IPL 2023, the 16th edition of the Indian Premier League has now got a two and a half months window for the upcoming edition. That means, IPL 2023 will start in March and will end by June of that year. The International Cricket Council has agreed with BCCI to give a long window for the cash-rich league.

Coming back to the topic, the captain of the Punjab-based franchise was changed in IPL 2022 as it switched from KL Rahul to Mayank Agarwal as Rahul left the franchise earlier. However, the performance of the franchise was not well enough to say in the last 4-5 years. They have failed to reach the playoffs several times.

The last time Punjab reached the playoffs they played the finals against KKR under Bailey’s captaincy. However, they have yet to win a title in the cash-rich league.
