Syed Mushtaq Ali T20 Trophy: India batter Shreyas Iyer said he is eager to brainstorm alongside Ricky Ponting once again in the Punjab Kings set-up for IPL 2025, and recalled of how he shared a great camaraderie with the legendary Australia skipper previously in the tournament.
Ponting and Iyer were head coach and captain in the Delhi Capitals’ for three seasons, where the side once finished as runners-up in 2020. But with Ponting named as Punjab’s head coach earlier this year and the franchise acquiring Iyer for INR 26.75 crore in the auction at Jeddah last month all but sealed their reunion.
"I can understand what the feelings must be among the fans. With Ricky coming in, we have shared a great camaraderie from the past. We would be putting our thinking caps on and brainstorming on many aspects. Hopefully, we will deliver from the match one."
