Shreyas Iyer Has Always Backed His Players: Arshdeep Singh
He concluded by keeping his opinion on Shreyas Iyer, the newly appointed captain for Punjab Kings in IPL 2025. Iyer already scored his career-best in the IPL in his first game against GT and will look to go big against the Super Giants.
 "I have played with Iyer before, under his captaincy in the Duleep Trophy, and I really enjoyed it. He always backed his players and gave them the freedom to express themselves. What I've noticed here is that his approach remains the same — he doesn't impose rigid instructions but encourages players to trust their skills and play for the team. He promotes a selfless approach, assuring full backing to the players. I truly admire this mindset, and as players, we will do our best to support him and help the team win back-to-back titles," Arshdeep concluded saying.
