「私はGoogleを知りませんでした…」：Shashank Singhは、キャプテンシュレイヤスiyerに会うことを切望している9番目に指名されたアスリートであることをPBKクレジットに与えています

Shashank Singh has credited his IPL franchise Punjab Kings for becoming the ninth most-searched athlete on Google. Following his stellar performance in the previous season, the batter found himself on the list of top 10 most-searched athletes on Google. The “wrong” Shashank proved to be the perfect find for PBKS as he aced his role as the finisher. Now, he is looking forward to IPL 2025 where he will play under Shreyas Iyer’s captaincy.

Shashank credits PBKS for his rise to fame

As per a Punjab Kings press release, Shashank acknowledged that being ranked 9th on Google’s list was a big thing although he was unaware of such rankings. He credited PBKS for his achievement, adding that the franchise had always backed him. He said that he felt good that people were searching for him and providing a validation for the hard work he has put in.

“I didn’t know Google releases a list of people who are most-searched across the world. It’s a big thing, honestly. It has been possible because of Punjab Kings,” Shashank said.
