Nash Posted November 23, 2022 Share Posted November 23, 2022 He is not bad. He has problem with bouncers but he can do excellent on India pitches. He can play spinner much better than many others. Link to comment

I think his dismissal against short balls in recent times gives that impression. It started only recently. ODI series will give us the clue. Shreyas vs Pace In ODIs 831 balls 779 runs 21 dismissals 37 avge 93.74 strike rate In T20s 531 balls 692 runs 21 dismissals 33 avge 130.32 strike rate Link to comment
Majestic Posted November 23, 2022 Share Posted November 23, 2022 I will definitely play him in ODIs. He gives you consistency which Pant and Suryakumar will lack in this format due to their high risk game and too much of T20 cricket. His 50 in that first ODI vs South Africa for example is a kind of knock that had intent written all over and brought us with a chance to win that game. singhvivek141 and nevada 2 Link to comment
Bigg Brother Posted November 24, 2022 Share Posted November 24, 2022 Can't one solve his issue against Short ones or is it impossible? Kohli got out to short balls against Edwards in his debut test series and since he hasn't looked back. Improved his game against short balls immensely.... Link to comment
Stuge Posted November 24, 2022 Share Posted November 24, 2022 He will do fine in World Cup 2023 if selected. Link to comment
Norman Posted November 24, 2022 Share Posted November 24, 2022 Say what you want.. not picking Iyer for the home World Cup would be a monumental blunder. Will take him any day of the week over the technically strong mental midgets like BKL and Shitman. nevada and Chakdephatte 2 Link to comment

But Iyer, he gets out to any Tom, Dick, and Harry. He has one shot against bouncers which may have worked at junior level and he hasn't worked on his pull shot since then. Even if he gets into position, his pull will always lack power. Should have sorted it in childhood or at beat, early 20s.

tapandrun Posted November 24, 2022 Share Posted November 24, 2022 S.Iyer has been decent in ODIs has scored runs in whatever opportunities he has got-His . Yes he has v.obvious problems with short balls at any pace. He has managed that problem well in ODIs where there is no rush to score off every ball by leaving, ducking and scoring few runs in here and there. But in T20s he can not leave/duck short balls and gets out, T20s is not his cup of tea (not his format) where there is a need to score run of each ball batter can not voluntarily leave one ball each over just because they are not good at that kind of ball. Selections have been mindless, selecting players in formats other than the format that suites that player the best. Saying this players too have to improve specially the younger players. nevada 1 Link to comment

Vilander Posted November 24, 2022 Share Posted November 24, 2022 Can't play in bouncy or lateral movement wickets. Can play flat tracks against spinners very well. Definition of FTB. Link to comment

Nikhil_cric Posted November 26, 2022 Share Posted November 26, 2022 He definitely prefers spin but I think he's a solid batsman for ODIs generally and specifically in Indian conditions Link to comment

Shreyas so far has been more consistent in ODIs compared to Raina with bat. Both are comparable as fielders, also lets me realistic, if Raina was bowling today his economy would be 10+.
