Criticism Grows Over Shreyas Iyer’s Captaincy

Shreyas Iyer is yet to register a win since taking over as T20 captain, with Team India losing two matches each against Ireland and England, while one match was abandoned due to rain. This has triggered growing criticism on social media regarding his leadership. However, his sister Shresta has strongly defended him, stating that every sportsperson goes through a tough phase in their career.

She pointed out that legends like Sachin Tendulkar, Virat Kohli, and Rohit Sharma have also faced setbacks. Expressing confidence in her brother, she said Shreyas is a brilliant player who will soon bounce back and silence critics. Meanwhile, the fourth T20 against England is crucial for India, as a win is necessary to keep their chances alive in the five-match series.
