Delhi batter Priyansh Arya announced himself in emphatic fashion in the IPL 2025, smashing a 39-ball century for Punjab Kings against Chennai Super Kings.

The opener exhibited immense confidence and control during his innings, scoring 103 runs in a display that combined calculated aggression with natural flair.

After the match, Arya spoke candidly about the mindset behind his explosive innings. He credited Punjab Kings captain Shreyas Iyer for giving him the freedom to trust his instincts.

"In the last game, Shreyas Iyer talked about backing your instincts; he suggested I play the way I want to. I was thinking that if I get the first ball in my slot, I will definitely hit it for a six," Arya said in between the innings.

Arya's intent was evident from the very first ball, which he dispatched for a six, setting the tone for what would become one of the most impactful innings of the tournament so far. His attacking approach never wavered, as he reached his half-century in just 19 balls before converting it into a century - the fastest by an uncapped Indian player in IPL history and the second-fastest by any Indian, behind Yusuf Pathan's 37-ball ton in 2010.

"I want to express myself as much as I can and not restrict myself," Arya added, highlighting the clarity in his approach.

In a lighter moment during the post-match interaction, Arya was asked whether he found the Indian Premier League or Delhi Premier League more easy. With a smile, he replied DPL!
