New Delhi:
Sri Lankan skipper Kumar Sangakkara said he was unaware of any powershift in the Kings XI captaincy and the team would benefit more with an Indian captain, when asked about a change in guard at the top in the IPL franchise team Punjab King's XI, who have decided to replace Yuvraj Singh with him, as reported by a TV channel.
"I am hearing it for the first time. I have not heard anything about this. I will be going to Mohali in a few days' time and if anything like this is there I will hear it. I feel an IPL franchise will benefit with an Indian as captain. It's a great franchise to play for," he declared.
