Overall, PBKS have surrendered totals of 200 or more 46 times in men\u2019s T20 cricket\u2014more than any other side in the format\u2019s history. Royal Challengers Bengaluru sit second on the same list with 40 such outings, while Delhi Capitals are next with 35.<\/p>\n<p>The latest thrashing also took Punjab to a further unwanted marker. In IPL 2026 specifically, they have let opponents post 200-plus on nine occasions, again the most by any team in a single men\u2019s T20 competition.<\/p>\n<h2>Shreyas Iyer\u2019s captaincy record and the batting response from RCB<\/h2>\n<p>For Shreyas Iyer, the match became even more painful statistically. He now leads the record for the most 200-plus totals conceded by a captain in men\u2019s T20 cricket, with 31 such instances. He is ahead of former RCB skipper Faf du Plessis, who has 29, while MS Dhoni follows with 28. The list also includes Babar Azam with 21 and Rishabh Pant with 20.<\/p>\n<p>Punjab\u2019s bowlers struggled to manage an opposition batting lineup on a batting-friendly surface once again. Virat Kohli set the tone with a measured 58 from 37 balls, establishing a platform for RCB. Devdutt Padikkal then added pace to the chase, striking 45 off just 25 deliveries during an aggressive second-wicket stand.<\/p>\n<p>Momentum, however, swung decisively when Venkatesh Iyer took control. The left-handed batter struck an unbeaten 73 off 40 balls, attacking both pace and spin with ease. As Punjab\u2019s attack lost its grip, Tim David compounded the damage with a late surge\u2014hitting 28 from 12 balls in the death overs.<\/p>\n<h2>Pressure situation in IPL 2026<\/h2>\n<p>With the playoffs still within reach, Punjab Kings needed the result badly to keep their campaign alive. Instead, yet another expensive bowling showing not only left them short of the win, but also piled additional unwanted records onto an increasingly challenging season.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Punjab Kings skipper Shreyas Iyer endured yet another night of unpleasant T20 milestones as his team were hammered for 222 against Royal
