00:00All right, breaking news coming in now. Shreyas Iyer has a breezed all-time IPL record being bagged for
00:06a 26.75 whopping crore rupees by Punjab Kings. Shreyas Iyer, Keshav, how do you read it?
00:24So it looks like the Punjab Kings are on the buying spree.
00:27They have just bought this guy, the left-hand passer Ashdeep Singh for a whopping price and
00:34now there is Shreyas Iyer in their fold. When the bid was going on Shreyas Iyer,
00:41Delhi capitals and Punjab were going neck to neck. It was all about appointing the captain.
00:48Now it is clear that Punjab Kings has bought not only just a batsman but a captain. The way
00:54Shreyas Iyer had led Delhi capitals, the way Shreyas Iyer had led Kolkata Knight Riders,
01:00there was no wonder that this guy is a super buy. I am all for him.
01:05Very recently, I mean until yesterday or day before he scored a century also in one of the
01:09domestic cricket leagues. Yeah, he hit a tune. Yesterday we were discussing like this guy is
01:14going to maybe surpass Rishabh Pant also in valuation because he can bat in top order,
01:21he is a slow right arm, baller as well, leading the team with cool head, someone like Dhoni.
01:28He is a good reader of game as well. And his decisions during the last season with KKR was
01:35superb. The way he and Gautam Gambhir promoted Sunil Narayan to open the innings.
01:41Winning team was also there in KKR. Fantastic. So Shreyas Iyer deserves.
01:46And the best thing is that again the highest selling price has come to an Indian cricketer.
01:54Last time he went to Starks. Absolutely, he went to Mitchell Starks for Rs. 7-10 crores.
02:01One final word Keshav, Shreyas Iyer is one name that had created some sort of flutter also if I
02:06am not wrong in the 2023 World Cup, ISSU World Cup. It was being said that Rohit Sharma is
02:11definitely backing him but his performance was not up to the mark. But later he delivered
02:16but it was too little too late I guess. I mean, I don't believe around the gossips
02:24made around Shreyas Iyer. Unfortunately, he is out of the central contract of BCCI as well.
02:32But this guy has proven his mettle. So there is no much fuss about him. He knows what he has got
02:38and what he needs to do. And he has proved it multiple times, not just once.
02:44So his batting is excellent. And it is a good thing that he is not all around with his spoken
02:51words. Whenever there is a chance, he plays and gives a solid reply to the opponents.
02:58If we talk about his temperament, he is quite a jujaru. He is on field. If you play with a team
03:02like Australia or South Africa, the sledging, nowadays there is a lot of sledging in a friendly
03:06way. But Shreyas Iyer, our young Turks, Rishabh Pant and Arshadeep Unnia also give a solid response.
03:12This time, we will see how he performs in the IPL. Do you have anything to say?
03:16Shreyas Iyer is a perfect buy for Punjab. Punjab needs to have someone like Shreyas Iyer and Rishabh
03:25Pant. And eventually, Punjab was the only team who has the heaviest wallet. So, two superb
03:34buys have been made for Punjab. Now we have to see how cleverly they bid. This time Punjab is
03:40exploring. I think it has been 17 seasons and Punjab has never come on top bearing the first
03:46season. This time around, they are not leaving any stone unturned to turn the table.
03:57Next team that is making all the purchases is Gujarat. Titans will come back in another video
04:01and discuss. Kakhi Sorabada and Josh Butler have gone to Gujarat. At what prices? Watch the next
04:06video. Don't miss out. Log on to OneIndia.com for more updates.
