India will return to international action at the Asia Cup 2025 after a month-long break that followed their five-match Test series in England, which ended in a 2-2 draw. India’s T20I captain Suryakumar Yadav has cleared his fitness test and will be available to lead the side in the upcoming eight-team tournament.
Shreyas Iyer offers composure against spin and valuable leadership experience, having guided two IPL franchises to consecutive finals. His inclusion would strengthen India’s batting lineup. The final call is likely to come down to Sundar or Iyer.
Shreyas Iyer Has Been Absent From T20Is Since December 2023
Shreyas Iyer has been absent from T20Is since December 2023, which has raised eyebrows. The 30-year-old had a stellar IPL 2025 season with Punjab Kings (PBKS), scoring 604 runs at a strike rate of over 175 and guiding the franchise to their first final in more than a decade.
Overall, Iyer has played 51 T20Is, amassing 1,104 runs at an average of just over 30, with eight fifties to his name. Since Gautam Gambhir took charge as India’s head coach in mid-2024, he has been overlooked for the shortest format.
India May Opt for an All-Rounder; Washington Sundar a Strong Contender
Sundar proved his worth in the Anderson-Tendulkar Trophy, rescuing the team with crucial lower-order runs and taking key wickets. He was also part of India’s ICC Champions Trophy triumph in Dubai earlier this year, showing he can deliver on similar pitches.
