Openers: Prabhsimran Singh, Priyansh Arya
Prabhsimran Singh will be responsible for giving PBKS a solid start. However, he struggled in the last match, scoring just 5 runs. His opening partner, Priyansh Arya, had a dream IPL debut, smashing 47 off just 23 balls with seven fours and two sixes. PBKS will hope for another strong start from the youngster.
