Punjab Kings
Punjab Kings were IPL 2025 finalists under new captain Shreyas Iyer, the closest they've ever come to a title. With Ricky Ponting's coaching and Iyer's battle-tested captaincy, PBKS enter 2026 as genuine contenders. Arshdeep Singh's death bowling and Livingstone's 360-degree hitting give them a distinct edge.
