"or recommendations for our new team. I would love to know who you wanna see in the red jersey this year. Bring it on folks… I'm all ears #iplauction #throwback," she added.

Punjab Kings will enter into the mega auction with a purse of Rs 72 crore.

The franchise had retained only Mayank Agarwal (Rs 12 crore) and Arshdeep Singh (Rs 4 crore) ahead of the upcoming event in Bengaluru.
