NEW DELHI :Rajasthan Royals captain Riyan Parag became the first batter in the Indian Premier League's history to smash six sixes off successive deliveries he faced even if it could not prevent their narrow loss to Kolkata Knight Riders on Sunday.
Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) captain Rishabh Pant wasn't able to bring an end to his poor run of form with the bat, falling for yet another underwhelming score in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 season. After the trio of Mitchell Marsh, Aiden Markram, and Nicholas Pooran fell early, the onus was on Pant, Ayush Badoni, and other middle-order batters to resurrect the team's position in the chase of 237 runs against Punjab. But, LSG could only reach 199/7, despite Badoni's 40-ball 74. Once again this season, Lucknow were let down by their captain, Pant, when they needed him the most, and owner Sanjiv Goenka's reaction summed up the feeling in the dugout.
A dejected Lucknow Super Giant skipper Rishabh Pant is still dreaming of sneaking into the IPL play-offs with three wins in the remaining three games despite another poor batting effort by the top-order in their 37-run defeat at the hands of Punjab Kings on Sunday. LSG have 10 points from 11 games and are currently placed seventh in the league table. With a net run-rate of -0.47, merely winning three games might not be enough for Pant and his men to make it to the play-offs. "The dream is still alive. If we can win the next three matches, we can definitely turn around and do amazing things," Pant said at the post match presentation ceremony.
Punjab Kings vs Lucknow Super Giants Live Score, IPL 2025: Prabhsimran Singh and Shreyas Iyer have kept the scoreboard ticking for two-down Punjab Kings against Lucknow Super Giants in their IPL 2025 game at Himachal Pradesh Cricket Association Stadium, Dharamsala.

MUMBAI: Pace bowler Jasprit Bumrah returned figures of 4-22 to lead IPL heavyweights Mumbai Indians to their fifth successive win with a 54-run hammering of Lucknow Super Giants on Sunday. Five-time champions Mumbai posted 215-7 after South Africa’s Ryan Rickleton, a left-hand wicketkeeper-batsman, hit 58 and Suryakumar Yadav hammered 54 at the Wankhede Stadium. All the bowlers contributed, including England’s Will Jacks who took two wickets in one over, as Mumbai bowled out Lucknow for 161, pushing them up to second in the 10-team table in the T20 tournament. It was Mumbai’s 150th victory in the Indian Premier League, the first time for any team in the league. Bumrah stood out after he dismissed Aiden Markram to go past former quick Lasith Malinga’s record of 170 IPL wickets to become Mumbai’s leading bowler. Bumrah, who has returned from a back injury that made him miss India’s Champions Trophy title win in Dubai last month, now has 174 wickets. Lucknow opener Mitchell Marsh and Nicholas Pooran hit back with a flurry of boundaries in their breezy partnership of 42. Jacks got Pooran out for 27 with his off-spin and struck two balls later to send back Lucknow skipper Rishabh Pant, caught out for four while the left-hander attempted a reverse sweep. Wicketkeeper-batsman Pant, who was brought by Lucknow at an all-time auction record of $3.21 million in November, has flopped with the bat, scoring just 110 runs in nine innings. New Zealand left-arm quick Trent Boult took down Australia’s Marsh for 34 and later got Ayush Badoni out on 35 to derail the chase and returned figures of 3-20. Wickets kept tumbling and Bumrah returned to take three in one including impact player David Miller out for 24 to shut out Lucknow. The

Delhi Capitals registered a thumping victory over Lucknow Super Giants in their IPL 2025 match on Tuesday at the Ekana Stadium in Lucknow. Opting to bowl first, DC restricted LSG to 159/6 with pacer Mukesh Kumar scalping four wickets. Later, DC chased down the target in just 17.5 overs and eight wickets in hand with KL Rahul and Abishek Porel hitting half-centuries. This was DC's sixth victory after eight games while for LSG, it was fourth loss after nine matches.
Following an unfortunate incident, Lucknow Super Giants star batter Nicholas Pooran made a fan's day by gifting him a signed cap. Notably, during LSG's IPL 2025 match against Gujarat Titans, one of Pooran's monstrous sixes had hit on the head of the fan at Lucknow's Ekana Stadium. The fan, whose was identified as Nabeel, was then taken to a hospital to receive a quick medical treatment. However, ahead of the match against Delhi Capitals on Monday, Pooran met Nabeel and even apologised for his shot.
