IPL 2025: Nehal Wadhera Credits Ponting And Iyer For PBKS' Historic Win Over KKR
Kolkata Knight Riders: Punjab Kings’ batter Nehal Wadhera has credited head coach Ricky Ponting and captain Shreyas Iyer for inspiring the team to pull off a memorable 16-run win against Kolkata Knight Riders in Match 31 of IPL 2025. PBKS defended just 111 runs – the lowest total ever defended in IPL history – by bowling out KKR for 95.
Speaking at the post-match press conference, Wadhera praised Ponting’s positive attitude and how it lifted the morale of the team, even after being bowled out for a low total.
“I have never ever heard a negative word come out from his mouth. When your coach is of such a character and the way he inspires everyone Even when we got out all out for 111, he just said that, 'Ok, today our bowlers need to get the job done. I need some really fiery spells today.' You know, automatically when players listen to such things from our coach, the confidence automatically, just boosts up,” said Wadhera in the post-match press conference.
