IPL 2024: Preity Zinta Gave A Perfect Reply To Fans Who Trolled Shashank Singh

Preity Zinta Gave A Perfect Reply To Fans Who Trolled Shashank Singh: Shashank Singh, whose IPL 2024 auction selection by the Punjab Kings sparked controversy, stepped up when his team needed him the most, guiding them to a memorable victory against Gujarat Titans on Thursday. In the chase of 200 runs, Shashank emerged as the top scorer for PBKS, reaching his fifty in just 25 balls and remaining unbeaten till the end to secure the win.

At the IPL 2024 auction, Punjab Kings co-owners Preity Zinta and Ness Wadia appeared confused after winning the bid for uncapped Indian player Shashank Singh, sparking controversy. It seemed the franchise didn’t intend to bid for him, but the gavel had already fallen. Despite the confusion, PBKS proceeded with the purchase and welcomed Shashank Singh to their team. Now, Preity Zinta has addressed the controversy.

Yes, Bollywood actress and co-owner of Punjab Kings, Preity Zinta took to Instagram on Friday to share a selfie with Shashank Singh, the star player of her team Punjab Kings (PBKS), after Thursday’s match. In her post, she addressed the remarks made on Shashank Singh, who was accidentally picked up by the Indian Premier League (IPL) franchise and bought for ₹20 lakh.

In the photo, Preity stood on the field dressed in black, flashing the victory sign. Shashank, sporting his uniform, smiled and gave a thumbs-up sign.

Sharing the photo, Preity wrote, “Today seems like the perfect day to finally talk about things that were said in the past about us at the auction. A lot of people in similar situations would have lost confidence, buckled under pressure or become de-motivated ……. but not Shashank! He is not like a lot of people. He is truly special.”

She added: “Not just because of his skill as a player but because of his positive attitude & incredible spirit. He took all the comments, jokes and brickbats so sportingly & never became a victim. He backed himself and showed us what he is made of, and for that I applaud him (clapping hands emojis). He has my admiration & my respect.”

“I hope he can be an example to all of you when life takes a different turn & does not play according to script, for it’s not what people think of you that matters, but what You think of Yourself ! So never stop believing in yourself like Shashank & I’m sure you will be Man of the match in the game of life (star eyes emoji) #Respect #Manofthematch #TrueGrit #TataIPL #GTvsPBKS #Saddapunjab #PunjabKings #PBKS #ting (red heart emoji),” she concluded.
