#ComedyGold: Best memes from CSK vs PBKS match

• CSK lost to Punjab Kings, marking their second straight defeat in IPL 2026.
• Punjab Kings now top the IPL points table with four points after two wins.
• PBKS players hold both the Orange and Purple Caps following a clinical victory.

Chennai Super Kings faced their second straight loss of the Indian Premier League 2026 after they faced a defeat against Punjab Kings in Match 7 of the ongoing

tournament at the M.A. Chidambaram Stadium, Chennai, on Friday, April 03. Punjab, meanwhile, now have four points on the board, courtesy of their back-to-back wins in the season.

A 210-run target set by the five-time champions was not enough, as PBKS continued to assert their dominance against the Chennai-based franchise, completing yet another clinical run chase.

Visiting captain Shreyas Iyer had won the toss and opted to take the field first. The decision eventually worked wonders, as the pitch opened up and became better to bat in the second half of what seemed like a one-sided encounter. Punjab's consistency and dominance across departments have now officially taken them to the top of the IPL 2026 Points Table.

Speaking of the most impactful performances, for CSK it was the attacking mindset of Ayush Mhatre (73 off 43) that did not dent the hosts' confidence despite the early departure of Sanju Samson. Sarfaraz Khan (32 off 12) and Shivam Dube (45 not-out off 27) also contributed nicely in the Ruturaj Gaikwad-led side posting 209-5 on the board in the first innings.

For PBKS, Vijaykumar Vyshak was the pick of the bowlers for his 2-38 in four overs, which also got him the Purple Cap. With the bat, openers Priyansh Arya and Prabhsimran Singh gave a thunderous start to the run chase. But skipper Shreyas Iyerwas the main orchestrator of the chase with his half-century. Cooper Connolly's 36 off 22 now means that both Orange and Purple Caps belong to PBKS players.

Meanwhile, the internet was abuzz with trolls responding to CSK's second consecutive loss, while a few also lauded Punjab in a hilarious manner for their brilliant win at Chepauk.
