Shreyas Iyer Returns as Captain: Shreyas Iyer was made the captain of India A.

New Delhi. Recently, a lot of news came out about the Indian cricket team’s star batsman Shreyas Iyer. After being kept out of the Asia Cup team, many veterans had questioned the selectors. Mumbai batsman Shreyas Iyer was ignored for the England Test tour between June and August. Now the BCCI has appointed him the captain of India A team. Later this month, Australia will play two first class matches against A.

The team also includes Nitish Kumar Reddy who is recovering from a knee injury in England. Wicketkeeper Dhruv Jurael will play the role of vice-captain for two four-day matches. These matches will be played at Ekana Stadium in Lucknow. KL Rahul and Mohammad Siraj, who recently been India’s star in the Anderson-Tendulkar Trophy, will return to action before the domestic Test season. Will start from the second match starting from 23 September. Famous Krishna, Sai Sudarshan, Abhimanyu Ishwaran and N Jagadisin have also been selected after their recent participation in England tour.

30 -year -old Iyer last participated in India’s Test setup during the domestic series against England in 2024. Since then, four have missed the Test series. After a poor start in the Dalip Trophy last season, Iyer showed 480 runs in five matches in the Ranji Trophy. This includes two centuries and his first first class double century.

Despite being out of the Test and T20I teams for a long time, Iyer has set the chart of the white ball on fire. Earlier this year, during the winning Champions Trophy at UAE, he was the top scorer for India and also dominated the IPL with more than 175 strike rates in its first 600+ run season.
