‘Dal Makhani tonight’ - Nicholas Pooran and Arshdeep Singh engage in hilarious banter before PBKS vs LSG clash in IPL 2023

Ahead of Punjab Kings’ match against Lucknow Super Giants in the ongoing IPL 2023, the flamboyant batter, Nicholas Pooran, engages in a hilarious conversation with ace pacer Arshdeep Singh after the training. Notably, the West Indies international asked the youngster to treat him with Dal Makhani later in the day while Arshdeep replied that if Pooran doesn’t hit a six against him in the match, then he surely will give a treat to Pooran.

In return, the 27-year-old mentioned that he never smashes sixes against Arshdeep and only deals in singles. Pooran also lauded the young pacer for his toe-crushing yorkers and later once again mentioned that he wants to have Dal Makhani later in the night along with Paneer Butter Masala and Butter Chicken.

“Dal Makhani. Dal Makhani tonight. Arshdeep, can you carry Dal Makhani for us tonight?” asked Pooran as the video shared by the Lucknow-based team went viral on social media.

“Yeah, as long as you promise me you won’t hit me for a six,” Arshdeep cheekily responded to  Pooran’s request.

“Of course bro, I only hit you for singles, you know that. Every time you bowl yorkers to me, So will you carry some Dal Makhani for us tonight?” Pooran once again asked as Arshdeep was seen meeting other LSG players on the ground. This left everyone in splits as the PBKS pacer trolled Pooran by saying that there was life beyond the Dal Makhni too.

Lucknow Super Giants will aim to bounce back in the IPL Points Table

After suffering an embarrassing defeat at the hands of Gujarat Titans in their last match, the Lucknow Super Giants have slipped in the IPL Points Table as they now rank fourth on the list. Thus, against Punjab, the KL Rahul-led side will aim to bounce back and regain their position in the top two.

The Punjab Kings, however, will not make it any easy for them. They have played some brilliant cricket under the leadership of Sam Curran in the recent past and courtesy of which, they are just two places behind Lucknow at the moment. If the home side manages to register their fifth win on April 28, they will move to the top four of the table.
