We Have To Be At Our Best From First Match: Ludhiana Lions Arshdeep Singh Ahead Of Sher-e-Punjab T20 League

Punjab T20 League: The excitement is building up as the Sher-e-Punjab T20 League 2026 is all set to begin on August 30 at the I.S. Bindra Stadium in Chandigarh. Six teams will battle it out for the coveted title, with some of Punjabs finest cricketing talent set to take centre stage. Among the teams in the competition are the Ludhiana Lions, who have made a major statement by picking Indias left-arm pace sensation Arshdeep Singh as their marquee player. The fast bowler is delighted to be part of the tournament and is looking forward to representing the Lions in what promises to be an exciting season. Speaking about the tournament and his preparations, Arshdeep said, It feels great to be part of the Sher-e-Punjab T20 League. There is a lot of excitement around the tournament, and I am really looking forward to being part of the Ludhiana Lions and this journey. The preparations have been very good so far. We have spent a lot of time working on our skills, understanding our roles and preparing for different match situations. Now, the main focus is to take that confidence from the training ground into the matches, he said. Arshdeep also highlighted the positive atmosphere within the Ludhiana Lions camp, with players pushing each other during the preparation sessions. Everyone has been very serious during the practice sessions. There is healthy competition within the squad, and that is always a good sign for any team. We have also worked on different match situations because T20 cricket can change very quickly. One over, one partnership or one wicket can change the entire game, so the aim is to be ready for every situation and make the right decisions under pressure, he added. With several quality players expected to feature in the tournament, Arshdeep believes the competition will be intense from the very beginning. However, he feels the key will be to stay focused on each game rather than looking too far ahead. The competition is going to be tough because every team has quality players. There are no easy games in T20 cricket, so we will have to be at our best from the first match. We don't want to look too far ahead. The focus will be on taking one game at a time, executing our plans and continuing to improve as the tournament progresses. If we can stay consistent and play according to our plans, hopefully we can have a good campaign, Arshdeep said. The India pacer also spoke about the importance of the Sher-e-Punjab T20 League in providing a platform for young cricketers from the state. With youngsters getting an opportunity to share the dressing room with experienced players, Arshdeep believes the tournament can play an important role in shaping the next generation of Punjab cricketers. For a youngster, playing alongside experienced players can be a huge advantage. There is so much they can learn just by watching how senior players train, how they prepare before a match, and how they handle pressure when the situation is not going their way. These small things can make a big difference in a young player's development, he said. Arshdeep feels the success of the league should not only be measured by the team that lifts the trophy, but also by the number of young players who use the platform to make a name for themselves.

'Seeing Young Lads Get Exposure, IPL Contracts Is Ultimate Reward': Amritsar Soormas' Skipper Abhishek Sharma

Punjab T20 League: Amritsar Soormas captain Abhishek Sharma reflected on leading the side in the Sher-e-Punjab T20 League and stated that the biggest reward would be seeing his young teammates use the platform to earn state and IPL opportunities. Leading his hometown team will make the Sher-e-Punjab T20 League a particularly special assignment for Abhishek, who is relishing the opportunity to captain Amritsar Soormas and help shape the next generation of Punjab cricketers. Lifting the trophy would be special, but true success means seeing three or four young lads from our squad gain the confidence and exposure to earn IPL contracts and state call-ups. If I can inspire the next generation from Amritsar whilst playing winning cricket, that is the ultimate reward, he said. He also sees the league as a major opportunity for Punjabs emerging cricketers, providing them with exposure to competitive, televised cricket and professional franchise environments. It is a game-changer for Punjab cricket. There is immense raw talent across districts that does not always get immediate limelight in national domestic tournaments. A televised, competitive league bridges that gap, he said. For Abhishek, whose cricketing journey began in Amritsar, wearing the Soormas crest carries a strong emotional significance. It is an honour to lead this team and a deeply emotional responsibility as well. Punjab has given me everything in my cricketing journey, and stepping out not just as a player but as captain to lead a franchise in my home states T20 league is a proud milestone, he said.
