Punjab Kings (PBK) Indian Premier League (IPL) will close the horns against Gujarat Titans (GT) in their first game of 2025. Shreyas Iyer is ready to lead Pbks for the first time. However, this is not the first time as a captain. He led the Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) to win the league last season. In addition, his captaincy praise is tremendous in domestic tournaments.
This is one of the main reasons PBK bought the player for INR 26.75 crore at the mega auction. The franchise has shown confidence and faith in the player and has given him a captaincy status. It would be complicated to see Iyer handling his new team.
Meanwhile, the PBKS team was engaged together where all employees and players were present. During the meeting, young batsman Mushir Khan was seen copying Iyer's style of walking and the way he interacts with people.
A video of the same went viral on social media as coach Ricky Ponting was seen impressed by Musheer's act. He nodded his head with a smile and clapped for the player. On the other hand, Iyer stood and was laughing at the way Musher copied her.

Did Shreyas Iyer lead PBK to win the title in IPL 2025?
Without a doubt, Shreyas Iyer is one of the best captains in the League. He has a great experience in this department, start his journey by leading Delhi Capital (then Daredevils) in 2018. He did not stop there. He helped DC qualify for the playoffs from 2019-21 and qualified for the final in 2020. Iyer then became the captain of KKR in 2022 and led the team to win in 2024.
If we talk about PBK, the team may lack some strikers in the top and middle overs. Meanwhile, bowling seems to be determined for them. However, Ricky Ponting is the head coach of PBKS, who has a good synergy with Iyer, and together, they both have the ability to lead the team for their first title.
