Owen, who was signed as a replacement for injured Glenn Maxwell, was signed for Rs 3 crore for the remainder of the tournament earlier this month. He has played 34 T20s and scored 646 runs, including two centuries and a highest score of 108. Owen also has 10 T20 wickets to his name. He was part of the PSL franchise Peshawar Zalmi before linking up with the IPL side.
On his PSL debut season, Owen scored 102 runs in eight innings at an electric strike rate of 192.45.
The 23-year-old went unsold in last year's IPL mega auction but made a stunning comeback this January by etching his name into Big Bash League history. He matched Craig Simmons’ record for the fastest BBL century, blasting 108 off just 42 balls—including 11 sixes to lead the Hobart Hurricanes to their first-ever title.
Building on his BBL heroics, he hammered a brilliant 149 off 69 deliveries for Tasmania in the One-Day Cup. His explosive form has since attracted franchise interest, earning him contracts in both the SA20 and PSL.
