‘Obviously he can’t be replaced’: Gavaskar has his say on Iyer’s batting position in T20Is on Kohli, Suryakumar’s return
Shreyas Iyer excelled in the three-day T20I series against Sri Lanka, bringing team management to a major but fortunate selection issue for the T20 World Cup squad. With the return of Virat Kohli and Suryakumar Yadav, former India captain Sunil Gavaskar has his thoughts on Iyer’s batting position in the squad.
Ayer managed to find a place in the squad after Kohli was released from the bio-bubble by the selectors ahead of their third T20I match against West Indies. He played No. 3 that game with 25 points on 16 shots, and then hit a 204-point game against Sri Lanka for a three-game unbeaten streak in half a century.
With Kohli’s return, Iyer had to slip one spot, but India also had Suryakumar Yadav, who completed the West Indies T20I series as tournament winner. So another place below, but the team has Rishabh Pant again. So where does Ayer fit in?
Gavaskar admits this is a big problem, and in an interview with Star Sports he believes that Kohli is still irreplaceable, so Iyer needs to be 4th or 5th alongside Suryakumar.
“It’s a big deal. Obviously Virat Kohli is irreplaceable. No doubt he’ll probably be No. 3. However, you can put someone like Shreyas Iyer in slot 4 or 5. Suryakumar, The way he hits the ball, he has to be included. As far as the team is concerned, it’s just an advantage,” he said.
The legendary batsman added that with a “top batting line-up”, India can afford to choose outright bowlers rather than capable bowlers.
“There are so many possibilities. It allows you to go into the game as a pure bowler rather than a bowler who can bat. With a top batting lineup, you can go head-to-head with unknown batsmen like Mohammed Siraj or Avesh Khan. You Don’t have to look for someone like Shardul Thakur or Deepak Chahar or Bhuvneshwar Kumar who can hit the ball. They can think of full attack,” he explained.
A two-test series is to follow the T20I series. India will now play T20I matches for the next two months thanks to the Indian Premier League, but will host South Africa’s five T20I series in June.

Mumbai defeats Vidarbha by 169 runs to win the 42nd Ranji Trophy, capping an eight-year reign.
Mumbai overcame Vidarbha by 169 runs in the Wankhede Stadium final on Thursday to end an eight-year drought for a record-tying 42nd Ranji Trophy victory. Vidarbha put up a valiant fight in the second inning to chase a massive 538 runs, but on Day 5, they were eventually bowled out for 368.
Vidarbha put up a valiant battle on Day 5 of the final, with captain Akshay Wadkar and Harsh Dubey leading the team’s struggle against Ajinkya Rahane’s troops. Vidarbha scored 81 runs in the opening session without losing a wicket thanks to the two’s resolute stance at the crease, which frustrated the home team.
Mumbai defeated Vidarbha by a commanding 169 runs in the Ranji Trophy final, putting on an outstanding display.
Following lunch, Wadkar gave Vidarbha’s innings a boost with a magnificent century, showcasing his batting prowess. But when it was time to step it up, Tanush Kotian got his wicket by lbw-ing Wadkar.
Following the captain’s exit, Vidarbha’s batting lineup came under increasing pressure. Even Dubey, who showed fortitude by hitting a steely 65 off 128 deliveries, gave in to the pressure of the scoreboard.
Mumbai’s bowlers strengthened their hold on the game as the innings went on. Vidarbha’s bottom order offered little resistance as Mumbai quickly completed the innings in just the next 25 deliveries.
Ajinkya Rahane gave the ball to Dhawal Kulkarni in a crucial moment following the loss of the ninth wicket in his final domestic encounter. With just his third ball of the spell, Kulkarni quickly secured the vital wicket of Umesh Yadav, securing Mumbai’s 42nd championship.
Mumbai won their first Ranji Trophy since 2016. The domestic powerhouses increased their lead over other teams in the standings for the most trophies won in the first-class competition. With Karnataka coming in a distant second, no other team has won the Ranji Trophy more times than this one.
