“I don’t see anything for Shreyas Iyer in Tests at the moment”- Big statement by Aakash Chopra
Aakash Chopra and Shreyas Iyer (Pic Source-Twitter) The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) announced the squad for the upcoming Test match against Bangladesh three days ago, in which many players have returned to the team. Left-arm fast bowler Yash Dayal has also been included in the team for the first time. However, one name that was missing from the list was that of Shreyas Iyer. Meanwhile, former Indian cricketer Aakash Chopra has made a big statement about Iyer. The former batsman believes that Iyer will not get a chance to play Test for the next few days. India toured Bangladesh in 2022, Aakash Chopra talked about Iyer’s performance in that series. However, he rightly pointed out that his performance has not been that good since then. Chopra says that for this reason, Iyer may not be thinking much about Test cricket right now. Shreyas Iyer will not get a place in Test cricket right now- Aakash Chopra Aakash Chopra, while answering a question asked by a commentator in a video uploaded on YouTube recently, said, “It is interesting that the last time we beat Bangladesh in Bangladesh, Shreyas Iyer played a very crucial performance in the last match. We won because he played a crucial innings, but since then, the world has changed. I don’t see any prospects for Shreyas Iyer in Tests at the moment.” Talking about Iyer’s position in the team, Chopra said that there were at least three players from the current setup whom he could think of who would not get a place for the first Test, which shows how far Iyer is in this race. The former cricketer further said, “Whoever is there will not be able to play all the matches. Those who are part of this team, including Sarfaraz, KL Rahul and Dhruv Jurel. I think they themselves will not be able to get into the playing XI. So where will Shreyas Iyer come in this?”

Then he threw a newspaper in front of me and there was a big picture of me on the front page and I said, ‘I am sorry, please don’t ban me.

IPL 2025 Mega Auction: SRH (Sunrisers Hyderabad) will throw these 3 big names out of the team even if they don’t want to
SRH is planning to release these players and bring in new and talented players in the mega auction. Poetry Maran. (Photo Source: Twitter) IPL 2025: These 3 big names will be out of SRH team!: The IPL 2025 mega auction is approaching, and Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) are looking to make some big changes to the team. SRH performed well in 2024 and finished runners-up, but this time they are all set to win the trophy. In this direction, SRH may have to release some top players even if they do not want to. Let’s know about the three key players whom SRH can drop from the team in the IPL 2025 auction. 1. Aidan Markram Aiden Markaram (Photo Source: Twitter) South African batsman Aiden Markram has been a part of SRH for the past few years and has also made a mark as the captain of SRH Eastern Cape in the SA20 League. However, his performance in IPL 2023 and 2024 has disappointed the team. His record as captain has not been good and the SRH management may consider releasing him and give a chance to new and influential players. 2. Bhuvneshwar Kumar Bhuvneshwar Kumar (Pic Source-Twitter) Bhuvneshwar Kumar is one of the most experienced players of SRH and played a vital role in leading SRH to the IPL title in 2016. But his form has declined in recent seasons. Bhuvi’s performance has been relatively weak after the injuries. The team may have to release Bhuvi to give a chance to young bowlers. 3. Marco Jensen Marco Jansen (Image Credit- Twitter) Marco Jensen made it to SRH on the basis of his talent, but his performance did not live up to expectations. Jensen did not perform well with the ball and bat last season, due to which SRH may release him in the auction. Why can SRH release these 3 players? Sunrisers Hyderabad wants to make a strong claim to win the title in IPL 2025. For this, they need balance and young energy in the team. Even though Aiden Markram, Bhuvneshwar Kumar and Marco Jensen have been important players for SRH, the team has to prepare itself for future challenges. Therefore, SRH is planning to release these players and bring in new and talented players in the mega auction. This will not only set a new direction for the team but will also increase SRH’s chances of winning the title.

But now big information is coming out that BCCI has rejected this request. It is being told that BCCI has taken this decision by giving more priority to the Test series against Bangladesh. Why did Jay Shah reject the request to host Women’s T20 World Cup in India? Speaking to the Times of India, Jai Shah said, “They had asked if BCCI could host the Women’s T20 World Cup, but I flatly refused.
