Former India opener Aakash Chopra does not want the Punjab Kings to go after a captain in the upcoming ten-franchise auction of the Indian Premier League (IPL 2022). He has backed Mayank Agarwal to lead the team in this year's cash-rich league.Speaking on his YouTube channel, Chopra suggested that the team management must build a team with Agarwal.He mentioned that if a captain does not have players of his choice in the squad, then it becomes challenging for him to lead them. Chopra said:"Punjab Kings don't need to buy a captain at the auction. They must appoint Mayank Agarwal as their captain right away and build the team with him. It becomes difficult for a skipper to lead if he is not given a team of his choice."Punjab Kings@PunjabKingsIPL𝑺𝒆𝒆𝒏𝒆 𝒎𝒆𝒊𝒏 𝒆𝒌 𝒔𝒒𝒖𝒂𝒅 𝒃𝒂𝒏𝒂𝒏𝒆 𝒌𝒊 𝒉𝒂𝒊, 𝒕𝒐𝒉 𝒛𝒊𝒏𝒅𝒂 𝒉𝒐 𝒕𝒖𝒎! #SaddaPunjab #IPLAuction #PunjabKings6:28 AM · Feb 10, 202225610𝑺𝒆𝒆𝒏𝒆 𝒎𝒆𝒊𝒏 𝒆𝒌 😍 𝒔𝒒𝒖𝒂𝒅 𝒃𝒂𝒏𝒂𝒏𝒆 𝒌𝒊 🔥 𝒉𝒂𝒊, 𝒕𝒐𝒉 𝒛𝒊𝒏𝒅𝒂 𝒉𝒐 𝒕𝒖𝒎! #SaddaPunjab #IPLAuction #PunjabKings https://t.co/cfX3ltQwwMThe Punjab-based franchise has retained just two players ahead of the IPL 2022 auction.
