MatchesArshdeep Singh has grown into one of the most reliable left-arm seamers in India’s white-ball setup and a cornerstone of Punjab Kings’ bowling attack. Hailing from Punjab, he first entered the TATA IPL in 2019 when he was signed for INR 20 Lakh, and steadily worked his way into a frontline role.\r\nHis breakthrough season came in 2021, when he picked up 18 wickets at an average of 19, showcasing his ability to deliver across phases. What sets Arshdeep apart is his versatility. He can swing the new ball both ways, surprise batters with a sharp bouncer, and execute yorkers with precision at the death. Since 2022, he has not missed a single game for Punjab Kings, underlining both his consistency and fitness.\r\nPunjab reaffirmed their faith in him at the IPL 2025 auction, using the Right to Match card to bring him back for INR 18 Crore. He responded with his best season yet, claiming 21 wickets, the most he has taken in a single IPL edition.\r\nOn the international stage, Arshdeep has also made history, becoming the fastest pacer to reach 100 T20I wickets in terms of both matches played and balls bowled. He remains central to Punjab Kings’ quest for their maiden IPL title in the 2026 season as their strike bowler.
