The mega auction for the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 has sparked excitement with several team shuffles. As the new edition of the league approaches, fans can look forward to a fresh, revamped format. In a major development, the Punjab Kings have announced Shreyas Iyer as their captain for the upcoming season.
Iyer, who led Kolkata Knight Riders to victory in the previous season, made the bold decision to opt out of the team and re-enter the auction. His decision paid off when Punjab Kings secured his services for a hefty sum of 26.75 crore rupees.
The 30-year-old batsman has enjoyed a remarkable 12 months in both domestic cricket and IPL, solidifying his reputation as one of the best leaders in the game. Iyer’s leadership abilities and performance on the field have earned him widespread recognition.
“I am honored that the team has reposed its faith in me. I am excited to work alongside Coach Ponting once again,” said Shreyas Iyer. “The squad is looking formidable, with a fantastic blend of potential and established stars. I am determined to repay the trust placed in me and help deliver Punjab Kings’ maiden IPL title.”
