The comeback story of India batter Shreyas Iyer has been nothing short of exceptional. After producing a sensational campaign in the ICC World Cup 2023, where he slammed over 500 runs, he faced a massive downfall and had issues with the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI).
Iyer then returned to domestic cricket and staged a dominating comeback. He shined with the bat for Mumbai in all three formats as he scored consistently and then ended up winning the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024 as well as a captain for Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR).
Iyer was the leading run-getter for India in the ICC Champions Trophy 2025. The batter slammed 243 runs in five games. The right-hander has been brilliant at No 4 for India, as he has an average of around 50 (48.22) after 70 ODIs, which speaks a lot about the impact he has made.
The perception was created or maybe I was typecast - Shreyas Iyer
While talking about the critics, Shreyas Iyer said that maybe he was typecast but he always was aware of his abilities and strengths. Speaking to PTI, he said:
For now, I am living in the moment to fulfill my roles and responsibilities with Punjab Kings - Shreyas Iyer
Iyer was also asked whether he is thinking of getting selected for the England Test series. He said that he is focused on staying present and will be trying to fulfill his roles and responsibilities with Punjab Kings. He added:
Iyer has been appointed as the captain of the Punjab Kings. The right-hander will be keen to take his new franchise to title win and carry on his good form.
