Punjab Kings‘ opener Prabhsimran Singh delivered a thunderous 91 off 48 balls in Match 54 of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 against Lucknow Super Giants. His innings propelled PBKS to a massive total of 236/5 at the HPCA Stadium in Dharamsala. The 24-year-old combined power with precision, smashing 6 fours and 7 sixes during his stay. He shared impactful partnerships with Josh Inglis, Shreyas Iyer and Nehal Wadhera. This was his third consecutive fifty-plus score, marking a purple patch in IPL 2025.
Prabhsimran Singh’s explosive knock sets the tone for PBKS against Lucknow Super Giants
After PBKS lost Priyansh Arya early, Prabhsimran anchored the innings with a calculated assault, first steadying the ship with Inglis, who counter-attacked in the Powerplay. His 78-run partnership with Iyer helped PBKS maintain momentum before Iyer’s dismissal brought Wadhera to the crease. Even as wickets fell at the other end, Prabhsimran remained composed and accelerated with brutal efficiency, bringing up his fifty in just 29 balls. His eventual 91 off 48 deliveries came to an end in the 19th over, dismissed by Digvesh Rathi. The Punjab opener’s knock ensured his team crossed the 200-run mark, ending at 236/5. His calculated aggression and superb range of strokeplay were the standout features. Prabhsimran fell just 9 runs short of his second IPL century. Had he reached the three-figure mark, he would’ve joined an elite PBKS list alongside KL Rahul and Hashim Amla. Regardless, his innings laid a perfect platform for the Kings.
Record rush continues: Prabhsimran enters elite Punjab Kings list
Prabhsimran’s 91 wasn’t just a match-winning contribution, it was a historic milestone for the young batter. This was his third successive fifty-plus score in IPL 2025, following knocks of 83 and 54 against Kolkata Knight Riders and Chennai Super Kings, respectively. He has now equaled the record for most consecutive 50+ scores by a PBKS opener, alongside legends like Rahul and Chris Gayle. This remarkable consistency highlights his evolution from a promising talent to a core match-winner for Punjab. Debuting in 2019, Prabhsimran has stuck with the Kings franchise and continues to repay their faith. His fearless strokeplay and ability to adapt across situations make him a pivotal top-order force. With each passing game, he’s etching his name deeper into the PBKS record books.

PBKS retained both Shashank Singh and Prabhsimran Singh for just 9.5 crore. Might have retained Ashutosh as well if they had the option to retain three uncapped players.
