My Goal Is To Help Punjab Kings Lift IPL Trophy For First Time: Shreyas Iyer

By IANS News May 29, 2025 • 15:22 PM View: 478

Kolkata Knight Riders: Punjab Kings skipper Shreyas Iyer opened up about the team’s renewed mindset and his motivation to end the team’s title drought and bring the IPL trophy home and give fans a reason to celebrate.

Iyer, the IPL 2024 winning captain for Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR), was acquired by PBKS in last year’s mega auction for a whopping Rs 26.75 crore. PBKS’ move to break the bank for Iyer has paid off as the side has secured a top-two finish and reached the playoffs for the first time since 2014.
