Shreyas Iyer is set for a much-anticipated return to the Indian cricket team as they gear up for a crucial clash against New Zealand. The stylish middle-order batter, who has been sidelined due to recent niggles, brings firepower and stability to the lineup.
Former India bowling coach Sanjay Bangar has sounded a cautionary note. Speaking exclusively, Bangar emphasized that complacency could be costly against the Black Caps. ‘New Zealand’s bowling attack is world-class. Iyer must be at his sharpest,’ he advised.
India’s preparations have been intense, with the team management focusing on balancing experience and youth. Iyer’s inclusion strengthens the batting order, especially after some inconsistent performances in recent series.
Bangar highlighted Kane Williamson’s tactical acumen and the pace duo of Tim Southee and Trent Boult as major threats. ‘Their ability to exploit conditions makes them dangerous on any pitch,’ he noted.
Iyer’s comeback comes at a pivotal time. His aggressive strokeplay and composure under pressure have been missed. Fans are eager to see him anchor the innings against NZ’s probing bowlers.
The match promises high drama, with both teams vying for supremacy in the series. India’s dominance at home will be tested, and Bangar’s words serve as a timely reminder.
As the series unfolds, all eyes will be on Iyer’s performance and whether Team India heeds the expert advice to stay vigilant.
