Punjab Kings co-owner Preity Zinta was not a happy person after the defeat against Delhi Capital in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 match on Saturday, but all paid their team a PLCE in the top 2 places of the points table. Qualifier 1 needs to defeat DC to keep the merit in your hands, but the defeat in the encounter now leaves them at the mercy of other franchisees. For Zinta, who watched the match from a closed quarter, stated that an expensive error by the third umpire in the match contributed to his team’s defeat.

In the 15th over of the first innings, PBKS star Shashank Singh hit Mohit Sharma of Delhi in six. On the border rope, Karun Nair Holded the ball and pushed it inside the border rope, although he indicated that it was six because his leg touched the rope. As the third umpire ran the check, Nair’s leg found no evidence to touch the border rope. Therefore, the Punjab batsman was allotted only one run.

However, Zinta fled the umpire after the match, suggesting that Nair also said it should have been six.

“Such mistakes are unacceptable in such a high profile tournament with so much technology at the disposal of the third umpire and it should not be just that. I spoke to Karun after the game and confirmed that it was definitely a 6! I relax my case!

Despite Nair’s confirmation that it was a six, the third umpire’s decision left many people in the Punjab Kings Camp.

Necklace against DC means that PBK has a lot to play in his final league game of the campaign against Mumbai Indians, another franchise is looking nail of a top two location.
