The incident unfolded in the 13th over of PBKS' innings against LSG.
Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) spinner Digvesh Rathi pulled off the notebook celebration during his team’s IPL 2025 clash against Punjab Kings (PBKS) in Dharamsala on Sunday (May 4).
The moment came in the 13th over of Punjab’s innings when Digvesh got the prized scalp of Shreyas Iyer. While the PBKS captain smashed him for a big six on the first delivery, the leg-spinner bounced back to dismiss him on the second ball.
After the dismissal, Digvesh brought out his trademark notebook celebration, despite the gesture led to him being fined twice earlier in the season.
It remains to be seen if Digvesh Rathi faces punishment again for his signature celebration or not.
Here’s the video:
Shreyas Iyer’s dismissal on 45 (25 balls) reduced PBKS to 128/3. Asked to bat first, Punjab lost Priyansh Arya cheaply in the very first over for just 1, Prabhsimran Singh (67 off 40), Josh Inglis (30 off 14) and Shreyas played handy knocks to put the team in a strong position.
