Iyer-Chahal duo in same IPL squad: Fans react on social media

The IPL 2025 auction has not only made headlines for record-breaking bids but also brought a delightful surprise for fans: Shreyas Iyer and Yuzvendra Chahal are now teammates. As Iyer joins the same squad as Chahal, social media is abuzz with throwbacks to their iconic fun moments, including hilarious Instagram reels, witty banter, and appearances with Chahal.

Auction drama reunites the dynamic duo

Shreyas Iyer’s ₹26.75 crore move in the IPL 2025 mega auction was already the talk of the town, making him the most expensive Indian player before Rishabh Pant’s ₹27 crore deal. Now, with Iyer and Chahal on the same team, fans are doubly excited. Yuzvendra Chahal, too, fetched a massive ₹18 crore, highlighting his value as a match-winning spinner. Chahal, a seasoned spinner and master of on-field mind games, has been a crowd favorite for his witty off-field personality as well.

Iyer and Chahal’s chemistry goes beyond cricket. Fans fondly remember their fun challenges, such as Chahal’s playful trolling of Iyer’s dance moves and Dhanashree’s involvement in choreographed reels. With their reunion, fans are hoping for more lighthearted moments off the field, adding to the excitement of their on-field performances.

With their camaraderie already well-established, the IPL 2025 season could see a perfect mix of intense cricket and hilarious antics.

The big question now is: will this dynamic duo create as many unforgettable moments on the field as they did off it? Fans are eagerly waiting to find out.
