KL-Rahul
Punjab Kings endured a dismal outing in the 1st leg of the 14th edition of the IPL. PBKS managed to win only 3 out of 8 matches in the 1st leg of IPL 2021. The Punjab franchise will want to sell its underperforming players and keep the best players for the next IPL season. Here is a list of 4 players whom PBKS might retain the upcoming IPL 2022 mega auction:
KL Rahul
At no 1 in this list is PBKS opener KL Rahul. Rahul is undoubtedly Punjab’s most important player in the IPL. KL Rahul was the highest run-getter in the 13th edition of the IPL. Rahul also batted superbly in the 1st leg of IPL 2021, amassing 331 runs in total. The Punjab franchise will be keen on retaining KL Rahul for the IPL next season.
Mayank Agarwal
