Punjab Kings (PBKS) IPL 2023: Punjab Kings, whose old Kings XI Punjab were also there. The franchise has changed its name, but the fortunes of the team have not changed yet. Punjab has qualified for the play-offs only once in IPL history. In the 2014 IPL, Punjab reached the final for the first time, but the team failed to win the trophy. The Kolkata Knight Riders lifted the trophy by defeating Punjab Kings by 3 wickets in the 2014 IPL final match.

You will be surprised to know that after the 2014 IPL, the Punjab Kings have not won more than seven matches out of 14 league matches. But this season, Preity Zinta, the owner of the team, has strengthened the team even more by buying England all-rounder Sam Curran from the mini-auction for 18.50 crores.

Even before the start of the IPL, the Punjabi Kings got a big shock: their opener batsman Jonny Bairstow has been ruled out of the 2023 IPL due to injury. Matthew Short has been added to the team as his replacement. Punjab Kings will play their first match of this season against Kolkata Knight Riders in Mohali.
