In a blow to Mumbai's Ranji Trophy campaign, star batter Shreyas Iyer has been ruled out of their upcoming match against Tripura. The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) sources have confirmed that Iyer will rest for at least a week after playing seven consecutive multi-day matches. This decision is seen as part of his ongoing effort to manage his workload as he aims for a national comeback.
Iyer, who recently underwent back surgery, mentioned after scoring a century against Maharashtra that his body needed rest, despite external expectations. His absence comes as Mumbai prepares for their fixture in Agartala, starting on November 26. Although Mumbai Cricket Association (MCA) will not announce a replacement, the team remains optimistic about their upcoming match.
Iyer's hopes for a return to the Indian national team remain uncertain. While he has featured in both the Asia Cup and the World Cup since his recovery, he lost his spot in the squad. The Indian team is gearing up for a five-match Test series against Australia, with the squad to be announced soon. Though Iyer is not currently in contention, his talent makes him a wildcard for future opportunities. For the latest updates and match predictions, visit the
