Ricky Ponting Shocked by Shreyas Iyer's Uncertain Role in Team India

Australian cricket legend Ricky Ponting expressed surprise at Shreyas Iyer's inconsistent presence in India's white-ball lineup. Despite Iyer's outstanding performance in the 2023 World Cup and recent domestic success, he hasn't secured a permanent spot. Ponting believes Iyer's ability to dominate spinners on slow subcontinental pitches makes him a valuable asset. The former Australian captain expects Iyer to excel in the upcoming Champions Trophy, praising his dynamic play on slower wickets. Iyer's recent 59-run knock against England further validates his potential in the team.
