Only Shreyas Iyer’s ‘A’ game against MI can save PBK in qualifier 2, need to improve the current record

IPL 2025: Shreyas Iyer is undergoing one of his best IPL season, but still he does not boast a great record vs. MI.
PBKS captain Shreyas Iyer, certainly his team’s batting is the backbone. Slowly and quietly, he has scored an average of 46.90 in 15 matches, which will soon become his best IPL season. But his 2 against RCB in Qualifier 1, only could reduce his confidence, especially when now Punjab Qualifier 2 was facing an MI, who has speed on him.
Hardik Pandya’s people were clinical after scoring 228 last night, and defeated GT by 20 runs, to signal, it would make a brave effort by PBK – who are in the playoffs after 11 years, to make the final. But here is also a challenge, Shreyas will have to score big .. and his record against champs five times is not great.
In 19 matches, he has scored an average of 27 on an average of 414 runs and has a strike rate of 118, with only two half -centuries in his name. It is quite low what he has managed in 131 overall matches. 3643 runs on an average strike-rate of 33.73 and 132. The team also stars Prabasimran Singh, who has 517 runs against his name in IPL 2025, followed by Priyash Arya on 431 and Nehal Vaidera in 306-but undoubtedly came to their best stakes.
Pbks full squad: Nehal Wadera, Haranur Singh, Shreyas Iyer, Mushir Khan, Payla Avinash, Prabhasimran Singh, Vishnu Vinod, Josh Engangis, Marcus Stoinis, Praveen Dubey, Priyanash Arya, Azmatullah Umra, Harpari, Harpeet Bruf, Harpan Yuzvendra Chahal, Arshadeep Singh, Jeevier Barhtalat, Kuldeep Sean, Kuldeep Sean, Vyasak, Yash Thakur, Mitchell Owen, Kyle Jaimison
