Delhi: Punjab Kings opener Priyansh Arya scored a brilliant century against Chennai Super Kings in Mullanpur, Chandigarh in the 22nd match of 2025 IPL. Even in this difficult situation, where the wickets were falling continuously, he continued to bat aggressively and completed his century by hitting a four in style. This was his first 50+ score in IPL cricket.
From Delhi Premier League to IPL
Arya made his identity in the Delhi Premier League, where he hit six sixes in an over. This performance made him headlines at the national level and attracted the attention of Talent Scouts. However, on big platforms like IPL, the same feat against experienced bowlers like Ravichandran Ashwin and Mathisha Pathirana was a completely different challenge.

Way of accurate batting
On his debut in the IPL, Priyansh performed aggressive but accurate batting. Despite the wicket falling at the other end, he maintained his aggressive style and never gave the bowlers a chance to stop. His half-century was an example of confidence and good understanding of time, when he hit a high six against Ashwin on mid-off.
Comparison with Virender Sehwag
Priyansh Arya’s batting style is being compared to former Indian cricketer Virender Sehwag. His coaches often compare his batting to Sehwag, who used to remain fearless and aggressive despite being under pressure. This comparison became even stronger when Arya showed the same qualities in his IPL debut innings, which were in Sehwag’s batting.
