Shreyas Iyer<\/a> barely caught any sleep after his match-winning 87* against Mumbai Indians in Ahmedabad, a knock that propelled Punjab Kings into their first IPL final in 11 years. Yet, despite the historic feat, the Punjab captain admitted he\u2019s still not at peace, with the ultimate test awaiting\u2014Sunday’s final against Royal Challengers Bengaluru at the Narendra Modi Stadium.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With crucial support from Josh Inglis, Priyansh Arya, and Nehal Wadhera, Iyer masterfully guided Punjab to chase down 204 with an over to spare in the second Qualifier. Reflecting on his mindset, Iyer revealed he had entered a focused \u201czone\u201d well before the game began\u2014a mental space that remained intact until his last blow sealed the victory.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWhen I say that I am in the zone, it starts before the match\u2014from the warm-up to how you plan and approach the game,\u201d Shreyas<\/a> Iyer explained in a pre-final press conference. <\/a>\u201cOnce I was locked in, I knew how I wanted to rally the players. They did a phenomenal job in restricting Mumbai to 203. I had a clear plan for that red-soil surface. We got a great start, and once my eyes were set, it was all about flow and backing my instincts. I\u2019m happy, but not content.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
