Punjab Kings will reportedly miss the services of England batter Jonny Bairstow for the entirety of IPL 2023. Bairstow has been out of action since August last year after dislocating his ankle and breaking his leg during a freak accident while playing golf.
Bairstow subsequently underwent surgery in London later that year that saw him miss England’s T20 World Cup winning campaign and subsequent tours to Pakistan, South Africa, New Zealand and Bangladesh.
