Shreyas Iyer Best Choice to Lead Indian ODI Team?

Shreyas Iyer has been one phenomenal player, proving his worth multiple times both for India as well as for his IPL franchises.

Last year’s IPL saw a determined Shreyas getting his team, the KKR, a much sought-after tournament victory, making sure that KKR clinches the trophy for the 3rd time.

Apart from that, he has also led the DC squad the year they went on to play in the finals.

Shreyas and PBKS have been a separate love story of their own, with the skipper comfortably taking the franchise into the playoffs.

Playing a total of 82 games, he has won 48 of them, making his win percentage a solid 58.53%.

Seeing this near-perfect track record, as well as the imminent transition due in the ODI team, many have started wondering whether it may be the right time for Rohit Sharma to hand over the reins of captaincy to Shreyas.

People want Rohit to act in the same manner as Dhoni when he relinquished his captaincy to Kohli in 2017.

With speculation at an all-time high, it will be interesting to see if the board or the current skipper take note of the situation to ensure that the future of Indian cricket goes into safe hands, which, by the looks of things, looks to be that of Shreyas Iyer.
