Ponting Believes Test Snub Fueled Iyer's Hunger for Success
The Statesman Siliguri
|June 03, 2025
Former Australia skipper and Punjab Kings head coach Ricky Ponting, who shares a great bond with Shreyas Iyer, said he was "gutted" after the latter was overlooked by the BCCI selectors for the upcoming England tour where India is supposed to play five Tests, starting June 20.
Ponting, however, felt Iyer handled the snub maturely and responded well by scoring runs and leading the Kings into the IPL final against Royal Challengers Bangalore.
"I actually was gutted... but he's accepted that really well and he's moved on. He's just got that real hunger in his eyes to do well every time that he plays for us here and wants to win games of cricket and wants to evolve and develop into the best leader and captain that he can be," Ponting told The ICC Review.
Iyer was one of India's best performers during their run to the finals in the ICC World Cup 2023, and was the side's leading run-scorer at the ICC Champions Trophy event at the start of this year.
