No.3 is an important role in a T20 side. This player has to either deal with pacers in the powerplay or must go hard after the spinners in the middle overs. Hence, he must be equipped to do both roles. Here, we take a look at the list of three teams with the best No.3 batter for IPL 2025.
1) Lucknow Super Giants
Seeing the squad of LSG, Rishabh Pant is likely to play at No.3. He also did the job for India at No.3 in the 2024 T20 World Cup.
Hence, LSG will have one of the best choices for this role. Therefore, they get a rank on this list.
2) Punjab Kings will have great options for the No.3 batter for IPL 2025
PBKS is one of the teams with the best No.3 batter for IPL 2025. It is most likely Shreyas Iyer’s job to play at No.3 for IPL 2025.
If he is not going to do this role, someone like Marcus Stoinis could also get a chance. Hence, PBKS will have some good choices here.
3) Mumbai Indians
It will be interesting to see who comes in at No.3 for MI. It is likely to be Tilak Varma. He is in top form and hence, MI has a good rank here.
Tilak does well against the spinners and is now improving his game against the pacers. Hence, he is featured on this list.
