Punjab Kings (PBKs) left many amazing with his team selection for the game against Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) at the Premier League India (IPL) 2025. This was because Marcus Stoinis did not participate in the game in the Maharaja Yadavindra Singh International Stadium in Mullanpur.

This was because Glenn Maxwell has been a toilet in the IPL since last season. The whole, has accumulated only 93 runs at 14 entries. The whisk has an average of only 6.64 to go with 5 ducks. While, meanwhile, Marcus Stoinis played a magical hand in the last game.

But I’m a little shocked because the runs do not come from Maxwell: Simon Doull to Marcus Stoinis dropped

With Stoinis who dropped from Punjab Kings XI, he left the experts. Speaking with Cricbuzz, KKR’s former director Joy Bhattachajya said they replaced the wrong guy. He said, “They got the wrong guy.”

Simon Doull, who was part of the same panel, was impacted by Stoinis who fell and Glenn Maxwell was there. Speaking of the same, he added:

“Are you injured? Shreyas Iyer said something that Stoinus was injured? If he is not injured, this is amazing. What did he get at the end of the last game, Stoinis? He broke about 30, did he do it in the end?

“Unless they think, I mean, how many left -handers are there in this line of kolkata? Maxwell can play a role with Kock, Narine there, Venkatesh Iyer in the middle order and Rinku at 6 or 7. So they may think that Maxwell has to play a little paper. Maybe this is the reason. But I’m a little surprised because the races do not come from Maxwell.”

They must have deliberate much about the team: Pommie Mbangwa to Marcus Stoinis

The former Zimbabwe cricketter, Pommie Mbangwa, who was in the comment box: He said:

“Must have deliberate a lot about the team. It seems that the decision was made here on the ground. Stoinis has its gloves and beat there. He is only receiving the bad news. Horrical news. It is difficult to let anyone go.”
