- The lineup features the return of Prabhsimran Singh, who missed the Assam opener due to India A commitments. Gill is expected to bat at number four, with Jashanpreet Sidhu making way for the Test skipper.
- Younger squad members are gaining experience by observing the dedication of international stars at training. This mentorship is central to Uniyal's vision of building a competitive, resilient Punjab team that fights for results.
- Punjab aims to build on their three-point opening result against Assam amid a busy domestic schedule. Players like Gill remain focused on domestic red-ball cricket before India's Test series against New Zealand begins next month.
