Bajo el liderazgo de Shreyas Iyer, KKR ganó la última edición completa de la Premier League india.
IPL 2025: Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) had an excellent outing in the last concluded IPL as they lifted the coveted trophy. Under the leadership of Shreyas Iyer in IPL 2024, the Men in Purple and Gold won their third title in the cash-rich league. With the IPL mega auction coming up, there are rumours of Shreyas Iyer being released from the KKR camp. In this article, we will take a look at some reasons why releasing Shreyas Iyer might backfire for the Knight Riders.
Reasons why KKR should retain Shreyas Iyer for IPL 2025
Trophy winning captain
Shreyas Iyer’s journey with KKR has been nothing short of remarkable. Leading the team to their third IPL title in 2024, Iyer has proven his mettle as a captain. His bowling changes and field placements during the crunch situations were praised by many pundits and experts. Similarly, it would be unwise on KKR’s part to remove the leader who just won the prestigious trophy.
Reliable batter
Iyer has not only proven his mettle as a captain but also as a reliable middle-order batsman. His ability to anchor innings or accelerate when required has been crucial. To note, Iyer has also not shown his full batting capabilities for KKR so far. The right-handed batter will look to change all that in the upcoming edition.
Long term leader
Among all the IPL captains, Shreyas Iyer falls under the category of young captains. For KKR, Shreyas Iyer can be a long-term captaincy option in IPL. Even during his initial days as captain in IPL, Shreyas Iyer did a fantastic job with Delhi Capitals as they also reached the final match of IPL 2020 but lost against MI.
