IPL 2022 : Punjab Kings Announces their Captain

Kings XI Punjab or known as Punjab Kings has been an instrumental part of Indian Premier League. Punjab was decent in the first few seasons. Punjab made it to the playoffs under Yuvraj Singh in the first season.

 

Punjab's best season came in 2014 under George Bailey where Glen Maxwell and David Miller single handedly took them into IPL finals. Unfortunately for them they lost the finals to KKR that year.  Since then, Punjab has been on a downfall. They kept finishing in the bottom half of the table. In 2018 Mega Auction Punjab went all clean, they retained only 2 players for the auction. They build a decent team for themselves. They got Ashwin and Kl Rahul, 2 big stars of Indian cricket.

But again, lucky was not the Punjab side, they performed badly that season and eventually captain Ashwin had fallen out with management and he was traded to the Delhi team. KL Rahul was made captain then, under Rahul Punjab performed in bits and pieces. Sometimes they played exceptionally well while sometimes they played terribly.

 

Now again for IPL 2022 mega auction followed the strategy of 2018 and went all clean only retaining 2 players. Their Captain Kl Rahul left them on some payment issue and Punjab retained Mayank Agarwal his deputy and Arsdeep Singh young left arm pacer. On the auction table Punjab performed brilliantly, they have got a good all-round squad.


Now with Squad and all set, Punjab Kings needed a captain and they had a lot of options after getting their full squad. Top candidates were Shikhar Dhawan and Mayank Agarwal and English International Jonny Bairstow.

 

Now with all the speculation, Punjab Kings decided to announce their captain and now Punjab Kings have announced Mayank Agarwal as their captain for IPL 2022 season.
