Who Is Priyansh Arya? Viral Sensation’s Latest Move Sets Social Media Abuzz
• Hot Trendy News
New Delhi, 26 May 2025 — Twenty-four-year-old Priyansh Arya has catapulted from Delhi club cricket prodigy to one of IPL 2025’s most searched names after belting a 43-ball 102 against Chennai Super Kings earlier this month. The uncapped left-hand opener, now anchoring Punjab Kings’ playoff push, owns a tournament strike-rate of 210.66—third-best this season—and has cleared the ropes 11 times despite playing barely half the matches of most rivals.
Powered by six sixes in an over during the 2024 Delhi Premier League and a Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy run-fest where he topped Delhi’s charts, Arya commanded a ₹3.8 crore IPL contract at February’s auction. Head coach Ricky Ponting and skipper Shreyas Iyer have since handed the youngster a “play-all-14” guarantee, freeing him to pursue his see-ball-hit-ball mantra. “An attacking batter always looks ugly when he gets out,” Arya laughed after the century. “If the ball is in my zone, it must go.”
The fearless approach has yielded the joint-fourth-fastest hundred in IPL history, put Arya in the thick of the Emerging Player race and generated comparisons with Delhi mentor Gautam Gambhir, who dubbed him a “younger brother.” Standing 5-foot-10, Arya has spent the past year sharpening cuts and pulls with long-time coach Sanjay Bharadwaj to counter the league’s hard-length barrage.
Consistency now separates hype from national contention. Since the ton, Arya’s last three knocks read 6, 18 and 47, leaving Punjab Kings, currently third on the table, reliant on his power-play explosiveness in tonight’s crunch fixture against Mumbai Indians. Selectors, meanwhile, are monitoring whether the Delhi dasher can translate his 360-degree hitting into sustained run-scoring ahead of India’s T20I tour of Zimbabwe in July.
Key stats
• 210.66 strike-rate (3rd in IPL 2025)
• 103: highest IPL score, joint-4th fastest century overall
• 3.8 crore auction price (from ₹50,000 club deal in 2022)
• 11 sixes, 16 fours in seven innings
With Ponting urging him to “trust instinct” and Iyer promising a long rope, Priyansh Arya’s fearless brand has already reshaped Punjab’s power-play blueprint. Another marquee knock could soon fast-track the Delhi slugger from trending phenomenon to India cap.
