The match between the Sunrisers Hyderabad and the Punjab Kings was hosted by the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium, Uppal, Hyderabad.
Iyer has started his journey with his new team, Punjab Kings, on a good note. He has been praised a lot by his teammates as well as cricket experts for his leadership.
However, in the high-intensity match between the Sunrisers Hyderabad and the Punjab Kings, a different version of Iyer was seen as he looked quite charged up and was seen losing his cool a few times.
However, Glenn Maxwell and Prabhsimran were adamant that Travis Head got something on it and signaled for a DRS. The on-field umpire shockingly went upstairs instantly without consulting captain Shreyas Iyer, which made him angry.

The confidence Iyer carries is remarkable - Nehal Wadhera
Speaking ahead of the match, the star PBKS batsman Nehal Wadhera showered rich praise on Iyer for the confidence that he carries. He also lauded Iyer for the way he has connected with all the players in his new franchise
"The way he (Shreyas Iyer) instantly connected with all the players—I really liked it. The confidence he (Shreyas Iyer) carries is remarkable. When a captain shows that kind of belief, it automatically lifts the morale of the team. If you look at their past together—Shreyas Iyer and Ricky Ponting during their time at DC—it was a successful combination.
"And Ricky Ponting, being the legend he is, brings so much to the table. When I work with him in the nets, everything he says feels so positive. Even the negatives don’t register—they don’t seem to reach our ears. Being around him feels like a blessing,” Wadhera concluded.
