What Shreyas Iyer has done in the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy is called hitting the right blow at the right time. He scored a stormy century and picked the day before the IPL auction. The mega auction of IPL 2025 will be held on November 24, and before that, on November 23, the Mumbai captain scored an explosive century in the match against Goa in the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy. Ahead of the IPL 2025 auction, Shreyas Iyer’s stormy century is also seen as an audition for his captaincy.
Iyer gave audition, now who will choose the captain?
Iyer was the captain of KKR in the last IPL season. Under his captaincy, KKR also won the title of the last IPL season. But ahead of the IPL 2025 auction, the Kolkata franchise did not retain Iyer. Now, if Iyer has entered the auction without being retained, then money will definitely rain down on him. This is also possible because Shreyas Iyer, apart from being a batsman, is also a captaincy option. And many teams need captains in IPL 2025.
Shreyas Iyer scored a century in 47 balls, how many sixes did he hit?
Anyway, it has become a question as to why Iyer’s century is an audition for captaincy ahead of the IPL 2025 auction. Now we only know the full story of his stormy innings. Shreyas Iyer, captain of Mumbai in the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy, scored a century against Goa while batting at number 3. He scored 130 runs off 57 balls. Iyer’s innings, played at a strike rate of 228.07, included 10 sixes and 11 fours. During this period, however, he completed his century in just 47 balls.
