Pooran is LSG’s designated finisher and has delivered on his promise. He smashed the second fastest fifty in IPL 2023 against RCB earlier this season. On Saturday, he once again got his team over the line with his hitting prowess.

As for Sunrisers, they will look back on their former player with a pinch of regret. While Heinrich Klaasen has performed well, Pooran was the difference between victory and defeat tonight. He was bought for 10.75 Crore in IPL 2022 Auction, but released before IPL 2023.
