3 players PBKS may target as captain

Under the direction of head coach Ricky Ponting, PBKS will look for a new skipper after keeping just two players from the IPL 2025 retentions. Three participants PBKS can want to be the captain.

Shreyas Iyer 

Shreyas Iyer, the IPL 2024 champion captain, was not signed by KKR for the next IPL season. KKR won their third IPL championship under Shreyas Iyer's captaincy, and PBKS may try to spend a fortune to get Iyer for the 2025 tournament.

Rishabh Pant

Ricky Ponting has previously collaborated with Rishabh Pant at the Delhi Capitals. He may persuade the PBKS thought tank to bid for Pant in the IPL super auction with Ponting coaching.

David Warner

Sunrisers Hyderabad won the IPL championship under David Warner's leadership, demonstrating his ability to guide a group to triumph. Warner, who is renowned for his aggressive batting and keen cricketing intellect, might give PBKS a much-needed boost of energy.
