From the latest IPL News the famous Bollywood Actress and the co-owner of franchise Punjab Kings (PKBS) Preity Zinta, denied all the rumors about star Opener Batsman Rohit Sharma joining the Punjab team as a captain.
Rohit Sharma Skipper of Mumbai Indians has won the title of IPL five times, He has led the team for more than 10 years and emerged as a successful captain in IPL history.
Preity Zinta Rejects the IPL news or appears that be posting articles that Zinta is offering Rohit Sharam a captaincy spot in the Punjab team. Preity Zinta says all this news is “baseless” and “fake” as she never made such commitments with Mumbai Indian Skipper.
Bollywood Actress replied about this matter on Twitter (X) and wrote that these agencies are great examples of spreading fake news. Preity Zinta Added:
#Fakenews! All these articles are completely fake & baseless. I hold Rohit Sharma in very high regard & am a big fan of his, but I have NEVER DISCUSSED him in any interview nor made this STATEMENT! I also have a lot of respect for Shikhar Dhawan & his being currently injured, makes these articles appear in very poor taste,” Zinta posted on X.
“These articles are a perfect example of how misinformation is picked up without any verification & circulated online. I humbly request all Media to refrain from circulating this & embarrassing all concerned parties All I want to say is that we have a great team currently & our only focus is to win games & make the most out of #IPL2024 Thank you. @PunjabKingsIPL.”
Remember, after the Kings lost to Rajasthan Royals (RR) on April 13, Zinta allegedly expressed her desire to have Sharma as her franchise’s skipper.
“I will bet my life to get Rohit Sharma if he comes in the mega auction. We are only missing a captain in our team who brings on some stability and champion mindset,” the Bollywood actor allegedly said.
