Punjab Kings’ Coaching Shake-Up
According to Indian Express, Punjab Kings are considering appointing Wasim Jaffer as their head coach. Trevor Bayliss, who was signed for a two-year contract, has completed his tenure. During his time, the team did not reach the playoffs, finishing eighth and ninth in the competition. Dissatisfied with the results, Punjab Kings are looking to Jaffer, a familiar face, to lead the team.
Wasim Jaffer’s Previous Stints
Wasim Jaffer served as the coach of Punjab Kings from 2019 to 2021 and later as a batting consultant in 2023. He stepped down as head coach before the mega auction in 2021 but remained involved with the team. His experience with Punjab Kings and his success in Ranji cricket make him a strong candidate for the coaching position.

Under Jaffer’s guidance, the franchise aims to select a new generation of talented players and improve their performance. The upcoming season is crucial for Punjab Kings as they strive to move past recent disappointments and establish themselves as strong contenders in the IPL.
By bringing back Wasim Jaffer, Punjab Kings hope to leverage his expertise and familiarity with the team to create a winning strategy for IPL 2025.
