Dubai: Indian cricketer Shreyas Iyer is currently off from his cricketing duties after having led the Punjab Kings to the Indian Premier League final.

But instead of taking his time off relaxing or going on a holiday, Iyer was found at a racing event at the Dubai Autodrome.

The cricketer part of the Mumbai Falcons team stunned fans as he hit the track donning a racing suit with his signature No 96 on the back.

After wrapping up the IPL, Iyer was seen representing the Mumbai Falcons in the Mumbai T20 League.

Iyer is also representing the team in racing, which promotes young racing sensations from Asia.

The Punjab skipper had a successful IPL season having scored 605 runs and led the side into the finals. Despite this, he was overlooked by the team management for the five-match Test series.
