Nicholas Pooran throws his pad at the dressing room glass after Abdul Samad gets bowled on the second-last delivery.
In the final over, two run-outs and a missed boundary attempt hurt LSG badly, adding to the team's tension and pressure.
Pooran, furious after the dismissal, flung his pad in anger. The viral video reflects the intense emotion of the moment.
Pooran smashed 45 from 26 balls, starting the final over with a six but couldn’t finish strong in the last few deliveries.
Abdul Samad failed to connect with a fuller ball from Nitish Reddy and was bowled, adding to the batting collapse.
LSG only managed 205/7 despite a strong start. Shardul Thakur hit a four but was also run out, worsening the situation.
LSG’s seventh loss in 12 games ended their playoff hopes. They now sit seventh and face GT and RCB in their last two matches.
