In fact, Cricket legend Sunil Gavaskar lashed out at the Punjab Kings (PBKS) for not learning from their past mistakes and rehashing them.
The former India captain came down intensely on the KL Rahul-led unit for losing their match against the Rajasthan Royals (RR). Punjab required 10 runs off 15 balls at one stage with eight wickets in hand.
“Punjab once again made a mess of a chase and lost a match they should have won. Despite all talk of learning from past mistakes, the same errors of last year in UAE were repeated to give Rajasthan a win that three overs earlier looked highly unlikely,” said Sunil Gavaskar
Sunil Gavaskar emphasized the significance of organizations, tossing light on how it gets to be the duty of the other player to carry on batting after losing his settled partner.
“It’s important even in this ultra-short format of the game that after a good partnership, the batter, who is at the crease after his partner gets out, has to ensure that he carries on batting without taking too many chances, even as the new batter at the crease settles in. Punjab, last year, got great starts as they did in the game against Rajasthan, but then when the opening partnership was broken, the other partner got out fast,” Sunil Gavaskar added.
KL Rahul
In KL Rahul and Mayank Agarwal, the PBKS have two of the foremost effective openers. Be that as it may, all four of their century opening stands since IPL 2020 have brought about losses as they find small support from the middle-order.
