'Nawabo ne Adab se haraya' -Fans react as Lucknow Super Giants win thrilling match against Rajasthan Royals in IPL 2025

A dream IPL debut for 14-year-old Vaibhav Suryavanshi. He started his IPL career with a six in the first he faced. The first innings of Rajasthan Royals (RR) vs. Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) was lit by a blistering Abdul Samad; the second was all about Vaibhav Suryavanshi. Netizens around all social media platforms are chanting the boy's name— what a talent! 

Batting first, LSG scored 180 after losing 5 wickets, powered by Abdul Samad's 30* (10), Ayush Badoni's 66 runs, and opener Aiden Markram. Aiden and Badoni shaped their team for a possible fight score, and then, at the lower middle order, Abdul smashed 26 alone in the 20th over to take LSG to 180. 

Cricket fans were curious to see how Vaibhav Suryavanshi performed today. No one was expecting that he could launch his first-ever IPL match with a maximum. The left-handed batter was looking good enough to claim a 50 in his debut IPL match, but he fell short by only 16 runs; he bagged 34 in 20 balls. Yashasvi Jaiswal made a steady 74 on top of the batting order. Captain of Rajasthan Royals for tonight's game, as Sanju Samson was unavailable due to injury, scored 39.

It was Avesh Khan who changed the fate of the match

At a point in the match when Jaiswal and Suryavanshi were on the pitch, it looked like the momentum of the match completely shifted towards Rajasthan, but there was a twist in the end. 

It was Avesh Khan who added more spice to the game with a 3-wicket haul. Two crucial wickets at the peak point of the match. Dhruv Jurel and Shubham Dubey remained not out but couldn't help their team to reach the finish line. After a rollercoaster fight between two IPL teams, LSG emerged victorious with only 2 runs in hand.
