Grew Up Watching Shaun Marsh, Honour To Play For PBKS He Did: Connolly
Debutant Cooper Connolly: Debutant Cooper Connolly described his match-winning outing for Punjab Kings as a special moment after guiding his side to a three-wicket win over Gujarat Titans in their IPL 2026 opener in New Chandigarh on Tuesday and said that it was an 'honour' to represent the same franchise as his idol Shaun Marsh.
Connolly, who struck an unbeaten 72 off 44 balls, held his nerve in a tense chase of 163 after Punjab suffered a middle-order collapse. Having shared a 76-run stand with Prabhsimran Singh (37), the Australian all-rounder anchored the innings even as wickets fell in clusters, eventually steering the side home with five balls to spare.
Reflecting on his debut and the opportunity to represent Punjab, Connolly said it carried personal significance. “Shaun Marsh played for the Punjab Kings and I grew up watching him. It's sort of an honour to sort of play for the same franchise as him, and looking forward to the next game and looking forward as a team,” he said in a video shared by IPL, adding that getting off to a winning start made the experience even more memorable.
