It was pretty much impossible to bowl Arya in the game against NDS, as he came out all guns blazing at everything. The range of shots and immaculate hitting by the southpaw that whenever a spin dropped it shot, he was quick to smack it out of the ground.
Who is Priyansh Arya?
Arya, who has previously played for India ‘A’ U-19s in a quadrangular series back in 2019 alongside players like Yashasvi Jaiswal and Ravi Bishnoi, is now steadily making his way to the big stage. It would be fair to say that we might see him in the IPL 2025 auction.
Having already made a name for himself in DPL 2024 with two centuries, Priyansh Arya first scored an unbeaten 107 runs off 55 balls against Purani Delhi 6. He has now added another impressive century, which included six sixes. Priyansh is currently the poster boy of DPL.
