Mitchell Owen ipl Debut: Punjab Kings have given all -rounder Mitchell Owen a chance to debut IPL. Owen will play the first match of his IPL career in the match against Rajasthan Royals. He got a place in IPL 2025 as a replacement of injured Glenn Maxwell. Let us know that Owen has not played any international cricket match for Australia yet, but has created panic in domestic cricket.

Mitchell Owen is a special player in itself, who knows the middle order as well as opening in batting. Owen’s talents do not end here because they also bowl fast with right hand. Owen made an identity in franchise cricket when he scored 452 runs after playing 11 matches in BBL 2024-25. The special thing is that he had scored so many runs at a great average of 45.20.

This Australian player was earlier playing for Peshawar Jalmi in PSL and he has also received full support of Punjab Kings head coach Ricky Ponting. Talking about Rajasthan Royals on the other hand, South African young fast bowler Quena Mafaka has been replaced by Jofra Archer. Mafaka played 2 matches for Mumbai Indians last season, in which he took one wicket.

Opener and attachment too

Glenn Maxwell was struggling with poor form in IPL 2025, who scored just 48 runs in 7 matches played in the tournament. Mitchell Owen’s arrival can prove to be a profitable deal for Punjab Kings. Owen has scored 647 runs in his 35 -match T20 career. His strike rate is around 184, which makes him one of the extremely explosive batsmen. They open, while in bowling, he has also taken 10 wickets.
