Shreyas looking for Kohli for himself? Uses in IPL, International Preparation … – IPL 2025 Punjab Kings Iyer Wants to Mark Himself at Number Three This IPL NTCPBM
There are only a few days left in the debut of IPL-2025. The match between Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) and Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) at the historic Eden Gardens in Kolkata will start the world’s most breathtaking T20 league season from the match between Bangalore (RCB).
Meanwhile, star batsman Shreyas Iyer has decided his special target for the current IPL. 30 -year -old Shreyas is not a part of India’s T20 team right now. He wants to make a comeback in Team India by performing well while playing for Punjab Kings in IPL. The Punjab Kings team will play their first match against Gujarat Titans in Ahmedabad on 25 March.
Batting at number four in the recently concluded Champions Trophy, Shreyas Iyer, who played a key role in Team India’s victory, has made up his mind to bat at number three in this season of IPL. Actually, he wants to fix his place on number-3 in Team India’s T20 team.
Kohli, who has retired from T20 International, was very successful while batting at number three. Kohli batted at number three in 80 T20 matches out of 125 for Team India and scored runs from 53.96 average.
Captain Rohit Sharma called Shreyas Iyer as ‘Silent Hero’ after winning the title in the Champions Trophy. In the last 8 ODIs, Iyer has scored at number four with an average of 53.
Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) won the title under the captaincy of Shreyas Iyer in the previous season. Iyer then batted in the middle order. Iyer said, ‘If I would like to install myself in one place in T20, then it will be the third number. My focus is on this. I would not say that we are planning a plan about which number I have to bat.
He said, ‘This time I am clear about my number in batting order and as long as I will continue to support the coach (Ricky Ponting), I will focus on that number.’
Former Australia captain Ponting said, ‘I was desperate to work again with Shreyas. We have a very good working relationship between us in Delhi for a long time. He is one of the best players with whom I have worked.
He said, ‘He is a very good person and IPL winning captain. What else do you need more than this. He is associated with the team a few days ago and wants to leave his mark on the team as a captain.
