KKR now faces Punjab Kings who have won both their opening matches. Punjab is captained by the same Shreyas Iyer who led KKR to the title in 2024 under his captaincy. The team is also having to suffer the consequences of not retaining Shreyas Iyer. Despite being in poor form in T20, Ajinkya Rahane, who was brought in as captain, silenced the critics to some extent by scoring the most runs, but questions are being raised on the team’s decisions like making Abhishek Nair the head coach in place of Chandrakant Pandit.
