Punjab Kings (PBKS) and Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) shared one point each after rain played spoilsport in the 44th match of IPL 2025. The game was played at the Eden Gardens in Kolkata on Saturday, April 26.
After winning the toss, PBKS skipper Shreyas Iyer elected to bat first. Openers Priyansh Arya and Prabhsimran Singh amassed a 120-run stand for the first wicket. While Arya smacked 69 runs in 35 balls with eight fours and four sixes, Singh smashed 83 runs in 49 balls with six fours and as many sixes.
Later, Shreyas Iyer (25*) and Josh Inglis (11*) propelled PBKS to 201/6 in 20 overs. Vaibhav Arora scalped the wickets of Singh and Marco Jansen while Varun Chakravarthy and Andre Russell pocketed one wicket apiece.
Just when KKR started the chase, scoring seven runs in one over, the rain interrupted play. Eventually, the game had to be called off due to heavy winds and heavy rainfall at the venue.
