Earlier, Shikhar Dhawan was injured and is currently out of some matches. But he doesn't get hurt and Preeti Zinda tries to pull him aside alive. Rumors started spreading of Punjab trying to make Rohit Sharma the captain. In this matter, Preity Zinda published her rebuttal on her page on X site saying, “Fake news! All the news regarding this has no basis. I respect Rohit Sharma a lot. I am his fan. I have never talked about Rohit Sharma in any interview or anywhere in this regard.

Besides, I also respect Shikhar Dhawan a lot. It is not right to spread such rumors when he is injured. This is an example of how news can be distorted in online media. No one checks that it is correct. Therefore, I request all media not to publish such religion-shaming news. Right now our team is a great team. Our goal is to win. Thank you,” posted Preeti Zinda. It is noteworthy that Punjab Kings are at 9th position with 4 points in 7 matches so far.
