Punjab Kings (PBKS) unveiled their jersey for the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2022 season on Thursday.

With a typical combination of red and gold and a blended lion pattern in the middle, the kit looked almost the same as the previous season with only a few minor tweaks in the pattern.

PBKS revealed the kit via a short video posted on their official social media handles. It was matched by a caption in Punjabi, reading:

"Aa gaye ne assi, reveal karan layi saddi navi jersey! (We have arrived to reveal our new jersey!)"
Aa gaye ne assi, reveal karan layi saddi navi jersey! 😍

The initial fan reactions to the reveal were mixed. While some felt that, unlike other teams, continuity in jerseys was good, others weren't too happy with the similarities. Here are some of the top reactions to the Punjab Kings' post:

@PunjabKingsIPL When the effort put into making this video is more than to design the jersey! 😑😑😑
@PunjabKingsIPL Have to see this jersey with a microscope to find any diffrence from the last year's jersey🧐😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

@PunjabKingsIPL Koi inhe batao 2021 IPL khatam ho gaya 😭
@PunjabKingsIPL thank you for not changing much..we dont get connected if jerseys keep changing every year
@PunjabKingsIPL Jersey copied from RCB and logo from CSK 🤣🤣
@PunjabKingsIPL इसमें नया क्या है
@PunjabKingsIPL Navi jersey? This looks like the same as last year's 👀

The franchise underwent a major rebranding last season, changing its name from Kings XI Punjab to Punjab Kings and scrapping the red and white combination for red and gold. So, more glaring changes weren't expected this year anyway.

And while the jersey has remained more or less the same, the team sports an entirely new look for this season. Mayank Agarwal has replaced his good friend KL Rahul as captain after the latter's move to the new team Lucknow Super Giants.

The team has a much stronger bowling attack led by Kagiso Rabada and a more experienced batting lineup with Shikhar Dhawan, Liam Livingstone and Shahrukh Khan. Fans will want to believe that this is the Punjab Kings' best chance to clinch their maiden IPL trophy in a long, long time.
