All they need is a good leader.
If Mayank can do well in that position Punjab has it in them to make the finals or go all the way since 2014.

The amazing thing about the 2025 Punjab team being that they didn't have super star power. Take away Shreyas Iyer, Stoinis, Chahal and Inglis- you actually don't have many stars. To an extent, the 4 mentioned above are strong players, but haven't attained stardom, bar Iyer, perhaps on account of his DC and KKR exploits.
Punjab played well, but have a few areas where they can improve next year:
1. A good middle order batsman- Indian or foreign or both. This person needs to be slightly experienced. We saw that Nehal and Shashank got bogged down a bit.If this guy is a hard hitter, the better for them- Kane Williamson or Steve Smith in the dugout might fit the role well. In terms of hard hitters, can't think of any at the moment, but if a certain Ben Stokes were to be available next year, they should go for him or Sikander Raza, who was with them for the past 2 years, but failed to make a mark.
2. A supporting strong bowler. Jamieson isnt exactly the man you want running in on Indian tracks. Some one like Mark Wood would complement Arshdeep nicely.
