This was Malan’s first match for Punjab Kings as well as his debut in IPL. Him alongside, Mayank Agarwal, who was named as the newest captain for the Punjab Kings side after KL Rahul’s untamed injury blow, steered the shaky PBKS innings and for the 3rd Wicket partnership, they added 52 runs at all crucial times.
Praying for KL Rahul’s health and speedy recovery 🙏❤️#SaddaPunjab #PunjabKings #IPL2021 pic.twitter.com/q81OtUz297

England’s Dawid Malan was waiting in the den of PBKS for a very long time, and tonight he got picked up in place of an out of form Nicholas Pooran, who has scored 4 ducks in 7 matches. Dawid Malan also happens to be the ICC’s No. 1 ranked T20I batsman and tonight, IPL got the glimpse of this English Left-hander.
