In the defeats that have come hitting hard one after the other, Punjab’s strengths have unravelled. The lack of a stable middle-order, skipper Shreyas Iyer’s indifferent run when faced with the early departures of the openers, and a fluctuating bowling cohort have all contributed to Punjab’s downfall.
But in Lucknow, Iyer & Co. run into a team that has lacked colour and character all through the season. Two points will be a matter of survival for Punjab, still relying on tomorrow’s results for qualification. For Rishabh Pant and his men, a win will be about wiping the slate clean after a gruelling summer.
