Punjab Kings (PBKS) romped into their first IPL final in more than a decade on the back of a masterful knock by captain Shreyas Iyer in their high-pressure chase against Mumbai Indians in Qualifier 2 on Sunday evening. While the dramatic victory hogged all the limelight, Iyer's fiery argument with teammate Shashank Singh in the post-match moments grabbed quite some attention.
Pursuing a daunting goal of 204 at the Narendra Modi Stadium, PBKS were in a quandary in the middle of an innings. However, Iyer stepped up, steadying the innings with a breathtaking unbeaten 87 of 41 deliveries, including five boundaries and eight sixes.
