Punjab Kings, the runner-up of IPL 2025, are all set to take the field in the next edition of the tournament, having filled the gaps that they needed to during the auction. This article provides information about the full squad of Punjab Kings after the IPL 2026 Auction.
Punjab Kings have retained the likes of Shreyas Iyer, Yuzvendra Chahal, India's highest wicket taker in T20I cricket, Arshdeep Singh, and young opening batter Priyansh Arya.
Key Players For Punjab Kings in IPL 2026
Shreyas Iyer
Shreyas Iyer will look to lead from the front, being the captain of the side like he did last season, and would hope to get support from other batters as well.
Shreyas, who is known for his ability to play spin, will be entrusted to keep the spinners under pressure and make things easy for the batters to come at the backend of the innings, both while batting first and while chasing.
Priyansh Arya
Priyansh Arya, who was one of the youngsters who scored a century last season, continued his run of form while playing in local leagues as well, and would want to continue from where he left off in 2025.
Priyansh would be backed by the captain and the coach to play in his natural aggressive manner in the first six overs and get the team off to a good start while batting in the top order and provide a platform for other batters to capitalize on.
Arshdeep Singh
Arshdeep Singh, who is going through a purple patch in white-ball cricket, will look to prolong it come the next season of the IPL.
Arshdeep will be entrusted to pick wickets in the first six overs and in the final five overs, being the senior bowler in the squad.
If Arshdeep is able to find his rhythm early in the first half of the tournament, it will help the team to restrict the opposition to a chasable score on a consistent basis, given the experience that Punjab Kings have in their bowling attack.
Yuzvendra Chahal
Senior Indian spinner Yuzvendra Chahal will treat the upcoming IPL season as an opportunity to get back into the national team, having not been a part of it in any of the two white-ball formats for quite a while.
Chahal's performance in the middle order will decide the Punjab Kings' fate in the 19th edition of the league.
Performance of Punjab Kings in IPL
Punjab Kings broke the string of failed attempts of qualifying for the playoffs in the previous season and would want to go a step forward in the next edition, having fallen short of lifting their first IPL trophy after a loss against the Royal Challengers Bengaluru.
