Shreyas Iyer has been phenomenal in all formats after being dropped from the Board of Control for Cricket (BCCI) central contract. Iyer made a stunning comeback by smashing two centuries in the Ranji Trophy and led Mumbai to win the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy in 2024-25.
Gautam Gambhir hinted that Shreyas Iyer could be called up to the India Test squad, as the team management is open to accepting players who are in good form and can contribute to the team.
"Look, anyone can be called. Anyone can be called if they are in good form. We could only pick 18, and the chairman-selector has already answered that question. For me, I think it's always about being open to people who are in good form and who can come and deliver." Gautam Gambhir said in the press conference.
Will Shreyas Iyer get a chance in between the England tour?
Shreyas Iyer has not been given a place in the Indian Test team for the England tour, so he won't be playing the initial matches, but if any player gets injured during the Test series, then Iyer might be called up.
The India team might lack experience in the England tour after Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli’s retirement, and Iyer’s experience will be crucial for him to earn a recall.
