    Shreyas Iyer ready to bat anywhere for the team in Champions Trophy

    January 13, 2025

    Indian batter Shreyas Iyer is ready to bat anywhere for the team in the upcoming Champions Trophy and said he will be proud if he is picked for the tournament. Iyer played an instrumental role in taking India to the final in the ODI World Cup 2023.

    In the ODI World Cup 2023, Iyer scored 530 runs at an average of 66.25 with two centuries and three fifties. Iyer mostly bats at number four in the 50-over version and it will be interesting to note where he would bat in the marquee event.

    “Absolutely. I’m flexible and ready to bat anywhere in the batting order. KL (Rahul) and I played that important role in the middle during the World Cup. We had a great season together. It was just the last bit (the final) that we couldn’t execute the way we wanted to. It will be a proud moment for me if I were to be picked in the Champions Trophy (side) to represent the country,” Iyer was quoted as saying by ESPNCricinfo.

    On the other hand, Shreyas Iyer has been appointed as Punjab Kings’ captain for the upcoming IPL 2025. Iyer was bagged for a whopping amount of INR 26.75 crore and he said he would bat at one down for the franchise.

    “I want to be that anchor in the team who usually plays at No. 3, who can bat, once set, until the 15th-16th over and end on a good note. That’s how I started playing my cricket in the past, when I was representing DC. Also, when we were brainstorming with Ricky (Ponting), this was the position (we spoke about) for me to be in.”

    IPL 2025 will begin on March 21 at Eden Gardens, Kolkata.
