BENGALURU, Feb 15: Shreyas Iyer is fidgety at the crease, almost Steve Smith-like. He keeps swinging the bat up and down against pacers, and walks across the stumps against the spinners. He often adopts different stances too.
It gives his batting a touch of restlessness. But behind that exterior disquiet, works a steady, calculative brain focused on finding run-making ways, and it will be India’s biggest asset going into the Champions Trophy.
India will have varied threats to negate in the ICC showpiece’s league stages — spin from Bangladesh and New Zealand and pace from Pakistan.
