Shreyas Iyer steers PBKS to top-two finish
After the crucial win against Mumbai, Punjab’s skipper, Iyer, credited the victory to the support staff as they are managing players throughout the season.
Every player of Punjab has contributed to the success of the franchise in IPL 2025. Punjab’s coach, Ricky Ponting, also played a key role in Punjab’s winning journey in the ongoing season.
Shreyas Iyer has the highest playoff qualification rate as a skipper compared to most successful IPL skippers, including MS Dhoni and Rohit Sharma. Iyer led his team five out of six seasons in the playoffs, and his success rate is 83.3% for playoff qualification.
| Captain | Playoff Qualifications | Seasons as Captain | Percentage |
| Shreyas Iyer | 5 | 6 | 83.3% |
| MS Dhoni | 12 | 16 | 75% |
| Gautam Gambhir | 5 | 7 | 71.4% |
| Rohit Sharma | 7 | 11 | 63.6% |
| Virat Kohli | 4 | 9 | 44.4% |
Shreyas Iyer and Ricky Ponting transformed the Punjab dressing room and changed the culture in IPL 2025. Punjab are aiming to lift their first-ever IPL trophy.
Punjab Kings seal place in Qualifier 1
After defeating the Mumbai Indians, the Punjab Kings sealed their place in Qualifier 1. Punjab’s bowlers showed a disciplined performance as they restricted Mumbai to just 184 runs.
Priyansh Arya and Josh Inglis’ half-centuries put their team ahead throughout the chase, and they easily chased down the target. Punjab’s opponent in Qualifier 1 will be decided in the last game of the season between Lucknow Super Giants and Royal Challengers Bengaluru.
If RCB win the match, the PBKS vs RCB match will be set for the Qualifier 1, and if RCB lose the last game, then PBKS will take on Gujarat Titans in the Qualifier 1.
Mumbai Indians' hopes are finished after the loss against Punjab, and now they will play the Eliminator.
