Arshdeep Singh’s performance for PBKS in IPL 2025
Arshdeep, known for his blistering bowling, has been a key performer for PBKS this season. Playing 15 games, he has taken a total of 18 wickets with an impressive economy rate of around 8. His accurate line and length, combined with well-executed variations in the death overs, make him one of the best T20 bowlers in the world. Arshdeep has been the backbone of Punjab’s bowling attack and a crucial reason behind the team’s successful run this season. His consistent performances have earned praise from fans and experts alike.
However, Qualifier 1 proved to be a night to forget for PBKS, who are still chasing their maiden title. Batting first, Punjab scored for a mere 101 runs, leaving fans and experts visibly frustrated with the poor shot selection from the batters. In reply, RCB chased it down in 10 overs with 8 wickets in hand. The humiliating defeat of the table toppers came in front of their home crowd in Mullanpur, making the loss even harder to swallow.
