LSG Star Nicholas Pooran Seethes with Frustration After Costly Loss to SRH

The fiery clash between Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) and Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) in IPL 2025 took an ugly turn when Nicholas Pooran lost his temper after a crushing defeat. SRH outclassed LSG in a must-win match, leaving Pooran visibly frustrated as he threw his pad in anger, targeting a teammate.

SRH’s Dominant Batting Crushes LSG’s Hopes

Asked to bat first, LSG posted a competitive 205/7, thanks to fiery half-centuries from Mitchell Marsh (68 off 35) and Aiden Markram (54 off 28). However, SRH’s explosive openers Abhishek Sharma (59 off 20) and Travis Head (42 off 18) demolished LSG’s bowling attack, chasing down the target with 10 balls to spare.

*”The way SRH batted, they made a 200+ total look easy. LSG’s bowlers had no answers,”* said a commentator.
