Shreyas Iyer has achieved a remarkable milestone that the 5-time IPL-winning skipper MS Dhoni and Rohit Sharma could never even dream of in their legendary tenures.
Under the leadership of Iyer, Punjab Kings had one of the best seasons ever in the Indian Premier League in 2025 as they finished at the top of the points table.
Although Punjab Kings faced a crushing loss against Royal Challengers Bengaluru in Qualifier 1, they bounced back strong to beat the Mumbai Indians in Qualifier 2 and register a 5-wicket win.
The last time Punjab Kings made it to the final was in 2014, and in that match, they suffered a heartbreaking defeat at the hands of the Kolkata Knight Riders.
Shreyas Iyer becomes the first player in the world to achieve this feat
He has become the first IPL captain to lead three different teams to the finals. Iyer made his captaincy debut in the Indian Premier League for Delhi Capitals in the 2018 edition and made a quick impact by taking them to the final in 2020, where they lost to Mumbai Indians.
Captains to play back-to-back IPL finals:
Rohit Sharma – Mumbai Indians (2019,2020)
Shreyas Iyer – Kolkata Knight Riders (2024) and Punjab Kings (2025)
Shreyas Iyer hails uncapped Punjab Kings players
Speaking after the match, Iyer lauded the uncapped players of the Punjab Kings and said that he allows them to play their natural game and be fearless. He said:
"They would be having a fair set of ideas about how to play that situation. Even though they haven't got that much of experience, they've got the brave nature and on such big occasions, it's important that they gain more experience."
