After delivering a match-winning final over to assist Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) secure a dramatic two-run victory over Rajasthan Royals in IPL 2025 on Saturday, pacer Avesh Khan had a heartfelt moment off the pitch that grabbed the hearts of fans throughout the country.
While his figures — 3 for 37, including a stunning final over defending nine runs — demonstrated his cricketing prowess, it was a behind-the-scenes video posted by LSG that truly stole the show.
In the footage, Avesh Khan is seen making a video call to his mother following his heroic attempt. As emotions flowed in from the other side of the screen, colleague Nicholas Pooran intervened with a kind gesture.
Seeing Avesh’s mother in tears, Pooran playfully asked, “Why are you crying?”
Avesh explained this to his mother, “Mummy, woh puch raha he, kyun ro rahi ho?”
Pooran then lovingly requested her, “Don’t cry. Nahi crying. Smile, smile, smile only.”
Pooran’s warm “Beta good, beta bhalo” further lightened the moment, symbolizing the unity and emotional bond within the LSG camp.
Later Avesh met his family as well, hugging his parents in a scene that blended pride, relief and affection.
