IPL 2026: Arya, Connolly, Bowlers Help PBKS Extend Unbeaten Run With 54-run Win Over LSG (Ld)
Maharaja Yadavindra Singh International Cricket: Blazing half-centuries from opener Priyansh Arya (93 off 37 balls) and Australian southpaw Cooper Connolly (87 off 46 balls), followed by a clinical bowling performance, powered Punjab Kings to a clinical 54-run victory over Lucknow Super Giants in their IPL 2026 clash on Sunday.
At a packed Maharaja Yadavindra Singh International Cricket Stadium, PBKS defended a season-high total of 254/7 by restricting LSG to 200/5. With this win, the in-form PBKS extended their unbeaten run to remain at the top of the points table, while LSG slumped to their third straight loss and be at number eight.
Arya and Connolly produced a breathtaking display of modern-day power-hitting while sharing a 182-run second-wicket partnership and shatter LSG’s bowling rhythm to post the highest score of this season. With the aim to send every ball past the boundary ropes, Arya hit four boundaries and nine sixes at will, while Connolly matched him step by step by smashing eight fours and seven sixes.
