It has been a breakthrough season at the top of the order for the left-handed 24-year old Delhi boy, Priyansh Arya, who has been catching the attention of everyone with his opening partner in another uncapped player Prabhsimran Singh. The pair together have been the second-best opening partnership in the season behind only Gill-Sudharshan from GT but the fact that both these are young and fearless uncapped batters makes their pair even more special. Once again, in Match 58 against Delhi Capitals at the picturesque HPCA stadium in Dharamsala, Priyansh and Prabhsimran have provided PBKS with an excellent start after their skipper Shreyas Iyer won the toss and chose to bat first. Amongst the numerous stupendous shots played during the partnership, Priyansh Arya's short-arm jab over square leg off DC pacer Dushmantha Chameera stood out and was one of the shots of the night.
