New Delhi [India], April 26 (ANI): Actor and co-owner of the Punjab Kings team, Preity Zinta, is on cloud nine, and her joy is clearly justified as the Shreyas Iyer-squad has been on a winning streak in the ongoing IPL 2026 season.
On Saturday, Punjab Kings players registered their sixth consecutive win. They pulled off the highest successful run chase in T20 cricket history, defeating Delhi Capitals (DC) at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in New Delhi. Punjab chase down the record 265 target with seven balls left.
Preity, who witnessed the thrilling match live from the stands, celebrated her team's victory in a religious way. A few hours after the culmination of the match, the 'Dil Se..' actress paid a sacred visit to Pracheen Hanuman Mandir in Delhi.
Several visuals surfaced online in which Preity could be seen offering prayers at the temple.
Notably, right after the match, Preity took to her Instagram and gave a shout out to her team Punjab Kings over their stupendous efforts. She also hailed Delhi Capital's KL Rahul's record-breaking knock of 152 from 67 balls.
'Yessss yesss yesss !!!!
