The Punjab Kings do have an inexperienced bowling lineup. However, this weakness also opens up opportunities for the young pacers in the team. Ishan Porel can emerge as the supporting bowler for Mohammed Shami, while Arshdeep Singh has a chance of replicating his IPL 2020 performance.

Singh had taken nine wickets for Punjab in eight matches last year. He is a left-arm fast bowler, which means he will have a unique angle to trouble the batsmen. So, Arshdeep has an opportunity to step up in IPL 2021 and cement his place in the Punjab Kings squad for the upcoming seasons.

Another bowler who can take advantage of the inexperience in the bowling unit is left-arm spinner Harpreet Brar. Harpreet could bring variety to the table with his left-arm orthodox spin. The rising star got only one chance to play for the Punjab Kings in IPL 2020.
