PBKS broke its own record it set in 2024 when the team chased down 261 against Kolkata Knight Riders.
Batting first, DC posted a massive 264/2 from its 20 overs thanks to a scintillating century by Rahul, the opener’s highest score and the highest score by an Indian in the IPL.
DC would have thought it had more than enough on the board but PBKS openers Priyansh Arya (43 off 17 balls) and Prabhsimran Singh (76 off 26 balls) took matters into their own hands and took the DC bowlers to all parts of the park.
Priyansh and Prabhsimran were at their destructive best to help Punjab Kings post 100 within the PowerPlay. Thereafter, captain Shreyas Iyer (71 off 36 balls) with ample support from Nehal Wadhera and Shashank Singh at the other end paced the chase to perfection to take his side to a memorable win with seven balls to spare.

#PBKS #IPL #Nitish #Rana #Punjab #Kings">DC vs PBKS IPL 2026: Why was Nitish Rana given not out against Punjab Kings?
DC batter Nitish Rana was adjudged not out by the third umpire after being caught at deep square leg.
Rana was batting at 74 off 38 balls when he was caught by Marcus Stoinis at deep square leg. Just as he was walking back to the dugout and David Miller was coming into bat, Rana was asked to wait by the umpire just to make sure it was a clean catch, as Stoinis had completed the catch on the ground close to the boundary line.
Stoinis’ body language suggested that it was a clean catch, but replays however showed that the Australian’s right leg touched the boundary rope as he completed the catch. The decision was subsequently reversed, and Rana came back to bat.
The 32-year-old was eventually dismissed by Bartlett in the 19th over after scoring a well made 91 off 44 balls.
