In what was turning out to be an electrifying showdown at Eden Gardens, the 44th IPL 2025 match between Punjab Kings and Kolkata Knight Riders had the ill luck of being a no result due to rain.

Kolkata Knight Riders vs Punjab Kings Match Highlights

Priyansh and Prabhsimran Set the Stage on Fire

After winning the toss, Punjab Kings opted to bat first and made the most of the opportunity. Their innings was beautifully set up by a thrilling opening partnership between Prabhsimran Singh and Priyansh Arya.

The pair contributed a 120-run stand, with Priyansh scoring 69 runs off only 35 balls, including 8 fours and 4 sixes at a destructive strike rate of 197.14. Prabhsimran complemented him well with a remarkable 83 off 49 balls, with 6 fours and 6 sixes in a strike rate of 169.39.

Their attacking start laid a robust foundation for PBKS, and the middle order made the most of it. Shreyas Iyer 25* from 16 balls and Josh Inglis 11* from 6 balls added quick runs towards the fag end as Punjab Kings tallied a commanding 201 for 4 from 20 overs.

For bowling, KKR’s most successful bowler was Vaibhav Arora with two wickets, while one each was contributed by Russell and Varun Chakaravarthy.

KKR replied with one over when play was disrupted due to rain. They scored 7 runs with no loss of wicket as Sunil Narine was left on 4 not out and Rahmanullah Gurbaz at 1. Marco Jansen took one over in partnership before rain halted play.

Rain Washes Out the Thriller

Uninterrupted rain later forced the game to be abandoned without a decision. While the disappointment was present, Punjab Kings would have many positives to take from their batting effort, especially the form shown by Priyansh Arya and Prabhsimran Singh.

Their aggressive opening partnership not only took PBKS past the 200-run mark but also sealed their growing reputation as one of the most deadly opening combinations in the tournament.

The no result binds both sides together with points, adding even more pressure as the playoff battle in the IPL 2025 heats up.
