Seems like #KKR have found their captain… Unlikely that Iyer will be the most expensive player in this auction. #IPLMegaAuction2022

KKR shelling out Rs 12.25 crore on Shreyas Iyer must be bad news for Eoin Morgan's hopes of an IPL contract: Iyer likely to captain and KKR's remaining budget has already taken a major hit

Shreyas Iyer sold to Kolkata Knight Riders for 12.25 crore.

Woah! At 12.25, KKR will be very happy bagging Shreyas Iyer. I must admit, I thought it would go much higher.

Shreyas Iyer to play for Kolkata Knight Riders in IPL 2022 at a whopping 12.25cr.

Two brilliant pick ups at excellent prices for KKR at the IPL auctions. Shreyas Iyer and Pat Cummins are steals at their prices and both possible captains.
