Cricket fans are saddened by not being selected in the Asia Cup 2025 as Shreyas Iyer, but at the same time his father is also very unhappy and he has raised his voice for his son. Shreyas Iyer’s father Santosh Iyer has expressed disappointment over his son being excluded from India’s Asia Cup 2025 team and said what else his son will have to do to enter the team.
Talking to the Times of India, he said, “I don’t know what else will have to do to make a place in the Indian T20 team. They are doing very well in the IPL year after year. From Delhi Capitals to Kolkata Knight Riders and Punjab Kings, they have also done well as a captain.
He further said, “I am not saying that make him an Indian captain, but at least choose him in the team. If he is thrown out of the team, there is no resentment on his face. He will just say ‘I have a luck. Now you cannot do anything.” They are always calm and restrained. They do not blame anyone, but inside, they will be naturally disappointed. “
At the same time, former Indian cricketer Krishnamachari Srikanth also expressed his displeasure over ignoring Iyer and said that the statement made by Agarkar to exclude Iyer was absolutely nonsense. On keeping Iyer out, Agarkar had felt that he could include Iyer in the last 15 place. Agarkar said, “In the case of Shreyas, whose place can they take? It is neither their fault nor ours. At present, you can choose only 15.”
Srikanth applied Agar Takkara and said, “For a player who has done so well, you are saying- ‘Tell me who he will replace the team.’ I am not able to understand this statement.
