“Punjab Kings is a more evolved brand name, and we understand it was a right time for us to move focus on the core brand itself. The change in brand identity is not about changing our brand ethos but celebrating our one-ness as we stand in



unit like a family.


“The new logo honors the liveliness and vibrancy of the brand and provides modern elements, while we stand out from rest of the teams,” CEO of the franchise Satish Menon said at an event.
