Following their 54-run loss, he was seen speaking to Punjab Kings\u2019 in-form batter Priyansh Arya, who had torn into the bowling attack with a stunning 93 off just 37 balls.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"11\"\/><span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"13\"\/> At the same time, LSG skipper Rishabh Pant was involved in a separate conversation with PBKS co-owner Preity Zinta.

They registered their fifth win in six matches, climbing back to the top of the table. Priyansh Arya\u2019s explosive innings set the tone, Cooper Connolly added valuable support, and late contributions from Shashank Singh and Marcus Stoinis pushed PBKS to a massive total of 254.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"23\"\/> LSG, in contrast, had no answers to the target. Struggling for rhythm and consistency this season, they slipped to a third consecutive defeat. The heavy 54-run loss highlighted their ongoing issues, with the side now needing a quick turnaround to stop the slide and rebuild momentum.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"25\"\/><\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/timesofindia.indiatimes.com\/sports\/cricket\/ipl\/ipl-2026\/ipl-2026-sanjiv-goenka-rushes-to-priyansh-arya-preity-zinta-engages-with-rishabh-pant-after-pbks-hammer-lsg\/articleshow\/130390468.cms\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sanjiv Goenka with Priyansh Arya, Preity Zinta with Rishabh Pant Sanjiv Goenka of Lucknow Super Giants and Preity Zinta of Punjab Kings remain two of the most visible franchise owners in the IPL, regularly spotted following their teams closely from the stands.
