IPL 2025: PBKS Spin Coach Joshi Acknowledges Shreyas Iyer’s Improvement Against Pace
Kolkata Knight Riders: Ahead of their key encounter with Kolkata Knight Riders, Punjab Kings' spin-bowling coach, Sunil Joshi, has praised captain Shreyas Iyer for his improvement against pace bowling this season. Addressing the media ahead of the match which will see Shreyas Iyer for the first time visit Eden Gardens after he led them to the IPL 2024 title and then was not retained, Joshi also shared his insights on players’ forms and team strategy.
Joshi began by acknowledging the comeback of the Indian spinner Yuzvendra Chahal, who took four wickets against the Knight Riders in their first encounter at New Chandigarh. "I think Yuzi is the highest wicket-taker in IPL history. Big-match players don't need to be reminded of what they are capable of. They can always make a difference. It's just the confidence and bowling in the right areas that help them perform strongly,” he stated.
The spin-bowling coach was also asked about captain Shreyas Iyer, who had helped KKR win their third IPL title last year, and his improvement while playing spin bowling.
