IPL 2026: Prabhsiman, Iyer Fifties Help PBKS Beat MI As De Kock Ton Goes In Vain
Indian Premier League: The magical combination of Prabhsimran Singh and Shreyas Iyer hammered half-centuries each in their second successive match and shared another crucial partnership as they helped Punjab Kings romp to a seven-wicket victory over the Mumbai Indians in Match 24 of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2026 at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai on Thursday.
Prabhsimran and Shreyas Iyer had scored half-centuries to help PBKS beat Sunrisers Hyderabad a couple of days back, and on Thursday, they mastered another chase with the former hammering 80 not off 39 balls and the latter scoring 66 off 35 as PBKS reached 198/3 in 16.3 overs after inserting Mumbai Indians in and restricting them to 195/6 despite a scintillating unbeaten century by Quinton de Kock (112*) and fifty by Naman Dhir.
While Prabhsimran scored his second fifty of IPL 2026, Iyer hammered his third successive half-century in the tournament, but this one would be more satisfactory for him as it came at his home ground and against a team that had three members of the T20 World Cup-winning Indian team, for which he was not considered.
