PBKS Vs LSG Live Cricket Score, IPL 2026: Priyansh Arya Closes In On Century | Punjab Kings 141/1 (11.2)

Avesh Khan goes for the wide yorker, but misses the mark, and Priyansh Arya isn’t letting that go! It dips into a low full toss, just enough for him to free those wrists, and he slices it beautifully square of the wicket.

No brute force, just timing and control, and the ball keeps sailing… clears the ropes with ease! This is turning into something special, anything even remotely in his zone, he’s dispatching without breaking a sweat.

Mohsin Khan keeps banging it in short, but this is turning into a one-way contest now! Priyansh Arya rocks back in no time, picks the length early, and absolutely muscles the pull over backward square leg, clean, brutal, and into the stands for six.

They’ve kept feeding that zone and he’s making them pay every single time. It’s all PBKS early on, flying out of the blocks, and the pressure has already forced LSG into taking an early timeout.

It's a cracking start for Lucknow Super Giants with the ball, as an inspired Mohammed Shami induces Prabhsimran Singh's outside edge with a beautiful outswinger and Mitchell Marsh makes no mistake at slip. Punjab are rocked early, and Cooper Connolly walks out to the middle.
