It all started with the bat, as Lucknow Super Giants, led by stand-in skipper Nicholas Pooran, posted a competitive total of 199/8, powered by a late blitz from floater Krunal Pandya. Quinton de Kock's explosive 54 and Pooran's brisk 42 injected life into the innings, setting the stage for an enthralling contest.
But it was Mayank Yadav's moment to shine. With his searing pace, Mayank wreaked havoc on the Punjab Kings' batting lineup, clocking speeds of over 150 kmph and rattling the opposition with his sheer intensity. His spell of 3/27, including the tournament's fastest delivery at 155.8 kmph, marked him as the night's hero.

Despite a blazing start from Punjab Kings' openers Shikhar Dhawan and Jonny Bairstow, Mayank's relentless bowling proved too much to handle. Bairstow's dismissal, courtesy of Mayank's maiden IPL wicket, shifted the momentum in Lucknow's favor. Prabhsimran Singh's quickfire cameo was also cut short by Mayank's lethal pace, further denting Punjab's hopes.
