Mohali Kings pull off a stunning 178‑run chase in 13 overs, winning by eight wickets
In a high‑octane match at IS Bindra Stadium, Mohali Kings turned a precarious 27/2 into a 154‑run partnership, clinching an eight‑wicket victory over Jalandhar Warriors.
It was a crisp evening at IS Bindra Stadium in Mohali when the Sher‑E‑Punjab T20 League delivered one of its most dramatic finishes. Jalandhar Warriors set a daunting target of 178 runs in a truncated 14‑over innings, leaving the Kings with a mountain to climb.
The Warriors got off to a flyer. Openers Vishwanath Singh and Prabhsimran Singh combined for a rapid 63‑run opening stand, with Vishwanath smashing 40 off just 19 balls and Prabhsimran adding 37 off 18. After Vishwanath fell, Jalandhar stumbled a bit, but Harjas Tandon steadied things with a quickfire 37 off 16, while the tail‑enders Abhinav Sharma (16 off 10) and Mayank Gupta (16 off 6) helped seal a respectable 177/7.
For Mohali, the chase began poorly. Two wickets fell quickly and the scoreboard read a meek 27 for 2. The crowd’s murmurs turned into a hush as the Kings seemed to be in trouble.
Then came the partnership that rewrote the script. Anmolpreet Singh, calm and collected, pumped out 61 runs from 29 balls. At the other end, Ramandeep Singh exploded – 91 not out off only 35 deliveries, laced with eight sixes and six fours. Together they forged an unbeaten 154‑run stand for the third wicket, dragging Mohali from 27/2 to the finish line in just 13 overs.
Harpreet Brar was the pick‑of‑the‑bowlers for the Kings, claiming 2 for 24 in three overs, but it was the batting fireworks that stole the show. The Kings rattled the ropes, eventually cruising home with eight wickets in hand, a victory that felt almost effortless after those two men took charge.
Beyond the numbers, the match reminded everyone why T20 cricket is beloved: a roller‑coaster of momentum, a few key heroics, and a finish that leaves fans buzzing. Mohali Kings’ stunning chase will be talked about for weeks, while Jalandhar Warriors will look back, wondering how a seemingly comfortable total slipped away.
