NEW DELHI: Lucknow Super Giants’ batter Nicholas Pooran was in a destructive mood as he unleashed a breathtaking onslaught against Delhi Capitals in their Indian Premier League 2025 season opener at the ACA-VDCA Stadium in Visakhapatnam on Monday. Pooran, known for his clean hitting, smashed seven towering sixes and six boundaries during his whirlwind knock of 75 off just 30 balls.
The highlight of Pooran’s innings came in the 13th over, bowled by Delhi Capitals’ part-timer Tristan Stubbs, which turned out to be an absolute carnage. Stubbs started the over with a dot ball, giving the impression that he might be able to contain the explosive left-hander.
