The Punjab Kings head coach, a former Australia World Cup-winning skipper, even suggested that Iyer could emerge as a more durable leadership option in the future when the conversation eventually turns beyond current T20I captain Suryakumar Yadav. <\/p>\n<h2>Iyer\u2019s rise: records and captaincy milestones<\/h2>\n<p>Ponting\u2019s praise follows Iyer\u2019s latest landmark in IPL 2026, where he became only the fifth captain in league history to steer a team in 100 matches. He joins an exclusive group that includes MS Dhoni, Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli and Gautam Gambhir.<\/p>\n<p>Iyer has also produced a rare captaincy statistic in IPL history. He is the only skipper to guide three different franchises\u2014Delhi Capitals, Kolkata Knight Riders and Punjab Kings\u2014into an IPL final.<\/p>\n<h2>Punjab Kings\u2019 IPL 2026 rollercoaster<\/h2>\n<p>Despite Iyer\u2019s personal success and growing stature, Ponting acknowledged that Punjab Kings\u2019 campaign has been unstable. After starting the season with a standout run of matches without defeat, PBKS have since suffered a major dip in form, losing six straight games. Their most recent setback came in a 23-run defeat to Royal Challengers Bengaluru, leaving their playoff hopes under significant strain as the league stage moves toward its closing stretch.<\/p>\n<h2>Ponting on Iyer\u2019s growth and leadership potential<\/h2>\n<p>Even with the team\u2019s turbulence, Ponting said he remains highly encouraged by Iyer\u2019s progress as both a batter and a leader. Speaking in the aftermath of the difficult run, he described the India batter as one of the most prominent contenders for future captaincy discussions.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI think there are several contenders, but he\u2019s one of the main contenders as far as I\u2019m concerned. We saw at the start of the tournament just how good a T20 player he is and where he\u2019s at, both on and off the field right now,\u201d Ponting said.<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Ponting believes Iyer has developed a higher level of maturity than at any stage of his career.<\/li>\n<li>He said Iyer looks fully in control of his game, and that maintaining consistency across 14 matches is difficult for both individuals and teams.<\/li>\n<li>Ponting is confident Iyer can respond strongly in the final league game for PBKS, adding that a big score could swing the result in their favour.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>\u201cI think he\u2019s a much more mature player than he\u2019s probably ever been in his whole career. He\u2019s completely on top of his game now. It\u2019s hard to maintain consistency through 14 games, and there are always ups and downs for individuals and teams,\u201d Ponting added.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m pretty sure he\u2019ll bounce back in this last game we\u2019ve got. If he stands up and makes a big score, then we\u2019re a good chance of winning the game,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<h3>Why Ponting is surprised when Iyer is left out<\/h3>\n<p>Ponting also revealed that he has repeatedly been taken aback whenever Iyer is overlooked in India\u2019s T20 plans. He pointed to the selection patterns and suggested that, following the current IPL, Iyer\u2019s name is likely to re-enter the national conversation\u2014both as a batter and as a potential captaincy candidate.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019ve been pretty vocal over the last couple of years that whenever India selects a team and Surya\u2019s not in it, I\u2019m always very surprised. On the back of this IPL, I\u2019m sure he\u2019s one name the selectors will talk about, not just to get back into the side, but also with the captaincy next to his name,\u201d Ponting stated.<\/p>\n<p>He further explained that returning to the India setup requires more than reputation\u2014performances and runs are crucial, and results must be delivered in the right manner.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe thing about Indian cricket is that you don\u2019t just walk back into teams. You\u2019ve got to put a lot of runs on the board and do it in a certain way. His season so far has been very impressive, and his captaincy has been excellent,\u201d Ponting said.<\/p>\n<h2>Sweet spot for a bigger leadership role<\/h2>\n<p>Ponting concluded by suggesting that Iyer seems to be in the ideal phase of his career to take on a larger captaincy responsibility if the opportunity arrives. In his view, the timing is right for Iyer to make the most of any leadership call-up.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI just think he\u2019s in that little sweet spot in his life and career where, if captaincy came his way, then I think he\u2019d make the most of it.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ricky Ponting believes Shreyas Iyer has positioned himself as a leading candidate for India\u2019s next long-term T20 captaincy path.
