India, March 22 -- Among the eight teams that have been a part of every Indian Premier League season since its inception in 2008, only two have never won the title - The Royal challengers Bengaluru and Punjab Kings. While RCB have reached the final thrice, PBKS have only reached the summit clash once. Legendary Australia cricketer Adam Gilchrist said there is a reason for the franchise's below-par show in the IPL.

Gilchrist, who led the franchise between 2011 and 2013, said the management during his time was "erratic" and they acted as a "handbrake" towards the team's progress. Gilchrist was bought in the auction ahead of the 2011 season by Punjab Kings, then known as the Kings XI Punjab.
