Punjab Kings (PBKS) batsman Nicholas Pooran called the suspension of the IPL 2021 and the reasons behind it heartbreaking in his latest Twitter post. IPL 2021 was postponed on May 4 after players in multiple franchises tested positive for COVID-19.

Pooran also attached a picture in which he can be seen getting clean bowled by Varun Chakravarthy in a clash against Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR). The picture mentioned his performance in the IPL 2021.

The Caribbean batsman said he will come back strong after managing only 28 runs in 7 matches of the season. He was dismissed on a duck four times in the IPL 2021.

"To help the fight against #COVID19 in India, #PBKS has pledged to provide oxygen concentrators with the help of @roundtableindia! We also request everyone to join in and help in whatever way possible because together, we can!", he had posted on April 30.
