Shreyas Iyer’s first season as captain for Punjab Kings ended in heartbreak as they lost to Royal Challengers Bengaluru in the IPL 2025 final. Despite feeling that Punjab had failed to chase a par score, Iyer credited RCB’s bowling performance, particularly Krunal Pandya who was named player of the match. Iyer praised his young PBKS team for their fearless nature throughout the season and expressed confidence in their ability to compete for the title next year. He emphasized that the job is only half done and promised fans that they would bring home the trophy in the future. With a team full of talented youngsters gaining valuable experience, Iyer is determined to lead them back to the final in the upcoming seasons and secure the franchise’s first IPL trophy.
