Shreyas Iyer IPL 2025

As the IPL 2025 mega auction approaches, the spotlight is on Shreyas Iyer, who has emerged as a key target for several franchises after being released by Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR). 

Shreyas  Iyer, who captained KKR to the title last season, is now available for bidding, and multiple teams are likely to vie for his services. 

Here are three teams that may target Iyer in the upcoming auction.

1. Delhi Capitals

With Rishabh Pant’s departure from the team, Delhi Capitals are actively seeking a new captain. 

Shreyas Iyer has previously led the franchise and could be a natural fit for the leadership role. 

His familiarity with the team dynamics and his experience as a captain make him an attractive option for DC.

The Capitals will be looking to strengthen their batting lineup, especially in the middle order. 

Iyer’s ability to anchor innings and play aggressively when needed aligns perfectly with Delhi’s requirements.

2. Punjab Kings

Following Shikhar Dhawan’s retirement, Punjab Kings are also in search of a new leader. 

The franchise has brought in former Delhi Capitals coach Ricky Ponting, who is familiar with Iyer’s capabilities and leadership style. 

This connection could facilitate Iyer’s transition to Punjab.

Punjab Kings need a reliable batsman who can stabilize their innings while also leading the team effectively. Iyer’s experience and skill set make him an ideal candidate to fill this void.

3. Royal Challengers Bengaluru

With Faf du Plessis released from his captaincy role, Royal Challengers Bengaluru is exploring options for a new leader. 

Reports suggest that Virat Kohli may not return as captain, opening the door for other candidates like Shreyas Iyer.

Batting depth with Shreyash Iyer could provide the stability RCB needs to compete for the championship.
