Punjab Kings (PBKS) co-owner Preity Zinta applauded as Rilee Rossouw smashed a six to get to his fifty against Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) in IPL 2024. That reaction came as Rossouw got to his fifty in 21 balls in Dharamsala on Thursday, May 9.
The milestone came in the eighth over of PBKS' innings. Cameron Green bowled a full-length ball and Rossouw stood tall to thump it over the bowler's head for a maximum. The left-hander also smashed a four off the previous ball. Following the six, Zinta looked super delighted and clapped in appreciation.
