IPL franchise Punjab Kings landed in trouble when they got engaged in a social media controversy with their comments for India men's hockey team captain Harmanpreet Singh. PBKS started the season by calling their captain Shreyas Iyer with the nickname 'Sarpanch'. Meanwhile, famous commentator Sunil Taneja has been using the nickname 'Sarpanch' for Harmanpreet since he took over captaincy of India. This made fans accuse PBKS social media team of plagiarism. In response, PBKS admin shared a post with the caption ‘Aap apna sarpanch rakhiye hum humara rakh lete hai’ (You keep your sarpanch, let us keep ours). Fans were irked by them dissociating with the Indian Hockey captain who is also a Punjab local and called PBKS out on social media. IPL 2025: Punjab Kings Pacer Kuldeep Sen Backs Shreyas Iyer As Strong Captaincy Contender for India Cricket Team, Says ‘He Is a Calm Leader Who Empowers Bowlers’.
