IPL franchise Punjab Kings has made yet another change in their captain by appointing left-handed fly-half Shikhar Dhawan as the new team captain to replace Mayank Aggarwal.

After KL Rahul was sold to the new name Lucknow Super Giants, Mayank Agarwal was named as the captain of IPL 2022. Punjab Kings retained Agarwal and Arshdeep Singh for this year and made other team changes including buying Shikhar Dhawan for INR 8.25 crore. Dhawan was in his usual good form during the IPL 2022 but the team could not perform well and finished the league position at 6th in the table.

Dhawan has a win record of 75% as captain in 8 ODIs and 33.33% in 3 T20Is. Dhawan has also been named captain for the upcoming 3-match series against New Zealand. Can Shikhar Dhawan give Punjab Kings their first IPL trophy? CHECK HERE The big question is how effective this Royals move will be in helping them win their first IPL title. Dhawan doesn't have a good record as a captain in the IPL, but Kings can be made to turn things around this season. Punjab Kings have made good changes this year bringing in strong players like Liam Livingstone, Bhanuka Rajapaksa, Odean Smith, Kagiso Rabada, Jonny Bairstow. With such power, it seems like a suitable team, but they need a strong leader who can use those things in the right way. Shikhar Dhawan is an experienced player and understands the game very well. It also attracts celebrities on the international circuit. Being on top, the Kings will hope to do better than last time. It will be a big challenge for Shikhar Dhawan in charge of an IPL team and things may be different this time for him as a captain with all his recent experience as the captain of the Indian team.
