Best friends reunite as Rahul's Super Giants face off against Agarwal's Punjab Kings:
For how long do you trust a high-risk process if it doesn't produce high rewards? Punjab Kings face that question as IPL 2022 moves into the second half.
Even before they got up from the auction table in February, it was clear how they would approach the season: Go hard or go home. But with four wins and four losses after eight matches, they are currently in the bottom half of the table.
In the last couple of games, they made tweaks to their XI and approach to find the optimum point where they can operate. Against Delhi Capitals, they picked five frontline bowlers but were bundled out for 115. In their next game, against Chennai Super Kings, despite going back to an allrounder at No. 7, their batters didn't unleash an all-out attack. They teed off but not recklessly - to use a phrase used by the late Shane Warne - and posted a match-winning 187 for 4. Kings' batting consultant Julian Wood has also talked about being "aggressively smart". So is this the approach we will see from them in the upcoming matches?
