Punjab Kings (PBKS) secured its first IPL playoffs spot in 11 years and clinched a top-two finish.
Yet, for head coach Ricky Ponting, the team has “achieved nothing yet” with the “big games” still ahead. PBKS’s clinical win over Mumbai Indians (MI) in Jaipur lifted it to the top of the table, giving it two shots at reaching the final. It will now face RCB in Qualifier 1.
Here’s Punjab’s record in IPL playoffs.
