Delhi’s explosive batsman Priyansh Arya is in the news these days, recently in NDTV’s Knuckleball show, Priyansh drew a picture of his “ideal batsman” and the surprising thing was that it did not even include the name of the God of Cricket Sachin Tendulkar.

Let’s know how Priyansh created his perfect batsman and will he be able to make it to the Indian team in Asia Cup 2025?
Priyansh chose the special qualities of different cricketers for his dream batsman. First of all, he chose Yuvraj Singh for power-hitting.
Priyansh said, “For power-hitting, I’d pick Yuvraj Singh.”
After this, he chose Virat Kohli’s technique and temperament, “Virat Kohli for technique and temperament.” Kohli’s cool mind and perfect technique are a must.
Now a little twist, Priyansh chose Rohit Sharma for off-side play, “Rohit Sharma for off-side play.”
Although Rohit is considered the king of pull shots and short balls, Priyansh liked his off-side game more.
Then, for the leg-side, he picked VVS Laxman, “VVS Laxman for leg-side play.” And finally, he picked Suryakumar Yadav for innovation, “Suryakumar Yadav for innovative shots.” Surya’s 360-degree shots are really game-changers.
Priyansh’s entry in Asia Cup?
Dynamite batsman Priyansh showed amazing performance for Punjab Kings in IPL 2025. This left-hander, bought for 3.8 crores, scored 475 runs in 17 matches, that too with a strike rate of 179.25.
His first IPL century and 8 catches surprised everyone. Now the question is, will the selectors bet on Priyansh for Asia Cup 2025?
After the Asia Cup, there is a Test series against the West Indies, so it is possible that senior players may be given rest. In such a situation, Priyansh can fit as a backup for players like Abhishek Sharma and Sanju Samson.
Will Priyansh become the next star?
In domestic cricket too, Priyansh’s bat is spitting fire. His pairing with Prabhsimran Singh created a stir for Punjab Kings.
If he continues to perform like this, then his entry into the Indian team is just a matter of time.
