In a recent IPL 2026 match, Suryansh Shedge, a young all-rounder for Punjab Kings, impressed with a quickfire 57 runs off 29 balls against Gujarat Titans. Former India batter Ambati Rayudu praised Shedge's fearless strokeplay and confidence, noting his ability to clear the boundary, which is crucial for a finisher. Shedge, who had previously made a name for himself in the 2024-25 Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy, stepped up when Punjab was struggling at 36/4. He formed a vital 79-run partnership with Marcus Stoinis, helping to revive the innings. Despite benefiting from some loose bowling, Shedge's aggressive approach was evident, particularly when he targeted Manav Suthar in the 14th over. However, his innings ended when he edged a delivery from Kagiso Rabada, leaving Punjab with a total of 163/9, slightly below par for a competitive match.
