In a thrilling display of cricket, Preity Zinta’s Punjab Kings have emerged victorious, prompting a congratulatory tweet from Bollywood superstar Salman Khan. The tweet, which read, “Well done Zinta, Congratulations Zinta, Team is playing well…. @realpreityzinta,” highlights the camaraderie between the two stars and the excitement surrounding the team’s performance in IPL 2026.
Punjab Kings are currently riding high in the tournament, sitting in second place on the points table, boasting three wins and one no-result match. Their latest triumph came on April 11, 2026, when they defeated Sunrisers Hyderabad by six wickets, showcasing their dominance in the league.
In that match, Shreyas Iyer shone brightly, scoring an unbeaten 69 runs, leading his team to chase down a target of 220 runs. This victory not only solidifies their position in the tournament but also rekindles memories of Khan’s iconic tweet from 2014, “Zinta’s team won kya?” which became a viral meme during that IPL season.
Salman Khan’s recent tweet is seen as a nostalgic nod to that moment, marking 12 years since the original tweet. Fans have reacted positively, celebrating the throwback and the ongoing success of the Punjab Kings. The relationship between Khan and Zinta, forged through their collaborations in films like “Har Dil Jo Pyar Karega” and “Jaan-E-Mann,” adds a personal touch to the sporting event.
The Punjab Kings’ undefeated streak and their impressive performances have set the stage for an exciting IPL season. As they continue to build momentum, the question on everyone’s lips remains: can they maintain this winning streak?
With the tournament still unfolding, cricket enthusiasts are eager to see how the Punjab Kings will fare in their upcoming matches. The excitement surrounding the team is palpable, and fans are hopeful for more memorable moments ahead.
Details remain unconfirmed regarding the team’s strategies and player conditions as they prepare for their next challenge. However, one thing is certain: the Punjab Kings are a force to be reckoned with in IPL 2026.
