While the internet enjoys the viral interaction, Iyer remains fully focused on an important phase of IPL 2026 with Punjab Kings (PBKS). The franchise’s playoff hopes are hanging by a thread after a dramatic dip in form during the second half of the season. PBKS had once looked like genuine title contenders and even topped the points table earlier in the campaign. However, a string of poor results has pushed them down to fifth place with 13 points from 13 matches.

Their upcoming clash against Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) has now turned into a virtual knockout fixture. A defeat would officially end Punjab’s hopes of qualifying for the playoffs but despite the team’s struggles, Iyer has continued to contribute consistently with the bat. The right-hander has scored 397 runs in 12 innings at an average above 44 while maintaining a strike rate of over 160 this season.

Once the IPL concludes, Iyer will quickly switch focus to international cricket. The Indian batter has already been named as vice-captain for India’s upcoming ODI series against Afghanistan national cricket team. The three-match ODI series is scheduled to begin in Dharamsala on June 14, with Iyer expected to play a key leadership role alongside the senior core of the Indian side.
