Lucknow Super Giants: Punjab Kings’ well-rounded bowling attack has emerged as a defining force in their IPL 2026 campaign, drawing high praise from former South Africa captain Faf du Plessis, who believes the side’s strength lies in its ability to deploy a variety of wicket-taking options at different phases of the game.

Following PBKS’ dominant 54-run win over the Lucknow Super Giants, du Plessis highlighted how the team’s diverse bowler arsenal allows them to stay one step ahead, adapting seamlessly to match situations while maintaining an attacking edge.

"When we are talking about putting bowling attacks together, you want variety. As a captain, you've got all the different guns at your disposal that you can just pull the trigger at different stages and that's what gives them very, very great variety in their bowling attack,” he told ESPNcricinfo.
