NEW DELHI: Astrologer Greenstone Lobo’s insights on Shreyas Iyer’s horoscope have sparked intrigue, especially as he steps into his new role as captain of Punjab Kings under the guidance of coach Ricky Ponting.
In his special series,
“StarPlay: Cricket & Astrology
” for TOI Sports, Lobo shared a detailed analysis of Iyer’s astrological strengths and what they could mean for the IPL franchise.
Lobo described Iyer’s horoscope as extraordinary, highlighting the presence of Pluto in the first house—a rare alignment symbolizing exceptional leadership and athletic prowess.
Additionally, the exalted positions of Neptune and Planet X in key houses further indicate glory and strategic brilliance. According to Lobo, this planetary alignment will remain potent until 2036, suggesting a long and impactful career for Iyer.
On the IPL front, Lobo noted that Punjab Kings could be on the brink of transformation. He praised Ricky Ponting’s strategic acumen in bringing Iyer on board, calling their partnership a “fabulous combination”.
With Iyer’s leadership and Ponting’s experience, Lobo believes Punjab Kings have a strong chance of clinching their maiden IPL title in the next few seasons.
Beyond the IPL, Lobo sees immense potential for Iyer in Indian cricket. Despite recent setbacks, including missing major tournaments, he predicts that Iyer’s talent and resilience will soon cement his place in the national team.
Lobo even hinted at Iyer’s potential to contribute to India’s success in upcoming ICC tournaments, particularly in challenging middle-order roles.
Lobo concluded that Iyer’s journey is far from over, with numerous chapters yet to unfold. Whether it’s winning IPL titles or delivering match-winning performances for India, the stars seem aligned for Shreyas Iyer to achieve remarkable feats in the years to come.
