Priyansh Arya was bought by Punjab Kings for 3.8 crores in the IPL auction, during which everyone’s eyes were on this player.

Headlines by hitting six sixes in an over

There was a competition between Delhi Capitals, Punjab Kings and Royal Challengers Bangalore to buy Priyansh Arya in the auction of players for IPL 2025. Finally, Baji went to Punjab Kings. He spent Rs 3.80 crore for him.

Priyansh Arya first came into the limelight by hitting six sixes in an over. He hit six sixes in an over in an over, playing for South Delhi Superstar in the inaugural season of Delhi Premier League.

South Delhi Superstars scored 308 for 5 wickets in 20 overs against North Delhi Strikers and Arya contributed 120 runs in 50 balls. This was the match in which he hit six sixes in an over to left -handed spinner Manan Bhardwaj. All sixes of Arya came in front. Overall, he scored 608 runs in this league, a strike rate of 198.69 and an average of 67.56. In those ten innings, he hit 43 sixes.

Connection with Gautam Gambhir

Arya’s parents are teachers in a government school in Delhi and have trained inside Gautam Gambhir’s former coach Sanjay Bhardwaj. Arya wrote his name in this academy at the age of 9-10 years.

Arya of an interview to ESPNcricinfo said, “I have spent hours, watching players like Gautam Gambhir, Nitish Rana and Unmukt Chand, training.” “Sir, we used to ask us to see them from behind the net. It was thrilling for us all playing closely.”

Starts innings with Jaiswal

Had Kismet supported Priyansh Arya, the batsman would have seen opening with Yashasvi Jaiswal in the 2020 Under-19 World Cup. But the BCCI rules considered them disqualified despite fulfilling age criteria.

According to the report, Arya said about being out of the Under-19 World Cup, “When a selector (Amit Bhandari, former India fast bowler) asked me if I am in the Under-16, I told them that I am not qualified and competing for the under-19. I was scoring runs in the under-19 trial games, so I was convinced.”

Arya further said, “At that time, I was not aware of the rules under which if you have not conducted an age test in the under-16, you will be eligible to play under-19 only for two years. By the time I was 17 years old, I had played under-19 by the time I was 17 years old.”

That decision dropped Arya from the Under-19 World Cup. It took him three more years to make a place in the senior team of Delhi and his career could not move forward by 2024-25.

Put a century before IPL auction

Arya made a sensation by hitting a century before the IPL auction. He scored a century in front of veteran bowlers like Bhuvneshwar Kumar and Piyush Chawla in the 2024-25 Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy. This century came just before the auction. Syed Mushtaq Ali was the highest run -scorer of Delhi in the Trophy, he scored 325 runs in nine innings at a strike rate of 176.63.
