Nicholas Pooran, one of the most destructive left-handed batters in T20 cricket, has been in sensational form in the ongoing IPL 2025. Known for his fearless hitting and rapid bat speed, Pooran has built a reputation as a match-winner, especially in the middle and death overs. After his brilliant IPL 2024 season—where he scored 499 runs at an average of 62.37 and a strike rate of 178.31—Lucknow Super Giants retained him for INR 16 crore ahead of IPL 2025.
In the current season, Pooran has continued his explosive form with 455 runs in 12 matches, maintaining a stunning average of 41.36 and a strike rate of 197.83, including four half-centuries. His top score remains 87 not out*, and he has already smashed 40 fours and 35 sixes, making him one of the most dangerous finishers this season.
