“Zinta’s Team Won Kya?”: Salman Khan’s Tweet Goes Viral After PBKS Storm Into IPL 2025 Final

June 2, 2025: Bollywood superstar Salman Khan’s decade-old tweet resurfaced and went viral on social media following Punjab Kings’ (PBKS) thrilling five-wicket win over Mumbai Indians (MI) in the IPL 2025 Qualifier 2. The victory, led by a sensational unbeaten knock from captain Shreyas Iyer, secured PBKS a spot in the final against Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB).

The viral tweet — “Zinta’s team won kya?” — originally posted by Khan years ago, has become a fan-favorite meme once again after co-owner Preity Zinta’s team stormed into the final. Fans flooded social media with nostalgic references and humorous edits, bringing the old tweet back into the spotlight.

Punjab Kings replied to the post.

In a rain-affected match at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad, Iyer delivered a captain’s knock, scoring 87* off just 41 balls. His explosive innings included five boundaries and eight sixes, finishing the game with a mighty six that sealed PBKS’s second-ever IPL final appearance — the first since 2014.

“I love such big occasions,” said Iyer during the post-match presentation. “I always remind myself and my teammates that the bigger the occasion, the calmer you should be to achieve great results.”

With just one day of recovery, PBKS will now face RCB in the IPL 2025 final at the same venue on Tuesday. As the cricketing world awaits the showdown, Salman’s revived tweet continues to trend, reminding fans of the enduring connection between cricket, cinema, and the power of social media.
