IPL 2025: Who said what - What did Rishabh Pant and Shreyas Iyer say after PBKS vs LSG, Match 54?

Punjab Kings secured a 37-run dominating win over the Lucknow Super Giants in the 54th match of the IPL 2025 season at the Himachal Pradesh Cricket Association Stadium in Dharamsala on Sunday, May 4.

Let’s shift our focus to who said what after the Punjab Kings’ victory over the Lucknow Super Giants.

LSG captain, Rishabh Pant:

“Definitely too many runs. When you drop crucial catches at the wrong time, it is going to hurt you badly. We thought it was going to do more. We didn't pick the length right at the start. That's part and parcel of the game. 

The dream is still alive. If we're gonna win the next three matches, we definitely can turn it around. It makes sense when your top order is batting really well. Every match you can't hope they will come off nicely. It's part of the game. We need to take the game deep. Every time they can't do the heavy job for us. Like you said in the first, we had too many to chase. That hurt us badly.”

Player of the match, Prabhsimran Singh:

“It is a very good knock and 2 points matters to us a lot and I am happy that it came in a winning cause. I was set when I was dropped, I wanted to capitalise on the drop. Failed to read the wicket initially, it took a little time and then we decided we needed to make 200. 

Whatever the situation demands, someone from our batting unit has been stepping up every game and good that we are winning too.”

PBKS captain, Shreyas Iyer:

“Elated to be honest. Everyone stepped up at the right time. The contribution was immense from each and every individual. Prabhs the way he performed today was exceptional. All the shots played were exceptional to the eyes. (on their poor record at this venue) I'm glad I did not know about it. 

I stepped on to the pitch to win the match, that was my mindset. We have been lucky so far, the luck has been there because of the hard work and the commitment shown. Everyone stepping at the right time, each and every individual knows their roles precisely. There's only one thing we need to correct - that is the awareness and the way we move on the field. 

Just back yourself and back your instincts and not think too much about the stats and what it can offer. Results do matter and that is winning.
