Bosonic condensation and lasing of exciton-polaritons in microcavities is a fascinating solid-state phenomenon. Here, we study the photon statistics via the second-order temporal coherence of polariton lasing emerging from an optical microcavity integrated with an atomically thin MoSe2 crystal. In our experiments, we observe distinct polariton dispersions and characteristic features of bosonic lasing. With the utility of Hanbury Brown and Twiss (HBT) setup, we investigate macroscopic polariton phase transition for varying excitation powers and temperatures. The lower-polariton exhibits photon bunching below the threshold, implying a dominant thermal distribution of the emission, while above the threshold, the second-order correlation transits towards unity, which evidences the formation of a coherent state. Our findings are in agreement with a microscopic numerical model based on the Lindblad master equation, which explicitly includes scattering with phonons on the quantum level.
