Punjab Kings, after defeating Mumbai Indians in the 69th match of the IPL 2025, solidified their chances to finish in the top 2 in the points table for the first time in 11 years. The last time the Punjab Kings finished in the top 2 or even qualified for the playoffs was in 2014 when they ended up as the runner-up. In 2024, Punjab Kings played some great matches, and uncapped player Shashank Singh was one of the season’s highlights. Now, as Punjab Kings is destined to finish their league stage, being in the top 2, an old clip of Shashank Singh is going viral on social media.
In the podcast show with journalist Shubhankar Mishra, the batting all-rounder told way before the season’s start that Punjab Kings would end the season in the top two, and that prophecy came true as Punjab Kings will finish the league stage either at the top or second position.
“Punjab Kings Number one. Top Two Bol Raha Hu. Jis Din 14th match hoga message karunga aapko ki mera podcast chala do first. (I am saying top two. The day of the 14th match, I will message you to play my podcast again,”
Shashank said
Reacting to his old video, Shashank Singh said this and credited the team management, especially skipper Shreyas Iyer and coach Ricky Ponting, who gave the team that confidence from Day 1 of the season, and every player executed that plan.
“It feels surreal. Finishing in the top two is not easy in a league like the IPL. To be very honest, it’s very satisfying. “No. I always believed. The day I met Shreyas and Ricky Ponting. I knew whatever statement made. I had a word with Shreyas, he asked me what the difference is between believing and doing. Earlier, I just believed. Now I know. The best thing is, obviously, we manifested this as a team, not just individually, but as a unit. Right after the auction, we created a WhatsApp group and talked about winning the title this year. Our first aim was to finish in the top two, and we’ve cleared that hurdle,”
He added
