PBKS have been dominant in the IPL 2026 edition, as they currently top the points table and have managed to earn 13 points in the season with six wins and just one match washed out by rain.
During his last game at a stadium, a six by Priyansh Arya hit an elderly fan in the crowd. The fan, named here as Krishna Chand ji, suffered head injuries after being hit by the ball.

After the accident, he left the place with a bloodied face, which quickly went viral on social media. The cricketer also claimed that he would meet her if he goes back to New Chandigarh.

Preity Zinta invites fans to attend next home match in Dharamshala
PBKS team owner Preity Zinta has always been known as one of the most interactive owners in IPL history. She has been a part of PBKS since the inaugural season and has always won hearts with her relationship with the players on and off the field and the way she connects with the fans.
Along with star batsman Priyansh Arya, team owner Preity Zinta joined the video conference and invited fans to attend their next home match in Dharamshala. He showed complete concern for the fans and his gesture will be greatly appreciated.
Their next game is against Delhi Capitals at the Himachal Pradesh Cricket Association Stadium in Dharamshala, which will be played on May 11, and the PBKS side has welcomed fans at their new home venue.
After their first loss of the season, PBKS need to maintain the winning streak against GT
After all, losing their first match of the season, that too on their home ground, must have been a huge blow to the morale of Punjab Kings, as at one point the players looked invincible.
However, this season’s best team needs to bounce back and they will get their chance against Gujarat Titans. However, the hurdle remains that GT has won its recent matches on home soil and maintained dominance, especially with the ball.
Nevertheless Narendra Modi Stadium is a high-scoring ground and it will be in favor of Kings if their batsmen get it well with the bat. They will be quick to make necessary changes in their bowling deck.
