Shreyas Iyer ready to bat anywhere for the team
India’s dynamic batter Shreyas Iyer has cemented his reputation as a reliable and bankable player for the team following his stellar performance at the 2023 ODI World Cup, where he plundered 530 runs in 11 innings. Meanwhile, Iyer has expressed his readiness to take on the middle-order responsibility for the team. He was one of the four Indian players to score more than 500 runs at the ODI World Cup 2023.
“Absolutely. I’m flexible and ready to bat anywhere in the batting order. KL (Rahul) and I played that important role in the middle during the World Cup. We had a great season together. It was just the last bit (the final) that we couldn’t execute the way we wanted to. It will be a proud moment for me if I were to be picked in the Champions Trophy (side) to represent the country," Iyer was quoted as saying by ESPNCricinfo.
Iyer’s heroics in the World Cup was instrumental in India’s campaign at the World Cup. Meanwhile, India’s squad for the Champions Trophy 2025 is likely to be announced in the coming days and Iyer is expected to be included in the squad. He last played for India during the three-match ODI series against Sri Lanka in August 2024.
