New Delhi: Good news has come out for Punjab Kings (PBKS), which started with a landslide victory in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2022 season. England's star wicketkeeper-batsman Jonny Bairstow has joined the Punjab team. The Punjab franchise has given this news by sharing the picture on social media.
The next match of Punjab Kings is to be against Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR). This match will be played on 1st April at Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai. It is difficult for Bairstow to play in this match because he will have to remain quarantined. However, he may remain available for selection in the third match, which will take place on April 3 from Chennai Super Kings (CSK). PBKS shared a photo of Jonny Bairstow. In this, this English player is seen entering the team's camp carrying the bag. With this post, PBKS has written in the caption that the Lion Squad (Punjab Team) is feeling happy seeing his Johnny.
The 32-year-old Jonny Bairstow was bought by the Punjab franchise in a mega auction. For this Preity Zinta's team, PBKS had bid Rs 6.75 crore. However, even after being bought in the IPL auction, this player could not join the team. The reason for this was that he was on the West Indies tour, where he played a Test series for England. As soon as the series is over, he has directly joined PBKS by reaching Mumbai.
