IPL 2025- This player is ready to replace Shikhar Dhawan, has won the trophy for this team

While Pakistan's full focus is on the ICC Champions Trophy to be held next year, Indian cricket fans and players from around the world are focused on the IPL 2025 mega auction to be held in December. As the mega auction approaches, the excitement is increasing. While the teams are intensifying their preparations, an important news has come from the Punjab Kings camp, who have appointed Ricky Ponting as their new head coach. Punjab Kings want to infuse new life into their team and improve their performance.

Punjab Kings recently appointed Ricky Ponting as the head coach, to leverage his strategic insights and experience to boost the team's prospects.

Ponting could bring in opener David Warner, who could replace Punjab's current opener and captain Shikhar Dhawan, who would bring valuable leadership experience, including a championship win with Sunrisers Hyderabad in 2016.

Punjab Kings have struggled in recent years, last qualifying for the playoffs in 2014. With a new coaching approach, they are keen to rebuild their roster and improve their competitive edge.

While speculation has been rife about Warner's potential move to Punjab, it ultimately depends on Delhi Capitals' retention strategy. The upcoming retention rules for IPL 2025, which are expected to allow teams to keep five players, will be crucial in determining Warner's future.
