Punjab Kings claims to have star players in their team. But after their defeat against Delhi Capitals on Monday, Punjab’s team is on the verge of being knocked out of the race for the playoffs. There are many such reasons, due to which the performance of the team has not been of that level, on the basis of which the team can easily make it to the playoffs. Many believe that the head coach of the team, Anil Kumble, is one of the reasons for the team’s poor performance. Whenever players do not perform well, the captain and coach of the team have to answer, while they also get the most appreciation when the team performs well. This season of Punjab Kings captain Mayank Agarwal has also been very bad. But even coach Kumble is not untouched by criticism.

After the loss against Delhi, where the team’s batting unit is being criticized, fans are not shying away from taking a jibe at Kumble on social media. Fans are lashing out at Kumble for Punjab’s poor performance and are demanding his ouster from the team. One user wrote on Twitter, ‘Remove Kumble, save the team.’ At the same time, another user wrote that Punjab Kings should first remove Anil Kumble. Another user wrote that Kumble sir please resign or leave this franchise… can’t see you like this.
