Royal Challengers Bangalore will be the first side to target Shreyas Iyer as they will be in need of a captain for the IPL 2022. Virat Kohli who has been leading the side for a long time now has decided to step down from captaining the franchise and will now focus on his batting. AB De Villiers will also not be part of the RCB setup anymore as he has decided to retire from all forms of cricket recently.

Shreyas Iyer having captained the Delhi outfit for two years has shown a lot of captaincy potential. He can also provide great support for Kohli in the batting lineup. He is a brilliant fielder and he can play at number three or number four which will be a huge relief for Kohli at the top.

Ahmedabad franchise was one of the two new teams that will be competing in the IPL 2022 in the 10 team tournament and they were bought by the CVC Capitals. Their future is still unknown as the owners have been involved with betting. However, they will be allowed to retain 3 players ahead of the mega auction.

If Delhi releases Shreyas Iyer, then it is going to be a big boost for the Ahmedabad franchise as they can make him the leader straight away. His past records as a captain have been immaculate and Ahmedabad will not get a better choice than him.
