IPL 2022: Five teams who can buy Shreyas Iyer at mega auction

There are reports floating around that KL Rahul does not want to be retained by Punjab Kings. That means he will be in the auction pool and there will be a number of teams going after him. In that case, PBKS will look for a captain and who better than Iyer for that role. (Source: Twitter)

Not to forget, Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) had two bad back-to-back seasons in IPL and the experiment of giving captaincy to Kane Williamson is not working. The fact that an overseas batter is their captain disturbs the balance of the side as well. That is why they may look for an Indian captain for the upcoming season. And Iyer is someone they will surely target. (Source: Twitter)

Virat Kohli has quit RCB captaincy but he will continue to play for the franchise. However, RCB need a good captain who can win thet elusive title. Iyer can be a good choice. With him and Kohli in the middle order, it will boost their batting as well. (Source: Twitter)

Ahmedabad are a new team and like Lucknow, will be looking to target a captaincy material at the auction. Shreyas Iyer could be that man. He is a good T20 top-order batter and has IPL captaincy experience behind him. (Source: Twitter)

Lucknow franchise is one of the two new IPL teams that will take part in IPL 2022. They are looking for a new captain and someone like Shreyas Iyer, who has captain Delhi Capitals to a final once, would be a great buy. (Source: Twitter)
