Apart from Kumble, the team also did not renew the contracts of assistant coach Jonty Rhodes and bowling coach Damien Wright. Former South African batsman Rhodes joined Punjab ahead of the 2020 edition, while Wright joined the team in 2021. The team had not been able to make the play-offs for the last three seasons. In such a situation, the team management decided to leave them.
Punjab are looking to win their maiden IPL trophy under Trevor Bayliss, who championed Kolkata Knight Riders in 2012 and 2014. The team’s poor performance has continued since the start of the IPL in 2008. Punjab’s team has been sixth in the last four seasons. In the last season, Mayank Agarwal was the captain of the team, but he could not live up to the expectations with the bat. He and Arshdeep Singh are the only two players who were retained by Punjab ahead of the 2022 edition. Now it will be seen whether Mayank is made the captain this season also or not.
