During an IPL 2025 match between Punjab Kings and Gujarat Titans at the Narendra Modi Stadium, Australian all-rounder Glenn Maxwell was dismissed for a golden duck, marking his 19th duck in IPL history. This unfortunate milestone surpasses the previous record jointly held by Rohit Sharma and Dinesh Karthik, who each had 18 ducks.
Batting at No. 5, Maxwell faced R Sai Kishore and attempted a reverse sweep on his first delivery. However, he missed the shot and was given out LBW. Surprisingly, Maxwell chose not to review the decision, despite replays later showing that the ball would have missed the stumps.
Despite Maxwell’s early exit, Punjab Kings managed to post a strong total of 243/5, led by Shreyas Iyer’s unbeaten 97 off 42 balls. Gujarat Titans fought back but fell short, scoring 232/5 and losing the match by 11 runs.
This game also marked the beginning of Ricky Ponting’s tenure as Punjab Kings’ head coach, starting his campaign with a victory.
