T20 World Cup 2022: Best XI among not selected players in India's squad

4. Shreyas Iyer

Shreyas Iyer has not made it to the main squad but will be traveling with the Indian team as a stand-by player. He was a part of the list of reserve players even during the Asia Cup 2022 but never made it to the main squad even after a couple of injury concerns in the main team.

Iyer has faced a lot of criticism recently for giving away his wicket cheaply. The batter has constantly faced problems with short-pitch deliveries. He has majorly ended up losing his wickets to such deliveries and that would be a concern on Australian soil.

It was not surprising to not see Iyer’s name in the roaster, because many other players deserved a place over him, of which some even made the cut. Iyer’s last international stint was against the West Indies, where he fell prey to the short pitch deliveries and left everyone unimpressed.
