Two finals and no trophy: that is the short version of the Punjab Kings IPL records. Over 278 outings, Apr 2008 through May 2026, the franchise (called Kings XI Punjab until 2020) has 126 wins against 145 defeats, plus 4 ties and 3 no results.
In decided games that is a 46.5 win percentage. Every season is listed below, along with each head to head, who leads the batting and bowling, and the extremes of team scoring.
Punjab Kings Season by Season: Two Finals in 19 Years
Punjab Kings have played all 19 seasons since 2008. 2014 stands out: 12 victories against 5 losses across 17 matches, ending in the final. They reached the final again in 2025, winning 10 of 18 games. Both times they finished as runners-up, so the title count is still zero. See who beat them on the list of IPL winners.
The lean years are just as clear. In 2015 they won only 2 of 14, and in 2010 only 3 of 14. Most other seasons hover around the middle, with 6 to 8 wins.
The 2026 season swung hard. Punjab won three in a row in April 2026, including 265/4 to beat Delhi Capitals on 25 Apr 2026. They then lost six straight, before a 7-wicket win over Lucknow Super Giants in Lucknow on 23 May 2026, ending with 7 wins, 6 defeats and 1 tie or no result.

Best and Worst Head to Head Records
Against the older sides, Punjab Kings are close to level with most and clearly behind two. They are 16 and 16 with Chennai Super Kings, 17 and 18 against Mumbai Indians (see MI vs PBKS) and 18 and 17 against Delhi Capitals (see DC vs PBKS), the one long rivalry where they lead.
The worst record is against Sunrisers Hyderabad, who have beaten them 18 times in 26 meetings, with only 8 going Punjab’s way, as the SRH vs PBKS page shows. Kolkata Knight Riders (13 and 21) and Rajasthan Royals (12 and 18) have also had the better of them. Against the two newer teams it is brighter: 5 wins and 3 defeats against Lucknow Super Giants, and 4 and 4 against the Gujarat franchise.
PBKS Batting and Bowling Leaders
KL Rahul sits top of the club’s run list: 2,548 runs, 55 innings, average 56.62, 2 hundreds, 23 fifties. He also owns the top score, 132* against RCB in Dubai on 24 Sep 2020, and two more club bests: 110 sixes, 10 match awards. Shaun Marsh is a close second on 2,477 runs and 9 awards.
Arshdeep Singh is the only bowler past 100 wickets for the club, with 111 in 95 games. Piyush Chawla has 84 and Sandeep Sharma 73 at the best average of the top three, 23.84. The best figures are AS Rajpoot’s 5/14 against SRH in 2018.
Big hitting has grown in recent years. Prabhsimran Singh has 94 sixes, Priyansh Arya strikes at 192.99, and six of the eight biggest totals came in 2024 to 2026. The top two, 265/4 and 262/2, were both chases finished with overs to spare. The lowest is 73 all out against Rising Pune Supergiant in 2017. The Mullanpur ground hosted 254/7 in 2026.
