[Watch] Virender Sehwag Trolls PBKS on Air During IPL 2024 Game vs RCB

Former Indian opener Virender Sehwag recently mocked the Punjab Kings (PBKS), claiming that his game decreased during his Indian Premier League (IPL) time with the team.

Virender Sehwag spent two seasons with the Punjab side before retiring in 2015. He also served as the team’s mentor from 2016 to 2018.

While delivering Hindi commentary for the present IPL 2024, the former India opener discussed how his strike rate plummeted during his time with PBKS. Trolling the franchise for not winning enough matches, Virender Sehwag was recorded stating on Star Sports:

Virende­r Sehwag played for Punjab in 2014. 2014 was Punjab’s best IPL se­ason ever. George­ Bailey, an Australian, led Punjab that year. Punjab re­ached the final but lost to Kolkata Knight Riders. The­ loss was close: KKR won by three wicke­ts.

RCB Secures Four-Wicket Victory over PBKS in IPL 2024 Match at Chinnaswamy Stadium

This season, Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) and Punjab Kings have had different starts. Bengaluru lost their first match to the Chennai Super Kings (CKS), while Punjab defeated the Delhi Capitals (DC).

On Monday, March 25, the RCB and PBKS faced off at the M. Chinnaswamy Stadium. Punjab finished on 176/6 in 20 overs after being asked to bat first. Shikhar Dhawan, PBKS’ skipper, led the team in scoring with 45 runs. Jitesh Sharma (27) and Shashank Singh (21*) made vital contributions in the back end, guiding their team to a good total.

RCB’s Mohammed Siraj and Glenn Maxwell each took two wickets, while Yash Dayal and Alzarri Joseph each took one.

Usually, Virat Kohli’s were the highlight in that run chase thanks to his 77 runs, too. Despite that crisis of Bengaluru in the death overs, Dinesh Karthik wielded his wood with his heroic unbeaten knock of 28 in just 10 balls and gifted his team a win by four wickets.
