Iyer: The Next Big Thing or Just Another Village Captain?
Badrinath rates Iyer just below Dhoni and Rohit,does he deserve it?
Shreyas Iyer’s captaincy is getting some serious love, but is he really in the same league as MS Dhoni or Rohit Sharma? Former cricketer Subramaniam Badrinath has put Iyer just a notch below the legends, praising his leadership after guiding Kolkata Knight Riders to IPL glory in 2024 and then a runner-up finish with Punjab Kings in 2025. But let’s be real: does that really make him a generational talent?
Leading a side to the final is great, but we’ve seen plenty of pie chuckers in captaincy roles before. Iyer’s got the chops, but can he produce when the pressure's on? With the IPL 2026 season looming, fans are buzzing,can Iyer step up and prove he’s more than just a flash in the pan?
As the season approaches, all eyes will be on Iyer to see if he can elevate his game and cement his status among the greats. Or will he flop like a fish out of water?
Get ready for a season of drama, folks,will Iyer rise to the occasion or leave us all thinking he’s just another domestic captain?
