Shreyas Iyer was on Wednesday appointed captain of Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR), ahead of the IPL 2022 season. KKR bought Shreyas for Rs 12.25 crore in the recently held IPL mega auction in Bengaluru. Shreyas has in the past captained the Delhi Capitals (DC) franchise and led the team to its maiden IPL final in the 2020 season.

An injury forced him to sit out of the initial phase of the 2021 season, which saw Rishabh Pant standing in as captain of DC. Shreyas returned for the UAE leg of the season but DC decided to retain Pant as captain. Shreyas was thereafter not retained by the franchise, which led him to be picked by KKR in the auction. Shreyas takes over from Eoin Morgan, under whose captaincy KKR had reached the final of IPL 2021.
