'Bas jeetna hai' - Preity Zinta elated after Punjab Kings' triumph over Mumbai Indians
PBKS will take on RCB in the all-important final of IPL 2025 on Tuesday, June 3.
Punjab Kings co-owner Preity Zinta took to X to celebrate PBKS' five-wicket win in IPL 2025 Qualifier 2 against Mumbai Indians at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad. Zinta was at the venue and was elated after PBKS got over the line in a tense run-chase.
She posted PBKS' X post on her feed with a caption: "Wow what a win. Punjabi aa gaye oye." Zinta has previously attended only one IPL final up until now, PBKS' (then KXIP) first against Kolkata Knight Riders in 2014 in Bengaluru, which had ended in heartbreak for the George Bailey-led side.
