Punjab Kings (PBKS), owned by a consortium including Ness Wadia, Mohit Burman, Preity Zinta and Karan Paul, have had an up-and-down start to the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024.
They began strong with a win over Delhi Capitals (DC) but then stumbled with defeats to Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) and Lucknow Super Giants (LSG). They bounced back with a thrilling victory against Gujarat Titans (GT), showcasing their potential. However, their inconsistency continued as they fell short against Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH), Rajasthan Royals (RR) and Mumbai Indians (MI) in a close encounter.
Currently, the Shikhar Dhawan-led team has occupied the ninth spot and will play GT tonight at home at 7:30 PM IST.
The team’s ongoing campaign has been quite turbulent but off the field, the franchise from the North seems to have a fluent outing on bagging renowned brands as sponsors. The Mohali-based cricket team has secured a strong roster of sponsors for the 2024 season.
