Shreyas Iyer is set to be back after a long break. Following the ODI World Cup, Iyer snubbed off his BCCI Central Contract. The reason? Shreyas Iyer failed to play domestic matches despite being asked to. Both he and Ishan Kishan didn’t get their central contract. But Iyer continued his heroics and guided Kolkata Knight Riders to lift the IPL 2024 title.
And now in the Guatam Gambhir era, Iyer received a call back in the ODI series against Sri Lanka. And the India Cricket Team star gets his much awaited call up for the IND vs SL 1st ODI.

Shreyas Iyer was in the center of attention after failing to play domestic matches. He complained of a back injury but was medically cleared by the NCA. As a result, the BCCI didn’t take the matter kindly. Though he played a couple of matches in Ranji Trophy, he found his name snubbed from the Central Contract list.
But now things have turned. The Rahul Dravid regime is over. It is now time for the Gautam Gambhir era. And given Gambhir mentored Iyer and KKR to lift IPL 2024, the new India head coach is ready to give Iyer his chance in ODIs.
And now because of the KKR connection. Shreyas Iyer was a standout performer for Team India in the ODI World Cup among batters including the likes of Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma. And now that India is poised to play another ODI series, it was just a matter of time before Iyer got his call back.
