PBKS Captain in IPL 2025
PBKS captain in IPL 2025: With aiming for a maiden title, Punjab Kings will be looking to build a brand new squad as they have made only two retentions. There has been no proper leadership in the team over the last two seasons.
They have been into finals on only one occasion in 2014 after topping the points table in the season, but lost the finals match to KKR by 3 wickets.
Despite various high profile players Adam Gilchrist, Kumar Sangakkara and Yuvraj Singh, the team failed to clinch a title in these years.
With only two uncapped players retained, the franchise will go for a leader in the IPL 2025 mega auction to lead the side during the upcoming season. However, Shreyas Iyer has been named as the PBKS captain for IPL 2025.
