In an explosive start, Priyansh Arya has set the tone for Punjab Kings with a fiery 40 off just 15 balls, striking four boundaries and three sixes, pushing the team to 54/3 in 5 overs. However, the Kings suffered early setbacks as Prabhsimran Singh, Shreyas Iyer, and Marcus Stoinis fell cheaply. Khaleel Ahmed struck twice, dismissing Iyer and Stoinis, while Mukesh Choudhary got rid of Prabhsimran. The bowling duo, despite being expensive, managed crucial breakthroughs with ERs of 11.00 and 10.50 respectively. With a deep batting lineup still to come, Punjab will look to build on Arya’s aggressive foundation.
