Shreyas Iyer is on fire in IPL 2026, scoring three consecutive half-centuries and boasting a strike rate of 187.96. Former Indian cricketer Ravichandran Ashwin believes his standout performances make him a must-pick for India's T20I squad. Ashwin praises Iyer's intimidating presence at the crease, saying it sends bowlers into a frenzy.

Ashwin elaborates on how Iyer has transformed his game, especially against short balls, turning potential weaknesses into scoring opportunities. He’s not just racking up runs; he’s evolving into a player who takes on challenges head-on, which is inspiring for upcoming cricketers. Iyer’s ability to pull Jasprit Bumrah for six shows just how far he’s come.

Under Iyer’s captaincy, Punjab Kings are thriving, currently topping the points table with four wins from five matches. Ashwin highlights how Iyer fosters a positive, brotherly atmosphere within the team, enhancing his leadership. His batting brilliance is attracting attention and could soon earn him a place back in the national squad.

As Iyer continues to shine, cricket fans are left wondering just how high he can soar in this IPL season. Can he maintain this form and lead PBKS to glory?
