punjab kings They have been a dominant force in IPL 2026, remaining unbeaten in their six matches of the season. And a big factor in their explosive start has been the opening pair of Prabhsimran Singh and Priyansh Arya. This pair has scored 211 runs in five innings. Prabhasimran has played as an accumulator, batted for long periods and scored at a strike rate of 171.54. Priyash has been at the forefront by scoring runs at a tremendous strike rate of 248.23.
captain of punjab king Shreyas Iyer Talked about how his role is to instill confidence in young batsmen and their abilities. He gives them the freedom to go out and play freely, and also gives them room to make mistakes. This is a strategy that has brought success to kings so far.
“Whenever I talk to them, my only message is, just be yourself. Don't try to emulate, copy or be anyone else. When you are playing at this level, and you are fearless and flamboyant in your own way, you don't need to look like or copy anyone. When you tell these guys that both Prabhasimran and Priyansh Arya are match-winners, it gives them confidence,” he said while speaking on JioStar.
The Mumbai-born cricketer also said that the team is making efforts to unite as a group. He talked about the team room of PBKS and how they try to spend time there as a team, which helps them understand each other better.
“They can just go out there and play freely. They're performing well for us and hopefully they'll continue to do that. We have a team room, probably for every team. We try to spend a lot of time together in that team room, before and after games, and whenever we have off days. We come together and build that bond,” the PBKS captain said.
Punjab Kings will look to extend their unbeaten start to the 2026 season and extend their dominance at the top of the table when they take on Delhi Capitals at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in New Delhi on Saturday, April 25.
