2 min readMay 17, 2026 08:51 PM IST Punjab Kings captain Shreyas Iyer tried to remain optimistic despite his side crashing to a sixth consecutive defeat in IPL 2026 after the 23-run loss to Royal Challengers Bengaluru in Dharamshala on Sunday. But even while speaking about staying mentally strong ahead of the final league phase game against Lucknow Super Giants, Iyer admitted that he would remain positive and maintain a strong attitude. “I’m always positive irrespective of the results. It doesn’t dictate how my personality is and I always approach with a strong attitude,” Iyer said after the defeat. “I’m not someone who dwells too much in the past. This is over, this is gone.

It is now regarded as the digital pulse of Bengal’s capital city and is riding the crest of a remarkable IT wave that has earned it the sobriquet Silicon Valley of the East. While many of the IT firms had set up show in the previous decade, the zone is experiencing a second boom.
