Ravi Shastri claimed that Shreyas will get better as captain as the tournament progresses

Ravi Shastri claimed that Shreyas will get better as a captain as the tournament progresses. Shastri said on Star Sports that captaincy is a natural thing for Shreyas Iyer. Look at his aggressive captaincy, you would not think that he is leading KKR for the first time. He seems to have been leading the team for their last three or four seasons and that is reflected in his clarity of thought. It is clear in his mind what kind of cricket he needs to play as a batsman. Also, he knows that as a captain he has to take his team to the playoffs and then win the title.

Former West Indies cricketer Ian Bishop also supported Shastri on the issue

Shastri said that I liked the way he spoke in the pre and post-match press conference and it shows that he is very clear about the plan. I am sure he will come a long way as captain. At the same time, former West Indies cricketer Ian Bishop also supported Shastri on this issue. Bishop backed Shreyas as captain and said that he has a good mind and also has the support and support of some experienced players in KKR. Bishop said, “I think it is possible for Shreyas to make a strong comeback with his team, despite having suffered two defeats in a row. When he became the captain of Delhi Capitals, he went on getting better and better season after season. He will take some time to establish a foothold in KKR but he will definitely take his team forward.
