Attacking batter Abhishek Sharma is someone who needs no introduction. He is not only the captain of the Amritsar Soormas but will also have the responsibility of leading the franchise in the upcoming season. He has been enjoying a decent run of form in 2026, where he helped India win the T20 World Cup and later enjoyed a good stint with the bat for Sunrisers Hyderabad in the IPL. So, all eyes will be on Abhishek.

Harpreet Brar is one of the most skilled slow left-arm bowlers in the state of Punjab. His immense experience of playing T20 franchise cricket makes him an extremely key asset for the Mohali Kings in the upcoming contest. He has the ability to castle the batters with his clever spin and bowling tactics. As a result, Brar will be looking to prove his worth in the upcoming contest.
