Shreyas Iyer named Punjab Kings’ captain
Ahead of the IPL 2025, Punjab Kings have taken a major decision by naming Shreyas Iyer as the team’s skipper for IPL 2025. Shreyas Iyer, who is highly talented and most experienced, led KKR to title victory last year. Iyer was released by KKR and snapped up by Punjab Kings for INR 26.75.
Iyer expressed happiness after being named team’s skipper and hoped to repay the faith. Meanwhile, Punjab Kings are yet to win their maiden IPL title.
"I am honoured that the team has reposed its faith in me. I am looking forward to working again with coach [Ricky] Ponting. The team looks strong, with a great mix of potential and proven performers. I hope to repay the faith shown by the management to deliver our maiden title," Iyer said.
Punjab Kings head coach Ricky Ponting said, “Shreyas has a great mind for the game. His proven capabilities as captain will enable the team to deliver. I have enjoyed my time with Iyer in the past in IPL, and I look forward to working with him again. With his leadership and the talent in the squad, I am excited about the seasons ahead."
