Shreyas Iyer reveals Why Vaibhav Sooryavanshi is not playing?

Here’s what Indian captain, Shreyas Iyer, said on Vaibhav Sooryavanshi’s absence: “Unfortunately, no. He’s a gun player. But obviously, we’ve got tremendous experience in the squad who have done brilliant in the past couple of series for India. So we are backing majority of our cricketers who have been doing absolutely marvellous throughout the season. So I think he’outside the leg-stump get his opportunity when the time comes. But for now, we are going with three genuine seamers, one all-rounder, and two spinners.“

Matthew Humphreys opens up about facing India, “It’s really exciting. They’re obviously one of the best teams in the world, and it’s not every day you get to play them on home soil. So yeah, it’s a challenge we’re really looking forward to.“
