To add to that, his resume for the IPL 2025 also holds two fifties and a record-breaking century to make his case stronger. It is no doubt that the franchise will want to keep him in their ranks, considering the explosive batting displays he had to offer last season. Arya is making sure that he stays in the limelight with some fiery knocks.
With the trade windows approaching their business end, it is evident that franchises are starting to look for the best combinations they can have. The Punjab Kings are pretty sorted at the top of the order with Priyansh Arya and Prabhsimran Singh handling the mantle at the top. The No.3 spot was regularly taken up by Josh Inglis last season, who was explosive in his approach. But with the new season at the horizon, the franchise will have to define their approach for 2026.
