The IPL 2025 auction will be held this month. Shreyas Iyer can be a big surprise in this mega auction this year. He made Kolkata Knight Riders champions as captain at last year. Even then, KKR did not retain him this year. Now there is only one question, which team will take him in the auction?
Although Sunil Gavaskar gave this answer earlier. Gavaskar said, “I think, KKR did not deal with him for money. That’s why they didn’t hold him. Kolkata did not want to pay the money that Shreyas wanted. That’s why Shreyas is going to be auctioned this time.”
KKR did not retain Shreyas Iyer this year
Shreyas was the captain of Delhi Capitals before becoming the captain of Kolkata. He left Delhi when he was replaced by Rishabh Pant as captain. This time Delhi did not hold the pants. Gavaskar think that Shreyas can return to his old team. He said, “I think Kolkata will jump for Shreyas in the auction. But I don’t know how much they want to pay. Along with KKR, Delhi will also want to take Shreyas. I think Delhi will eventually buy Shreyas.”
