Arshdeep Singh has built his entire IPL career in one shirt. Since making his debut for Kings XI Punjab in 2019, the left-arm fast bowler has grown into Punjab Kings’ most dependable pace bowler and their all-time leading wicket-taker. His Arshdeep Singh IPL stats tell the story of a bowler who mastered the two hardest phases of T20 cricket: swinging the new ball in the powerplay and nailing yorkers at the death.
The highlight of his journey came at the IPL 2025 mega auction, when Punjab used their Right to Match card to buy him back for ₹18 crore, making him the most expensive Indian fast bowler in IPL auction history. He repaid that faith with 21 wickets in 2025, the best single-season haul of his career, as Punjab reached the IPL final. Here is a complete look at Arshdeep Singh’s IPL career numbers, season-wise stats, auction price history, and records through 17 October 2026.

Who Is Arshdeep Singh?
Arshdeep Singh is an Indian left-arm fast bowler born on 5 February 1999 in Guna, Madhya Pradesh. He first came into the spotlight as part of India’s 2018 Under-19 World Cup-winning squad and was picked up by Kings XI Punjab for his base price of ₹20 lakh ahead of IPL 2019. After a quiet start, his breakthrough came in 2021 with 18 wickets, and he has been a central part of the Punjab bowling attack ever since.
His left-arm angle, new-ball swing, and calm execution at the death made him an India regular from 2022 onwards. In the IPL he has spent his whole career with one franchise, and in April 2026 he became the first player to take 100 IPL wickets for Punjab Kings. His career-best figures of 5/32, taken against Rajasthan Royals in 2021, remain the best bowling figures by any Punjab bowler in IPL history.

Arshdeep has never played for another IPL franchise. He debuted for Kings XI Punjab in 2019 and stayed with the franchise through its rebrand to Punjab Kings, its rebuilds, and its run to the 2025 final. He was retained ahead of the 2026 season at ₹18 crore.
Arshdeep Singh IPL 2024 Stats
| Discipline | Mat | Overs | Wkts | BBI | Avg | Econ | 4w | 5w |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Bowling | 14 | 50.2 | 19 | 4/29 | 26.58 | 10.03 | 1 | 0 |
Arshdeep took 19 wickets in IPL 2024, finishing fourth in the season’s overall wicket charts. It was a classic two-sided Arshdeep campaign: regular breakthroughs with the new ball and one four-wicket haul, but an economy rate above 10 that reflected how often he bowled the toughest overs. He also scored 4 runs with the bat, including one boundary, in his only innings of the season.
Arshdeep Singh IPL 2025 Stats
| Discipline | Mat | Overs | Wkts | BBI | Avg | Econ | 4w | 5w |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Bowling | 17 | 58.2 | 21 | 3/16 | 24.67 | 8.88 | 0 | 0 |
His best IPL season. Bought back through the RTM card at the mega auction, Arshdeep finished 2025 with 21 wickets, the highest tally of his career and the most by any Punjab bowler that season. His average of 24.67 and economy of 8.88 were his best full-season returns, and he played a key part as Punjab topped the table and reached the final. One defining spell came against Kolkata Knight Riders, when Punjab defended just 111, the lowest total ever defended in IPL history, and Arshdeep bowled a wicket-maiden with Andre Russell at the crease.
Arshdeep Singh IPL 2026 Stats
| Discipline | Mat | Overs | Wkts | BBI | Avg | Econ | 4w | 5w |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Bowling | 14 | 53.0 | 14 | 3/22 | 38.64 | 10.21 | 0 | 0 |
A difficult season, but one with a historic high. Arshdeep managed 14 wickets at an economy of 10.21 as Punjab missed the playoffs, and he became the first bowler to concede more than 500 runs in three successive IPL seasons. Yet his finest moment came on 16 April 2026 against Mumbai Indians, when 3/22, including the wicket of Ryan Rickelton, made him the first player to take 100 IPL wickets for Punjab Kings.

It is his only IPL five-wicket haul and the best bowling figures by any Punjab Kings bowler in IPL history.

Arshdeep Singh IPL Auction Price History
| Season | Team | Price | Status |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2019 | Kings XI Punjab | ₹20 lakh | Auction (bought at base price) |
| 2020 | Kings XI Punjab | ₹20 lakh | Retained |
| 2021 | Punjab Kings | ₹20 lakh | Retained |

| 2026 | Punjab Kings | ₹18 crore | Retained |
| 2027 | Not officially confirmed | Not officially confirmed | Season not started |
Arshdeep’s price history is one of the steepest climbs in IPL history: from a ₹20 lakh base-price pick in 2019 to ₹18 crore in 2025. Punjab chose not to retain him ahead of the 2025 mega auction in Jeddah, but used their Right to Match card to bring him back after Sunrisers Hyderabad pushed the bidding to ₹15.75 crore and then ₹18 crore, which Punjab matched. He was then retained ahead of IPL 2026 at ₹18 crore alongside Yuzvendra Chahal, with all-rounder Marcus Stoinis and Shreyas Iyer among the other high-value retentions that season.

Arshdeep Singh’s IPL Performance Analysis
The numbers show a bowler with a clear arc. From 2021 to 2025, Arshdeep took 18, 10, 17, 19 and 21 wickets in consecutive seasons, and his 2025 campaign was his most complete: 21 wickets at 24.67 with an economy under 9, achieved while leading an attack that carried Punjab to the final. His 2022 season stands out for control rather than volume, with just 10 wickets but a superb economy of 7.70, the season that sealed his India debut.
The trade-off in his profile is clear. His economy has crossed 9 in four of the last five seasons, and 10.21 in 2026 was the worst of his career, a reflection of the death-overs workload he carries. Yet his powerplay record is elite: a large share of his wickets arrive in the first six overs, and his ability to swing the new ball both ways keeps him first-choice even in poor seasons. Having played alongside former PBKS captain Shikhar Dhawan early in his career and later with seamers like fellow seamer Mohammed Shami, Arshdeep is now the senior bowler others build around.
The dip in 2026 should be read in context: he was still Punjab’s joint-highest wicket-taker that season, and poor form for one campaign does not erase five seasons of consistent output. If Punjab retain him for 2027, he will start the season as the franchise’s most important bowler; if he goes back into the auction pool after two ₹18 crore seasons, another bidding war is likely. Either way, the 100-wicket milestone guarantees his place in Punjab’s history.
