In their last league match of IPL 2025, Punjab Kings beat five-time champions Mumbai Indians to claim the top spot in the points table. With this win, Punjab Kings have secured a place in the top two. Now, the final league match between RCB and LSG will decide who else joins them. Earlier, explosive Punjab Kings batsman Shashank Singh predicted his team would finish in the top two—and he was right.
In a recent interview, Shashank spoke about the team’s success under captain Shreyas Iyer and coach Ricky Ponting. He said that right after the auction, he set a goal in their WhatsApp group: “First finish in the top two, then win the IPL.” He also shared the story of their first team meeting.

Shashank Singh had predicted before the tournament that Punjab Kings would finish in the top 2, and now his words have come true. In an old interview on Shubhankar Mishra's podcast, Shashank confidently said that this time, Punjab would be among the top teams. After Punjab Kings' big win over Mumbai Indians, that video has started going viral once again. The franchise also shared the old clip of Shashank’s statement on their social media.
After Punjab (PBKS) secured their spot in the top 2, Shashank reacted by saying, “This season we played as a team. After the auction, we created a WhatsApp group and spoke about winning the title this year. Our first goal was to come in the top 2, and we have crossed that hurdle.” Punjab Kings have now reached Qualifier 1 after 11 years. The last time they reached this stage was in 2014. Now, under the captaincy of Shreyas Iyer, the team will get two chances to make it to the final and aim to win their first IPL trophy.
