Top Order
For the top order, Punjab Kings will have two young Indian openers: Prabhsimran Singh, who performed well for Punjab in this season, and Priyansh Arya, who is coming straight from a stellar performance in the Delhi Premier League and is continuing that form in the IPL too. For the third position, the team will have captain Shreyas Iyer, who is also in the red-hot form, scoring back-to-back half-centuries.
Middle Order
Punjab will have Nehal Wadheera, Shashank Singh, and Glenn Maxwell in the middle order. In a few recent matches, Nehal Wadheera performed well, while Glenn Maxwell continues to struggle with the bat this season. For the lower middle-order, the team will have Marcus Stoinis and Marco Jenson. Stoinis, in the last match against SRH, hit four consecutive sixes, changing the dynamics in the last over.
Bowlers
Punjab's bowling attack will be led by two overseas fast bowlers, Xavier Barlett and Marco Jenson, in the pace department, along with the star Indian pacer Arshdeep Singh. In the spin department, the team will have Yuzvendra Chahal and Glenn Maxwell.
