The Punjab Kings have had one of the most successful captains in the history of the team's legacy in the IPL, in the form of Shreyas Iyer. The Indian middle-order batter has almost reinvented the side and rediscovered their abilities.
Shreyas Iyer has picked up his captaincy streak from where he left off last season. Iyer has been a truly amazing leader in PBKS, with five wins in 6 of their initial matches in IPL 2026. Under the skipper, the team has looked invincible by all means.
Answering this question, Zaheer Khan, the former Indian pacer, replied on Cricbuzz, "I think first to be part of the T20 setup will be something on his mind; I am not sure if he is thinking about captaincy at this moment. In due course, he can be the contender for that, if that is what you are asking."
"He should be thinking about making an impact with his performances" - Zaheer Khan
"He has been captaining franchises for a while now and has been successful in the way he has led them. Clearly, he has that kind of look out and that mindset," explained Zaheer, who considered Shreyas' overwhelming record as a captain for three IPL franchises.
Shreyas Iyer becomes the first captain in IPL history to extend a 6-match undefeated streak
Shreyas Iyer started his captaincy journey in the IPL under Ricky Ponting when he was with the Delhi Capitals as a young and promising youngster. He then later switched sides to the Kolkata Knight Riders, after tremendous success with the Capitals, including two playoffs and a runners-up finish in the IPL.
Under Shreyas Iyer's captaincy and Ricky Ponting's coaching, PBKS made it to the finals after a decade in the IPL and finished runners-up last season. However, he seems further motivated to seal the cup this season for the first time, as he sets a record of being undefeated after the first six games of an IPL season.
