"Shreyas Iyer Looked Troubled": Former India Star On Omission From Remaining Tests vs England
Former India batter Aakash Chopra believes that Shreyas Iyer looked troubled and needs to improve on his technique to face short ball after he was dropped from the remaining three-match Test squads. Shreyas struggled in the first two Test matches against England as he amassed scores of 35, 13, 27 and 29. Even in the two-match Test series against South Africa, Iyer struggled to muster up runs as he scored 41 runs in both matches. "If we are to believe sources, he was available for selection but was left out. And there are reasons for this. He has not scored in the previous 12-13 innings and the way he was batting was not good. It's ok to get out on bouncers, but the way he was trying to tackle them showed that he was not convincing," Chopra said while hosting JioCinema's sports show '#AAKASHVANI.
