Following a defeat for Punjab Kings against Gujarat Titans by three wickets at home, the former Indian cricketer, Virender Sehwag, criticised Sam Curran, the Punjab Kings stand-in captain, for his lacklustre performances in the IPL 2024. The 45-year-old remarked that he wouldn't pick Sam Curran in his team, neither as a batting all-rounder nor as a bowling all-rounder.
