were nine boundaries and three maximum in his turn. After the dismissal of Prabhsimran, left -handed batter Nehal Wadhera came out to bat as an impact player while joining captain Iyer in the middle. Both players played positive and led their team to victory in 17th with eight wickets in hand. For the Lucknow franchise, two wickets were cut by the unparalleled leg-spinner Digvesh Singh Rathi in his game of four overs where he conceded 30 runs. Earlier in the first innings, after PBKS won the throw and only chose to bowl, LSG was a poor start when a slower delivery of Arshdeep Singh removed a Mitchell marsh in shape on a golden duck and left LSG at 1/1 in 0.4 overs. Third, Aiden Markram broke the shackles for LSG and hit Arshdeep for three boundaries in all parts of the ground. He continued his massacre with a four and a six over the deep backward point against Lockie Ferguson, but a poignant delivery crashed into his stumps. Markram was away for a well -made 28 in 18 balls (with four boundaries and a six). LSG was 32/2 in 3.5 overs. A poor draw attempt meant that the captain Rishabh Pant also did not survive for a long time, as a catch of Yuzi Chahal on a short fine leg on a glenn Maxwell delivery only returned him. LSG was 35/3 in 4.5 overs. The pair of Nichola Pooran and Ayush Badoni took LSG at the end of the PowerPlay in six overs to 39/3, making it a disappointing start to the home fans in Lucknow. Pooran collected a few boundaries against Maxwell and a six against Marcus Stoinis. LSG had their 50 runs in 7.1 overs. In 10th place, Pooran Chahal smoked for two fours and sixes and collected 15 runs to end the first 10 overs at 76/3, with him (33*) and Badoni (11*) unbeaten. A fifty -run counter -attack between these two came up in 37 balls. A fine catch of Maxwell on a Pacey delivery of Chahal ended Pooran’s zealous beat at 44 in 30 balls, with five fours and two sixes. LSG was 89/4 in 11.3 overs. LSG reached 100 runs in 13 overs, with a six of Ayush Badoni over extra deep coverage. His partnership with David Miller (19 in 18 balls, with three fours), was short-lived, as the South African was caught by Prabhsimran Singh on a Marco Jansen delivery after collecting a few boundaries against spinners. LSG was 119/5 in 15.5 overs. In 18th place, Badoni and Abdul Samad looted runs against Arshdeep, which brought the 150 run in 17.4 overs. The duo scored three fours and a six, with a total of 20 runs. However, Jansen spoke only eight runs in the penultimate. Badoni went high, but caught by Maxwell for 41 in 33 balls, with a four and three sixes. LSG was 166/6 in 19.2 overs. Samad’s Komo was also completed by a catch of Priyansh Arya for 27 in 12 balls (with two fours and two sixes). LSG was 169/7 in 19.4 overs. LSG finishes on 171/7 in 20 overs, with Shardul Thakur (3*) and Avesh Khan (0*) unbeaten. Arshdeep (3/43) was the upper wicketkeeper for PBKs. Lockie, Chahal, Maxwell and Jansen were also one of the wickets.
