The IPL 2026 season has now started to give fans some thrilling matches. And one of them was yesterday, as the Punjab Kings went against the Gujarat Titans. While the Gujarat Titans batted well in the first innings, the Punjab went on to lose quick wickets in their chase.
But their chase was handled well by a number three batsman, and it was Cooper Connolly. He went on to score 72 runs off 44 balls in the chase, which ensured that the Punjab Kings remained in the game. Even though no other batter stood well consistently at the crease, he led the charge from the front.
Towards the end, he received some support from players such as Marco Jansen and Xavier Bartlett, which helped Punjab Kings to finally win the game. With the team standing at the score of 118/6, Connolly took all the pressure and led his side to an impressive win in their opening game.
Let's see how fans on Twitter have reacted to the same.
