He has placed himself at number six.
Punjab Kings (PBKS) star Shashank Singh has shared what the team’s playing XI might look like for the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025. PBKS will be led by Shreyas Iyer this season.
The team has a good mix of experienced and young players and will look to have a strong campaign.
Speaking to Shubhankar Mishra on his YouTube channel, Shashank said that Australian wicketkeeper-batter Josh Inglis is likely to open the innings with Prabhsimran Singh. Inglis is known for his aggressive batting and can give Punjab a quick start in the powerplay.
At number three, skipper Shreyas will play an important role in holding the innings together. Marcus Stoinis is set to bat at number four, followed by Glenn Maxwell at number five. Both can score quickly and bowl if needed.

The bowling line-up includes Harpreet Brar, Arshdeep Singh, and Yuzvendra Chahal.
Chahal adds a lot of experience to the bowling attack and is known as one of the best spinners in the IPL.
Shashank also added that Yash Thakur and Kuldeep Sen are two options as impact substitutes. Both are fast bowlers and can strengthen the team’s bowling when needed.
With this team combination, Punjab Kings look well-balanced and ready for IPL 2025.
