LSG vs PBKS: Why is Prabhsimran Singh Not Playing Today’s IPL 2023 Match?
Once again it is Prabhsimran Singh has been benched among the Impact players option. The right-hand batter hailing from Punjab has scored a 50 already in this tournament, however, in the next two games the batter was dismissed for a duck. With Shikhar Dhawan unavailable due to an injury, it is expected for Prabhsimran Singh to come as an Impact player and open the innings for Punjab Kings. Here’s what PBKS’ stand-in skipper Sam Curran said at the toss,
“We’ll bowl first. Something we haven’t done all season. Shikhar picked up an injury last game, don’t know how bad it is but hopefully he won’t be out long. His absence is huge, we’ve got two Indian batters coming in and Raza is back in the XI. The conditions looks good.”
