Punjab Kings, captained by Shreyas Iyer, is currently going through a very difficult phase. Punjab, which was in the race to become table-topper by winning 6 out of its first 7 matches at the beginning of the season, has suddenly derailed. The team has lost its last 5 consecutive matches and is now in danger of being out of the playoff race.
