Kings find chink in Knight Riders' armour to claim thrilling victory

IPL2025: Chahal, Jansen power Punjab to historic win against KKR in low-scoring thriller New Chandigarh, April 15 (IANS) Yuzvendra Chahal returned with career-best tournament figures of 4-28 while pacer Marco Jansen picked three scalps to stage a thrilling 16-run win for Punjab Kings against Kolkata Knight Riders in the IPL 2025 at Maharaja Yadavindra Singh International Cricket Stadium on Tuesday.

Punjab bowlers bowled with a plethora of courage to pull off a thriller as they defended the lowest total in the IPL's history.

Earlier, Harshit Rana claimed three wickets while the spin duo of Varun Chakaravarthy and Sunil Narine bagged two scalps each to bundle out Punjab Kings for III in 15.3 overs.

Chasing 112, Kolkata lost both their openers Sunil Narine (5) and Quinton de Kock (2) in quick intervals as Marco Jansen and debutant Xavier Bartlett gave the early breakthroughs to Punjab.

Captain Ajinkya Rahane and Angkrish Raghuvanshi took a cautious approach and steered the side to 55/2 at the end of the powerplay. The duo stitched a 60-run partnership as the KKR were looking confident to win the match.

Casting director urged Shirley Henderson to ignore age

What was the question again? Sorry, I'm dreadful...\" It's the third time — or is it the fourth? — that Shirley Henderson has said this during our interview.
