Punjab Kings have assembled a strong and versatile pace-bowling lineup for IPL 2026, combining proven Indian internationals with experienced overseas fast bowlers. The squad offers options for every phase of a T20 innings, including new-ball swing, middle-over control, and death-over execution.<\/p>\n
Here is the complete list of pace bowlers in the Punjab Kings (PBKS) squad for IPL 2026.<\/p>\n
Arshdeep Singh is the leader of PBKS\u2019 pace attack. The left-arm fast bowler is trusted with both the new ball and the death overs, known for his accurate yorkers, calm temperament, and ability to deliver under pressure. He remains Punjab Kings\u2019 most important Indian fast bowler.<\/p>\n
Lockie Ferguson brings express pace and aggression to the PBKS bowling unit. Capable of bowling at high speeds, Ferguson is used to intimidate batters and force mistakes, especially during the middle overs. His international and franchise experience adds significant value to the attack.<\/p>\n
Marco Jansen provides left-arm pace, bounce, and all-round value. His height allows him to extract steep bounce, making him effective with the new ball. Jansen\u2019s ability to contribute with the bat further strengthens his role in the squad.<\/p>\n
Ben Dwarshuis returned to Punjab Kings at the IPL 2026 mini-auction. The Australian left-arm pacer is an experienced T20 campaigner, known for his variations and control. He offers PBKS an additional option for both powerplay and death-over spells.<\/p>\n
Xavier Bartlett adds depth to PBKS\u2019 overseas pace resources. Known for his disciplined lines and ability to move the ball early, Bartlett can be used in conditions favouring seam bowling, particularly during the powerplay.<\/p>\n
Vijaykumar Vyshak strengthens the Indian pace contingent. He provides control and flexibility, allowing PBKS to rotate bowlers and manage workloads across the season.<\/p>\n
Yash Thakur is another Indian fast bowler in the PBKS setup. Capable of bowling in short spells, he adds further depth and support to the pace attack.<\/p>\n
