‘I don’t want to be a one-season wonder’: Punjab Kings’ Shashank Singh

Shashank Singh got his IPL contract due to a goof-up. There was drama during the 2024 auction, leaving many under the impression that Punjab Kings didn’t want him. During the season, he scored 354 runs at a strike rate of 164.65. In IPL 2025, PBKS retained him, he’s become one of the mainstays for the franchise and Shreyas Iyer’s deputy.
