Punjab Kings (PBKS) have announced Mitchell Owen, the uncapped all-rounder from Australia, as the replacement for Glenn Maxwell. Notably, Maxwell has been ruled out of the IPL 2025 owing to a fracture to one his fingers, and has subsequently flown back to Australia. Now, the Tasmanian cricketer Owen has been roped in by the Punjab-based franchise as a part of their squad for the remainder of the season.
Owen has been granted a remuneration of INR 3 crore for joining the forces with the 2014 finalists. Interestingly, the cricketer is eligible to join the squad only after ending his ongoing PSL 2025 campaign, where he is representing Babar Azam-led Peshawar Zalmi. The league in the neighbouring country, that ends on May 18, will have Owen stay back unless Peshawar fail to qualify. In such a situation, Owen will be playing for PBKS only if they make it to the top four of IPL 2025.
