Lone Wolf Posted March 22, 2021 Posted March 22, 2021 https://cricket.lancashirecricket.co.uk/news/2020-news/indian-international-shreyas-iyer-joins-lancashire-cricket/ Good move I think. Hopefully other Indian players follow suit.
YCCC Posted March 22, 2021 Posted March 22, 2021 (edited) Annoying. Fair play to the Lankies though they seem to be the only county taking this tournament seriously this year, everyone else will be playing their 2nds as most first teamers will be involved in the Hundred **** Edited March 22, 2021 by YCCC
YCCC Posted March 22, 2021 Posted March 22, 2021 I would question what the point is for Iyer. He’s only going to play 50 over games by the sound of it, and the next World Cup is in India
Sandeep99 Posted March 23, 2021 Posted March 23, 2021 Should have played this in 2018/19 before world cup.. Good move nonetheless
Jay Posted March 23, 2021 Posted March 23, 2021 India would never let English players get a chance to play in ranji or VHT.

England still has the club system where they try to sign foreign players to get more memberships and sponsorships. BCCI doesn't care if they play domestic games in empty stadiums.

afan Posted March 24, 2021 Posted March 24, 2021 Not sure how just a month long tourney can help him, but getting your name plated on the Old Trafford plaque is in itself an achievement. Top Indian batters needs to play atleast a season in the English counties if India has to win in England
