Xavier Bartlett, a pacer for the Punjab Kings in the Indian Premier League (IPL), has praised his teammate Arshdeep Singh for his significant influence on his adaptation to Indian conditions. With 4 wickets and best figures of 2/9 in IPL 2026, Bartlett noted Arshdeep's extensive experience and hard work, stating, "He's had so much experience in these conditions, and has been someone I've loved working with." He highlighted the variety in the pace attack, which includes players like Marco Jansen and Vijaykumar Vyshak, as a key strength for the team. Bartlett also expressed appreciation for captain Shreyas Iyer and head coach Ricky Ponting, crediting them for creating a calm and confident atmosphere that has contributed to the team's unbeaten start. He remarked, "Shreyas is very cool, calm and collected on the field," which helps maintain composure during matches. Additionally, Bartlett shared his views on the IPL's 'Impact Player' rule, likening it to the Big Bash League's X-factor rule, stating it enhances the game's excitement. Despite his success in white-ball formats, he aspires to play Test cricket for Australia, aiming for the prestigious baggy green cap.
