Shreyas Iyer’s Injury update
If Iyer’s health is good, the injury still raises the question of his playing in the next matches, including the next ODI series. The board has not indicated when he might come back, which shows that the internal injury is serious and that cautious management is hence required. This situation for the Indian team indicates that they might be deprived of their vice captain who is also a crucial middle order batter for an unspecified period. It stresses not only the risk of injury to fielders but also the necessity of injury management in cricket tours of high intensity. The team will observe Iyer’s recovery very closely while getting ready for the next part of their itinerary.
