Shreyas Iyer's big statement ahead of the Test series in England
Shreyas Iyer: The Indian selectors have not included Shreyas Iyer in the squad for the T20 series to be played against Afghanistan. In such a situation, he is now playing for the Mumbai team in the Ranji Trophy. He is preparing for the England Test series. Even after the Andhra match, he continued to practice batting with the local bowlers in the central wicket nets of the BKC Stadium in Mumbai for a long time. He made a big statement about his game.
Shreyas Iyer made this big statement
Iyer was recommended by the selectors and Indian team management to play his game in preparation for the upcoming Test series against England. Iyer told Cricbuzz that I will play aggressively regardless of the situation. If you bowl negatively, if you bowl confidently and defensively in the beginning. You want to score runs and you need to get your team to a certain point. That was my mindset and that’s what I went with. I was happy (with the performance), regardless of the score. Let us tell you that he had scored a solid 48 runs in the first innings against Andhra.
While speaking on the field, Iyer further said that to be honest, it is not a training track. But otherwise it was just about my match fitness and staying on the field for as long as possible. That was my main focus because, especially after my injury, it became difficult for me to stay on the wicket and in the outfield for long periods of time. So after five years it was a great exercise for me.
Was a flop in the South Africa series
Team India played its last series against South Africa. Shreyas Iyer was a flop in this series. Shreyas Iyer failed to make an impact in this series with scores of 31, 6, 0 and 4. However, Team India has to play the Test series at home against England and Shreyas Iyer's performance in India was quite good. He scored three half-centuries and a century in 11 innings. In such a situation he could get a chance against England.
