Preity Zinta, Punjab Kings co-owner hails PBKS Skipper Shreyas Iyer “captain fantastic”
Notedly, Shreyas Iyer has led the Mohali-based franchise by example as PBKS have qualified for the IPL playoffs for the first time in eleven years.
Preity Zinta voiced that they are lucky that they have Shreyas Iyer,” Preity Zinta told the broadcasters after Punjab Kings’ thumping seven-wicket win over Mumbai Indians in Jaipur on Tuesday.
She went on to add that he has been a fantastic captain and is a great leader. And Ricky Ponting as a coach, their combination has worked wonders.
Punjab Kings will play their first qualifier at the New PCA Stadium in Mullanpur, and a win will cement their place in the final.
Preity expressed her happiness to have played in Mullanpur. Things changed but never complained.
The Punjab Kings co-owner is equally enjoying the team’s roller-coaster journey this season.
Adding Ifs and buts could be forgotten.
The team wants to win for their fans as their fanbase has always supported them. They have supported us for many years; it will be for all the Punjab Kings fans.
When coaxed about the things that didn’t go in Punjab Kings’ favor, Preity said: “The only thing I can say is we have no control over what happens on the ground. We can only choose the right team. You can always have good players and a good team. The captain who is leading the team is setting an example. There is a synergy between the captain and the coach. That’s really what changes the dynamic of the team.
