Mullanpur: A blistering century by Priyansh Arya and a composed half-century from Shashank Singh powered Punjab Kings to a commanding 18-run win over Chennai Super Kings in their IPL 2025 encounter on Tuesday. Despite a late flourish from the ever-reliable MS Dhoni, Chennai fell short in their chase of Punjab’s mammoth 219/6, slumping to their fourth successive defeat after winning their opening game.
The hero of the day was 21-year-old Priyansh Arya, who stunned the Chennai bowling attack with a sensational 103 off just 39 balls. His knock, the fourth-fastest century in IPL history, laid the foundation for Punjab’s dominant total. Arya, playing in his debut season, showcased fearless batting, smashing boundaries with confidence and composure.
“It’s out of this world,” Arya said after being named Player of the Match. “Shreyas bhaiya told me to bat with intent, and that helped me back myself. I just wanted to play my natural game.”
Punjab skipper Shreyas Iyer praised Arya’s mindset and execution, saying, “This is the template we want — free-flowing, fearless cricket. Priyansh’s knock was one of the best I’ve seen in the IPL.”
Chennai’s fielding woes continued, with several dropped catches proving costly. Captain Ruturaj Gaikwad acknowledged the issue, stating, “Dropped catches have hurt us in all four games. Every time we miss one, the batter adds 20-30 crucial runs.”
Despite early wickets, Chennai’s chase remained alive, thanks to solid contributions at the top and a late blitz from Dhoni. However, tight death bowling and smart tactics from Punjab saw them over the line.
“We were two or three hits away,” Gaikwad reflected. “But we take positives — improved batting and a strong powerplay. Just need to sharpen our fielding.”
With this win, Punjab Kings appear to have found a potent formula, while Chennai will need to regroup quickly to avoid slipping further down the table.

For Anthony Edwards and the Wolves, Game 3 win was more than just a win
MINNEAPOLIS — Moments after plunging the dagger into the Los Angeles Lakers, Anthony Edwards bounded euphorically toward the sideline seats where his older brother, Bubba, and best friend, Nick Maddox, take in every Minnesota Timberwolves home game.It took him five skips to cross the hardwood and meet his crew and the sea of Wolves fans screaming at the top of their lungs. Each time he hopped into the air, he may as well have been jumping over one of the team’s many clutch-time failures, leaving them all behind in the din of Target Center. Each spring forward brought these fans a little closer to believing their team is capable of taking down LeBron James, Luka Dončić and the team that left them for Los Angeles 65 years ago.

Ex-Premier-League-Coach sicher – Bayern-Star das letzte Puzzlestück für Liverpool
Liverpool und Bayern-Star Harry Kane (31) – ein Traumduo! Das jedenfalls meint Martin Jol, ehemaliger Trainer von Tottenham Hotspur. Neben Super-Stürmer Mohamed Salah (32) könnte der Engländer „unglaublich“ sein, sagte Jol in einem Gespräch mit Journalisten in der neuen Sports Betting Lounge des Grosvenor Casino Luton.Jol betonte, wie wichtig es sei, Salah und Kapitän Virgil van Dijk langfristig an den Verein gebunden zu haben. „Liverpool ist ein Top-Klub und wird immer einen Weg finden, erfolgreich zu sein, egal wer das Sagen hat“, so der 69-Jährige. „Der Schlüssel für Arne Slot – und ich kenne ihn gut – ist, Weltklasse-Spieler wie van Dijk und Salah zu halten. Und genau das ist geschehen.“Jetzt habe Liverpool die Basis gesichert, um nächste Saison wieder um den Premier-League-Titel zu kämpfen, glaubt Jol. „Das Einzige, was Liverpool vielleicht fehlt, ist eine echte Nummer neun. Ich persönlich […]

Celtics-Magic has been a physical battle. Jaylen Brown thinks the fight’s just begun
ORLANDO — Kristaps Porziņģis had five stitches in his forehead. Jayson Tatum winced as he flexed his injured right wrist. Jaylen Brown, already dealing with a knee issue, revealed that he dislocated the index finger on his left hand after a first-half flagrant foul from Cole Anthony.The Celtics wore the evidence of a physical first-round series after a 95-93 Game 3 loss to the Magic on Friday night. Brown downplayed his newest injury, saying he will be all right because he has nine more fingers, but wondered what might come next.Advertisement“There might be a fight break out or something,” said Brown, “because it’s starting to feel like it’s not even basketball and the refs are not controlling their environment.
