Prabhsimran Singh and Priyansh Arya have formed one of the best opening pairs of the IPL 2026 with their ultra-aggressive batting style in the powerplay. Prabhsimran has scored 346 runs at a strike rate of 179, whereas Arya has scored 283 runs at a stunning strike rate of 250. Cooper Connolly provides a much-needed balance to the batting order and has been terrific for them so far.

Captain Shreyas Iyer is leading this batting line-up from the front, scoring 309 runs in just seven innings. He has been their mainstay in the middle-overs, especially against the spinners. Suryansh Shedge adds value to this line-up with his all-round presence and can be a handy batter for the side.
<a href="https://www.crictracker.com/cricket-players/nehal-wadhera/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Nehal Wadhera</a> continues to be backed by PBKS management despite mixed form. Marcus Stoinis finally delivered with the bat, scoring a stunning half century in their last match. Marco Jansen can finish the game well with the bat and will be an asset with the ball too. 
<h3>Bowlers:&nbsp;Lockie Ferguson, Arshdeep Singh, Yuzvendra Chahal, Vijaykumar Vyshak</h3>

New Zealand pacer<a href="https://www.crictracker.com/cricket-players/lockie-ferguson/" target="_blank" rel="noopener"> Lockie Ferguson</a> will continue to headline this bowling attack, despite his lacklustre outing against RR in their last match. Arshdeep Singh remains a threat with the new ball and is slowly finding his rhythm back. Yuzvendra Chahal will lead the spin department and has been successful in picking up wickets for his side in the middle overs. Vyshak adds depth to this attack with his presence.
