Punjab Kings entered IPL 2026 as last year's finalists and exited the league stage in fifth place with 15 points, one short of the playoff cut.
Actor and Punjab Kings co-owner Preity Zinta has reacted to the 2026 season and the outcome of her team.
She took to her X account and wrote, “A big thank you to all the supporters of PBKS for standing strong with us all through the rollercoaster ride of IPL 2026. From the highs to the lows & everything in between…. felt more wholesome with all of your love. Till we meet again, all my love & best wishes.”
Rajasthan Royals joined Royal Challengers Bengaluru, Gujarat Titans and Sunrisers Hyderabad in the playoffs of IPL 2026 by beating Mumbai Indians at the Wankhede Stadium on Sunday to secure fourth place in the points table.
During that six-match losing streak, Shreyas’ sister, Shresta, was relentlessly trolled on social media over the viral “ditta ek point” clip.
