Punjab are currently flying high in the ongoing edition of the Indian T20 League 2022. In 3 matches, they have managed to win 2 games and thus find themselves at number five on the points table. Liam Livingstone starred with the bat in the last game against Chennai. Riding on his 60-run knock in 32 balls, Punjab managed to score 180 runs in the first innings. Thanks to his brilliant knock, Punjab won the game by 54 runs.

Liam Livingstone is one of the most important overseas players in the side. Another overseas player, Odean Smith adds a lot more balance to the team. He hasn’t taken the world by storm but can wreak havoc with the bat on his day. He too is an important member in the team. Kagiso Radaba leads their pace attack. He is a mainstay in the team, while the fourth overseas player, B Rajapaksa has shown great form in the tournament thus far.

In the first three games, Punjab played Livingstone, Smith, Rabada, and Rajapaksa as their four overseas players in the playing XI. However, the arrival of Jonny Bairstow has left Punjab in a selection dilemma. Jonny Bairstow is currently one of the best batsmen in the shortest format in modern-day cricket. However, with all their current four overseas players in good form, it will be tough to see how Punjab accommodates Jonny Bairstow in the playing XI.

Meanwhile, in a bid to highlight Punjab’s selection dilemma, former Indian cricketer Wasim Jaffer has shared a hilarious clip from Hera Pheri’s movie. The club perfectly depicts Punjab’s current situation. The video didn’t take a lot of time to get viral as fans loved it to the core. Here’s the Tweet.

Nevertheless, Punjab’s fourth match against Gujarat has begun and Punjab has decided to add Jonny Bairstow to the playing XI at the expense of B Rajapaksa.
