Iyer’s Exclusion Stands Out, Should Have Been A Part Of Asia Cup Squad, Says Paranjape
Dubai International Cricket Stadium: Former India cricketer and selector Jatin Paranjape believes Shreyas Iyer’s omission from the Asia Cup squad is notable and he should have been included in the 15-member team for the multi-nation tournament happening in the UAE from September 9-28.Iyer’s exclusion stands out, should have been a part of Asia Cup squad, says Paranjape
Iyer had scored 604 runs in 17 matches at a strike rate of 175 and an average of 50.33 in IPL 2025 and even captained Punjab Kings to a runners-up finish. But he failed to find a place in both India’s squad for the Asia Cup and the five reserve players list.
"As always, it’s a very strong Indian team that will take the field at the Asia Cup. T20 is a format where India has done really well, and being the current world champions only adds to the confidence. The competition for places is so intense that any squad selection is bound to invite debate."
