Before Punjab Kings (PBKS) and Chennai Super Kings (CSK) play in the IPL 2024, Aakash Chopra said ArshdeÂep Singh did not do very well. The two teams will compete in CheÂnnai on May 1.
PBKS has six points from nine games and is eighth. TheÂy may need to win all five gameÂs left to make the playoffs.
In a YouTube video, Aakash Chopra identified Arshdeep as the Punjab Kings bowler to keep an eye on in Wednesday’s encounter.
Arshdeep is PBKS’ equal second-highest wicket-taker in IPL 2024, alongside Sam Curran and trailing only Harshal Patel (14). However, the Indian left-arm seamer has been pricey, giving 9.63 runs per over. He would aim to improve his performance ahead of the T20 World Cup.
“My first player to watch out for is Jonny Bairstow” – Aakash Chopra on PBKS batters in focus
Aakash Chopra picked Jonny Bairstow as the first Punjab Kings player to look at against the Chennai SupeÂr Kings.
The well-known analyst is especially excited to see Shashank Singh continue his impressive run with the bat.
Shashank Singh is the leading run-scorer for PBKS in IPL 2024, with 263 runs at a strike rate of 182.63 in nine innings. The middle-order batsman hit an unbeaten 68 off 28 deliveries in his team’s record 262-run chase against the Kolkata Knight Riders.
