Shreyas Iyer’s performance and celebration after Punjab Kings’ win over Mumbai Indians on June 1 was pure joy. He played a crucial unbeaten 87 to help PBKS reach the IPL 2025 final for the first time in 11 years, marking his third time leading different teams to the final. The team’s official video captured a heartwarming moment where Shreyas celebrated with his mother, and his sister Shresta hilariously mimicked his signature swag walk perfectly, adding a fun family touch to the victory mood.
Shreyas spoke about how Punjab’s positive environment and support were key factors in his comfort and success. Despite being a big auction buy, he didn’t focus on the bidding but rather on finding a good mindset and atmosphere to perform in. He credited the team management and teammates for fostering a positive environment that helps him thrive.
Looking ahead to the final against RCB, Shreyas is keeping his focus on staying relaxed and in the moment rather than overthinking the big game. He stressed that while reaching the final is a big achievement, the job is only half done. His plan is to rest, rejuvenate, and maintain a strong mindset to be ready for the ultimate challenge. This calm, focused attitude coupled with his outstanding form makes him a key player to watch in the final.
