IPL 2025: 3 PBKS players to watch out for in the playoffs

With the win over Mumbai Indians, Punjab Kings have marched into the playoffs, securing a finish in the top two. They have been outstanding so far, and it has been a complete team effort from their end. Let’s take a look at three key players from this team in the playoffs.

Shreyas Iyer

Shreyas Iyer has amassed 514 runs at a remarkable average of 51.40 and a scorching strike rate of 171.90 across 14 innings this season, including five half-centuries. His attacking mentality is evident in his 31 sixes and 38 fours, which make him one of the campaign's most impressive players.

Iyer's form demonstrates his capacity to blend power with consistency, a quality that has been essential to his team's success. Iyer will be trying to take the lead and get his team over the finish line as Punjab prepares for the playoffs.

Arshdeep Singh

Arshdeep Singh is the most important bowler in the team’s bowling line-up, and with Marco Jansen going for national duty and doubts over Yuzvendra Chahal’s availability, the importance of Arshdeep in the playoffs is further going to increase.

From the 14 games he has played so far, he has taken away 18 wickets with an economy of 8.56 and an average of 23. He finds himself fifth in the list of bowlers with the most number of wickets so far this season and would be adding further to the tally in the playoffs.

Prabhsimran Singh

A vital member of the Punjab Kings' batting lineup is Prabhsimran Singh. The young batsman-wicket keeper has started aggressively in the top order and has played excellently in recent games. He can put a lot of pressure on the opposing bowling attack with his ability to score runs quickly in the powerplay overs. 

Prabhsimran, who has amassed 499 runs this season, including four half-centuries, wants to keep up his outstanding play in the playoffs. He is someone to watch because of his unafraid attitude toward pace and spin equally. He is going to prove himself worthy in the playoffs.
