IPL 2022: Wasim Jaffer's Hilarious Meme On Punjab Kings' Selection Headache

Punjab Kings (PBKS) seem to have a problem of plenty with a selection dilemma on their hands in this season's Indian Premier League (IPL). The abundance of in-form overseas players is a good problem to have for skipper Mayank Agarwal, who has so far, marshalled his side with positive intent. The results are there to see, two wins out of the three matches played, bodes well for PBKS but the selection headache of picking four overseas players seems a bit tricky with the kind of options available. Kagiso Rabada is a world-class pacer and puts a strong case for himself to be selected while Sri Lanka's Bhanuka Rajapaksa has been in tremendous form with the bat and provides the much-needed impetus at the top of the order. Englishman Liam Livingstone and Odean Smith have already proved their worth and will be hard to ignore. And with Jonny Bairstow available for selection, Mayank could have a long day at work while sorting out the team combination.

IPL 2022, PBKS vs GT: Punjab Kings look to shed tag of inconsistency against impressive Gujarat Titans

Punjab Kings and Gujarat Titans will look to stretch their run of luck when the two sides lock horns at the Brabourne Stadium on Friday. For Punjab, the only worry over the years has been consistency, and the trend continues in the 15th season. Having opened their campaign with a thumping five-wicket win over RCB, they surrendered meekly to KKR, but recovered quickly with a commanding 54-run victory over CSK. Gujarat, on the other hand, are yet to taste defeat. The Hardik Pandya-led outfit opened their campaign with handsome wins over Lucknow and Delhi Capitals. Going into Friday's contest, both sides have more or less found a core. Punjab did get desired results while opting for the lesser-known pair of Jitesh Sharma and Vaibhav Arora against CSK, before Englishman Liam Livingstone's all-round brilliance overshadowed their contributions.

In a recent video posted by CSK on social media, the Kiwi cricketer showcased his pull shot technique and compared it to Brian Lara's. After playing the shot during training, he also exclaimed, "we see Lara!"
