Indian team’s star batsman Shreyas Iyer has been in the news for some time now. Recently, the Board of Control for Cricket in India had made a big disclosure regarding the central contracts of Indian players in which Shreyas Iyer and Ishan Kishan were not included.

BCCI believed that it is very important for these players to play in Ranji Trophy. Former Indian batsman Sunil Gavaskar has presented his side regarding Shreyas Iyer. There were also reports that Shreyas Iyer had already announced to the team that he was not fit to play in the quarter-final match of Ranji Trophy, but despite this, the trainer of the National Cricket Academy confirmed this. He was completely fit.

Sunil Gavaskar has given his stand regarding this. According to Sunil Gavaskar, all players struggle with this pain and no trainer can tell how much trouble the player is facing.

Sunil Gavaskar wrote in his column on Mid Day that, ‘Shreyas Iyer had missed the quarter-finals but he had also told the team management that he was having back pain and if he batted for a long time, he would have to face pain. You may have to face more problems.

Trainer cannot take decisions regarding players’ pain: Sunil Gavaskar

Sunil Gavaskar further said, ‘However, the trainer of the National Cricket Academy said that Shreyas Iyer is completely fit and he can participate in the match. This thing did not go in Iyer’s favor. Players suffer a lot of pain and no trainer can take a decision on this matter.

Regarding Ishan Kishan, Sunil Gavaskar wrote, ‘Nobody knows why Kishan did not play for Jharkhand in Ranji Trophy. Iyer had participated in Ranji Trophy before the Test series against England but no one knows anything about Kishan.
