The New Indian Express Shivamogga
|April 22, 2025
FORMER India spinner and national selector, Venkatapathy Raju, echoed Punjab Kings head coach Ricky Ponting's thoughts and insisted that adaptation is the key for the success in T20s. Punjab Kings lost to Royal Challengers Bengaluru after managing to post a sub-par total on Sunday afternoon.
