“Shreyas Iyer brings positivity and desire to win”: The former Indian star praises the captain of PBKS

Suresh Raina, a former Indian cricket player and IPL winners four times, was purchased for Shreyas Iyer’s positive effect as a captain-cum-yara, and in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025. So far, PBKS has paid a move to break the banks for Iyer – using a right hand, including four fifty -hitting, including an average of 50.63 runs in 11 matches.

Iyer, who made Ricky Ponting in the shelter as a captain and as a head coach, was clever and proactive under his leadership, which led the PBKs to be 15 points and ranked third in the score table. The party now needs two wins of the remaining three games to seal a point in the playoffs since the 2014 IPL.

“I think the two best players, Prabhsimran Singh and Piyansh Arya, laid the foundation of Punjab. After that, Shreyas Iyer’s good shot and the side is important in the form of grabbing.

“I’m sure Ricky Ponting creates this environment, but if you look at its domestic players, Arshdeep (Singh), (Yuzvendra) Chahal, Priyansh, Prabhsimran, and especially Shashank Singh, play, especially when seven players play and play all the time,” and all the time.

“Also, if you look at the quality of Shreyas Iyer’s last three years – the stroke, the ODI World Cup and the Champions Cup (performances). Positiveness is something different from it, when the Punjab team played a different way in 2014, when the viru Bhai (Virender Sehehwag) played in a different way, as I have never seen before,”

“But Shreyas Iyer brings quality in the dressing room. It brings positiveness and the desire to win.

Iyer’s case was very interesting – KKR covered the title of IPL last year, and now he has the chance to win again, but this time for PBKS. The legendary Indian dough Sunil Gavascar said that IYER’s leadership skills help to wear the hard trophy when PBKS’s IPL 2025 finals on June 3.

“This (the big run of the PBKs) actually describes the importance of the captain, because the coach there and strategic time -out – ram and support staff. But at the end of the day, the decision must be taken by the captain in one second and I think you need to give credit to Shreyas Iyer last year because it is in difficult situations.

“But he took off from a difficult situation to win them, and I think they’re doing exactly the same thing here. They had a little bad chance, if you could say that, they started very well in Dhamshala (then called later).

“Then again, they had received about 206 or 207 points in the Gardens – a winning score, but the game rained. So yes, they had a little chance to go on their way.
