The Punjab franchise released Mayank Agarwal, the player who led the team in the previous edition of the Indian T20 League. The right-handed batter will now enter the auction and has all it takes to trigger the bidding war.
With the ability to lead a side and also capitalize on the powerplay as an opener, Agarwal could well be a perfect buy for a franchise that is hoping to rope in an Indian opener from the Indian T20 League 2023 mini-auction.
