Preity Zinta was at the helm of things for the fourteenth year in a row, but this time with a changed name on the jersey. The ‘Punjab Kings’ had plenty of money in their purse but couldn’t really manage the high-profile picks in IPL 2021 auction. They were lucky to get the No. 1 ranked ICC T20I batsman in Dawid Malan for just Rs 1.5 crores but weren’t at their best for the rest of the day. PBKS have got three X-factor foreigners like Jhye Richardson, Moises Henriques and Fabian Allen along with four domestic Indian players.
