Shreyas Iyer is one of the most talented young batsmen in Indian cricket. Iyer started playing for the Mumbai Ranji Team at the age of 19 and was soon picked by the Delhi Daredevils in the IPL. Shreyas Iyer was the emerging player of the season for IPL 2015. Since then, Iyer has come a very long way. He had also taken up leadership duties for the Delhi Capitals from IPL 2018 onwards. Here is a look at the top 3 IPL franchises that will want him in IPL 2022 Mega Auction:

Kolkata Knight Riders will want Shreyas Iyer:

The Kolkata Knight Riders are looking for a skipper in the absence of Eoin Morgan. It also happens that Kolkata always has had a great middle-order young Indian batman. They previously have had Manoj Tiwary, Lakshmiratan Shukla, Rahul Tripathi, Dinesh Kartik. This record makes Iyer’s chances stronger. Shreyas Iyer can also take the captaincy role for the Knight Riders. Iyer can play spin well and will love to bat on the Eden Gardens pitch.

Sunrisers Hyderabad:

Sunrisers Hyderabad will be looking at Shreyas Iyer as well. With a tennis elbow problem, there is a cloud of concern over the availability of Kane Williamson. So, Sunrisers will look at Iyer as a deputy. They also have to fill the void of Manish Pandey. Shreyas is a more attacking and more technically sound batsman and can fit the role very well. He has the experience of leading a young team. Sunrisers can utilize Iyer as a floater as well. Shreyas can take a charge of the spinners whenever required and can accelerate the run rate.

Ahmedabad Franchise will want Shreyas Iyer:

The most-likely pick for the Ahmedabad franchise is Shreyas Iyer. He has a stage set to become captain of a newly formed fresh team. Ahmedabad will be looking to associate their team with a young and talented player and this is exactly what Shreyas offers. Iyer also brings along with him a huge fanbase. Shreyas Iyer and his social media presence have gained popularity. The Ahmedabad wicket that has favored pacers will suit Iyer very well. The ball will come on the bat and this is what all Mumbai batsmen love.
