Punjab Kings (PBKS) have once again made history by breaking their own world record for the highest successful run chase in T20 cricket. This remarkable feat has been achieved twice in just two years. The first instance was in 2024 when they successfully chased down KKR’s 261 runs. Now, in 2026, they have outdone themselves by gunning down 265 runs against Delhi Capitals (DC) with 7 balls to spare.
The PBKS openers, Prabhsimran Singh and Priyansh Arya, played a crucial role in setting the tone for the chase. They got off to a flying start, accumulating 116 runs in the powerplay, which laid a strong foundation for the rest of the team to build on. Their aggressive and fearless approach to batting put the opposition on the back foot from the beginning.
This record-breaking chase not only showcases the firepower of the PBKS batting lineup but also highlights their ability to handle pressure situations with composure and confidence. It is a testament to the team’s resilience and determination to never give up, no matter the odds. PBKS have once again proven why they are a force to be reckoned with in the world of T20 cricket.
