Digwesh Rathi cuisine celebrates the controversial ‘Notebook’ celebrations for Shreyas Iyer, another fine risk

Lucknow Super Veteran (LSG) spinner Digvesh Rathi brought back his fiery ‘Notebook’ festival against Punjab Kings (PBK), as he took two wickets in his IPL 2025 Clash on Sunday. The tournament celebrations were the most talked about, Digvesh’s acts have brought him into hot water and have imposed several fines this season. The penalty inspired Digwesh to tonna at his ceremonies, instead of him on the ground. However, after Shreyas Iyer and Prabhasimran Singh dismissed, Digwesh brought back his signature festival.

Digwesh brought back his signature ceremony first after dismissing Shreyas in the 13th over of PBKS’s innings.

He then chased it once again when he got Prabasimran’s wicket during the innings.

Digwesh first celebrated at the first meeting between LSG and PBK, when he rejected Priyanus Arya.

Digwesh was repeatedly fined by the officials of the first match in the season to celebrate the season, after which they resorted to the ground and not by hand. However, the full festival returned in Sunday’s match.

It will be interesting to see if the BCCI has once again punished Digwesh equally.

However, his wickets were not enough as Punjab Kings won a wide 37 runs over LSG, entering the top two in the IPL 2025 points table.

Rishabh Pant was again struggling for a lower score as his Lucknow Super veteran slipped for a fourth defeat in five IPL games, losing to Punjab Kings by 37 runs on Sunday.

Opener Prabasimran Singh scored 91 off 48 balls to pursue Punjab from 236–5, which was helped by several influential cameos in Dharmasala in another house of Kings.

Arshdeep Singh then returned the brilliant figures of 3-16 as Lucknow could only make 199-7 in response. Another failure for Pant India Star fell for 17 balls 18.

The pants snatched by LSG for a record price of Rs 27 crore in the November auction found no flow during their stay despite hitting two fours and one six.

The wicketkeeper-batsman has scored only 128 runs out of 10 innings this season.

The Lucknow table has three games with four points outside the seventh, fourth and final play-off spots.

After the seventh win of the campaign, Royal Challengers of Punjab leaders finished second behind Bangalore.

Left-Arm Seemar Arshdeep was never in chasing Lucknow after sending Mitchell Marsh twice in his second over, for a duck, and then to Aiden Markram to 13.
