Current form for Punjab Kings: L W L W L
Punjab Kings haven’t been consistent in the ongoing season and it has led to their downfall. Once again the team has failed to finish the matches like in the previous season. Furthermore, they have lacked the firepower in their middle-order, which has made it difficult for them to carry the impetus which has been provided by their openers.
