Samad's propelled LSG to a competitive total of 180 for 5 in 20 overs.
Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) finisher Abdul Samad played his role to perfection by slamming four sixes in the final over of their innings in the match against the Rajasthan Royals (RR) in the ongoing Indian Premier League (IPL 2025).
Samad’s late flourish against Sandeep Sharma propelled LSG to a competitive total of 180 for 5 in 20 overs. The first maximum came on the second ball of the over as Sandeep tried to go for the blockhole but missed the length. Next, Abdul read Sandeep’s back of a length delivery and pulled it over right of midwicket.
Samad again repeated the double blow in the final two deliveries as Sandeep ended up leaking a total of 27 runs from the last six deliveries.

Speaking about the RR vs LSG match, apart from Samad’s late fireworks, Aiden Markram (66 off 45) and Ayush Badoni (50 off 34) slammed crucial fifties.
While the Royals put up a decent bowling performance, the late heroics from Abdul Samad shifted the momentum in LSG’s favour before they come out to defend.
The Royals, on the other hand, are set to have a new face at the top of the order. 14-year-old wonderkid Vaibhav Suryavanshi has been handed a debut by the RR management and the youngster will be replacing skipper Sanju Samson. He will now open the innings alongside another Rajasthan product- Yashasvi Jasiwal.
For LSG, they will have a task cut-out to get an early breakthrough in a bid to tip the scales and put RR on the backfoot.
