Connolly's 72 seals nervy Punjab Kings win over Gujarat Titans

Cooper Connolly’s unbeaten 72 off 44 balls guided Punjab Kings to a three-wicket victory over Gujarat Titans in a thrilling IPL encounter.

Prabhsimran Singh provided early impetus with 37 before Connolly and Xavier Bartlett steadied the ship in the final overs to secure the win.

Gujarat Titans, despite half-centuries from Shubman Gill and Jos Buttler, failed to build a substantial total. The visitors struggled to find rhythm on a challenging surface, leaving Punjab to chase a target they secured with nerves of steel.
