Punjab Kings have been handed over their fourth consecutive defeat this season. After losing to Delhi Capitals, the team has been dropped to the fourth spot in the standings. This also lowers their chances of reaching the playoffs, as CSK and RR remain in race.

Twitter Explodes After Punjab Kings Fourth Consecutive Loss.

Punjab Kings had their first game at the iconic Dharamshala Stadium but it turned out to be an outing the team would like to forget. While their batters were able to do the job well, the bowlers again remained an issue for Punjab Kings, as the match ended in yet another defeat for them.

The match started with Punjab Kings batting first, as Prabhsimran Singh and Priyansh Arya gave a cracking start. After Prabhsimran lost his wicket, Shreyas Iyer and Cooper Connolly handled the things well for the team. Suryansh Shedge gave a late finish, which helped Punjab Kings to post 210 runs for the loss of 5 wickets.

Their bowling unit started well, putting Delhi Capitals at the score of 33/3 in the chase. But Axar Patel and David Miller changed the game towards Delhi's favour. Eventually, Ashutosh Sharma and Madhav Tiwari went on to finish the game, which was eventually done by Auqib Nabi Dar. Punjab Kings have suffered their fourth consecutive defeat this season now.

Here's how Twitter has reacted to the same.

Ye Kis Line Me Aa Gaye?

At the start of the season, Punjab Kings wanted to finish at the top spot. But now they are finding themselves at the number four position.

Downfall Reason

The main reason why the downfall started for them was when they posted 49/1 as a scorecard on 28 April. RCB fans think that this was a way to taunt their team, and now it is paying off.

Bowling Woes

Punjab Kings are definitely doing well with their batting line-up posting 200+ runs consistently. But their bowling line-up overscores them, not with the bat obviously.
