‘Keeps winning in the battle of Shashank Singhs’ – Fans react as Shashank plays a blinder to take Punjab Kings home

Shashank Singh played a blinder to win the game for his team, Punjab Kings (PBKS), out of nowhere against Gujarat Titans (GT) in Narendra Modi Stadium, Ahmedabad.

Shashank Singh played a blinder to win the game for his team, Punjab Kings (PBKS), out of nowhere against Gujarat Titans (GT) in Narendra Modi Stadium, Ahmedabad. When he came out to bat, PBKS were in a spot of bother and required another 130 runs in 11.2 overs with four wickets already down.

However, Shashank did the rescue work for PBKS and kept them in the chase by hitting consistent boundaries. While Sikandar Raza couldn’t provide him with much support, Jitesh Sharma first and Ashutosh Sharma later did a fabulous job of taking the innings forward.

Shashank completed fifty in just 25 balls but was determined to take his team over the line and didn’t celebrate excessively. He kept batting and was really hitting them well against a few quality and seasoned bowlers of GT.

The celebrations following the game were wild, and rightly so. Shashank had done an unbelievable and deserves all the applause for showing application and the ability to stay calm when the odds are against him.

The social media has been abuzz since Shashank’s blinder, with users churning out their thoughts on the players. Not only Punjab Kings’ fans – all the viewers watching the game expressed excitement at seeing a new talent in the world’s best T20 league.

Here are some reactions:

Punjab Kings were confused in the IPL 2024 auction and thought they had bought another batter with the same name before finding out it was a correct buy. Coming in a new position, Shashank proved his worth and showed he can win more matches and be a long-term investment for PBKS in the coming years.
