"We have come with a plan and we have to execute as much as possible because going into the world Cup we need to see to it that we have ticked all the boxes. This is a five-match series, so it is a perfect time that we try different stuff and see what suits us," Iyer said. The selectors have picked IPL performers, like Suryakumar Yadav, Ishan Kishan and Rahul Tewatia, for the England series, while the in-form Rishabh Pant made a comeback. Asked if he is under any pressure to perform, Iyer replied: "I am in no sort of pressure to perform; I am playing freely, happily and enjoying my innings."

The result of Shreyas Iyer’s back scan is out, and it is not encouraging. As a result, he may not be able to play in the upcoming ODI series against Australia and may also miss the upcoming season of the Indian Premier League (IPL).

It is important to note that Iyer was previously ruled out of the ODI series against New Zealand in January due to a back injury. Rajat Patidar replaced him in the squad. The BCCI had issued a statement saying that he would be going to the National Cricket Academy (NCA) for further assessment and management. Iyer’s injury resurfacing now raises questions about the functioning of the NCA, as this is not the first time such an injury has occurred. It is expected that the selectors, who are currently present in Ahmedabad, will take a call regarding Iyer’s participation in the ODIs against Australia.

He has gone for scans and the BCCI Medical Team is monitoring him,” the BCCI statement on Sunday morning read. Anirudh is the Head of Content at 12 years of experience in the f...
