Talking about KL Rahul’s injury during the first half of the IPL season, Chopra said that it didn’t help the Punjab Kings’ cause.
KL Rahul underwent surgery for acute appendicitis on May 3, and Mayank Agarwal captained the side in Rahul’s absence. Chopra added:
KL Rahul is the highest run-scorer for the Punjab Kings in IPL 2021, with 331 runs. Mayank Agarwal is next on the list with 270. Mohammed Shami has taken a team-high eight wickets to his name in the IPL this season.
Punjab Kings will resume their IPL 2021 campaign against Rajasthan Royals on September 21 in Dubai.
