The Punjab Kings, captained by Shreyas Iyer, are included in the Top 4 and also a strong contender to make a place in the playoffs. Punjab, captained by Shreyas Iyer, has won 5 in 9 matches while 3 have lost. The last match had to be satisfied with 1 point due to the cancellation of rain due to rain. Of course Punjab is going well but the former Indian cricketer who has played for this team has said that if the team goes like this, it will not win the title.

Former Indian cricketer Manoj Tiwari wrote on his X (Twitter) that Punjab Kings cannot win the title like this even if they remain in the top 2. He has also targeted Punjab Kings coach Ricky Ponting and has criticized some of his decisions.

What did Manoj Tiwari write

Manoj Tiwari wrote, “It seems that Punjab Kings will not win the IPL Trophy this season because today I saw that when Punjab was batting, coach (Ricky Ponting) did not send the inforous batsmen Nehal Vadhera and Shashank Singh up, but he did not trust foreign players but he could not do well. He could not do well. He will also stay away from the title after making a place. “

My gut feeling says that Punjab Team will not be able to win the #IPL Trophy this season beCause what i saw today when they were batting

Maxwell flop once again

Priyansh Arya (69) and Prabhasiraman Singh (83) gave Punjab Kings a great start, both added 120 runs for the first wicket. After falling the first wicket in the 12th over, Prabhasimran was out in the 15th over, after which Maxwell was dismissed for 7 runs in 8 balls. After this, Marco Jansen returned to the pavilion after scoring 3 runs in 7 balls. Of course Punjab scored 201, but the way the team started, the team was able to score 20 runs.
