New Delhi: Shreyas Iyer’s exclusion from the asia cup squad has sparked Major Debate, with Several Former Players Rallying in His Support. The latest to join them is former India opener aakash chopra, who questioned what more Iyer needs to do to secure a place in the team.

“Shreyas iyer not being there is a big story. Mushtaq Ali Trophy, Played Ranji, and Won the Champions Trophy.

“This is the asia cup team. Don’t Attach the world cup with it if it is 15 t20is after this. The world changes in 15 t20is. If he keeps scoring Runs in ODIS, Suoner or Later, Shreyas Iyer Will Part of the Part of the Team. I have a strong feeling that shreyas iyer will be a part of India’s t20 world cup team, “He added.

One of the standout innings of IPL 2025 came when Iyer Blasted A 41-Ball 87, Steering Punjab to Victory Over the Mumbai Indians in Qualifier 2.

Chopra says that Iyer’s Absense even from the list of five reserve players is surprising.

“Shreyas’ name is not even in the five reserves, and that is surprising. It’s undersrstandable Shivam Dube is there, and Rinku Singh will be given another another chance, which is absolutely par for the course, “Chopra said.

“However, a place should have been created in the reserve players at least, where you have kept dhruv jurel, yashasvi jaiswal and prasidh krishna. Kept it there eater, and that doesn’t send a great signal. The clarity in front of shreyas’ name is completely not there, “He Rekoned.
