Wasim Akram says, "Shreyas Iyer will find it tough to make a comeback and play in the eleven"
Wasim Akram feels that Shreyas Iyer is going to find it extremely hard to make a comeback into playing eleven of team India after the brilliant performances by KL Rahul and Ishan Kishan in the middle order in the Asia Cup. After a long injury break, Shreyas made his comeback in India's first group-stage clash of the tournament.
Akram, while talking, suggested that Shreyas would find it hard to make it back to the playing eleven for India at the moment. The Pakistan legend feels that India will need to stick with players who got them runs in the middle order during the Asia Cup.
Akram said, "I guess it was at the last minute that Shreyas got back spasms. He had it in the last minute, just before the game. And I think KL Rahul played for him, and he went on to score a hundred against Pakistan, of course. It will be tough for him to make a comeback and play in the eleven to start off with. Now you have to play with the players who actually got runs in the middle order and present form."
