Mohammed Shami is a vital cog in the wheel of Punjab Kings' bowling attack. The right arm speedster not only bowls with the new ball but is also given the responsibility of bowling a few overs at the death. He is the most experienced domestic pacer in the team and is a go-to option for the captain whenever he finds the team in a spot of bother. Despite his enormous skills as a seam bowler, seems like Shami is learning on different skills. In a short video going viral on internet, the fast bowler can be seen bowling off-spin at the nets ahead of the match against Kolkata Knight Riders on Monday.

2 wins, 3 defeats for PBKS in IPL 2021

The KL Rahul-led side hasn't got off to a real great start in IPL 2021. In the 5 matches played so far, they have tasted victory in two matches but have experienced defeats in the other three. However, the positive for Punjab would be that they came back to winning track, stitching a convincing win over five-time champions Mumbai Indians in their last encounter. They would like to continue their form against KKR who are themselves struggling to get going and have just one win in 5 matches.
