Shreyas Iyer is been the most relaible number 4 for India there is really no doubt on it and after his champions trophy the voices against him has gone more deep down. Shreyas Iyer played a prominent role in Champions Trophy victory though he couldn't able to make his centuries but his 50+runs and the determination at the most crucial time matter the most. He was the second highest scorer who scored 243 runs behind Rachin Ravindra who scored 263 runs.
Shreyas had really tuff time after the world cup where he had to face lots of consequences sacked from Bcci contract and even in Champions Trophy it was not sure whether he will play for the team or not it was a statical situation for him but he didn't give up he was given a chance and he delivered at the most crucial time.

It was 2023 the world cup period and Iyer had a great world cup too but after the loss in finals he was asked to play the Ranji but there was no information from him and Bcci sacked his contract for no clarification but Iyer didn't utter the word, though at later stages of Ranji trophy Iyer made himself and won the Ranji, SMAT and on the line he went on to win the IPL trophy for Kolkata Knight Riders
He even scored in decent pace too which forced selectors to select him for the mega event of Champions Trophy and the rest was history Iyer played a crucial role in victory of champions Trophy. He was bought by Punjab Kings for 26 crore, it was really high stake for Iyer for his preservarance he showed in the most difficult times.

Shreyas Iyer has never been out spoken for which happened to him he has converted them into performances this has been his speciality. In recent chat with Hindustan Times he has spoken openly about it he said Very, very satisfying. Maybe I could have got a century, but no regrets. In fact, it was sweeter because I got the team to a decent total, and we were able to win by 44 runs

It has always been a complaint that Iyer suffers for short ball but in this Champions Trophy he smashed every short balls out of the ground he told that he had slight change with his stance with wide open which helped him a lot to get adjust with it. It gave me, a lot of confidence you look at my domestic season, I played so many this year and hit sixes off difficult deliveries. I gained a lot of confidence from that.
Technically, I was able to get a wide stance and create a great base, which enabled me to generate that force. I was able to replicate that in the England (home) series and the matches after that though being relaiable number 4 but Iyer is still not sure about his place which gives certain claims whether he is really unlucky though proving this much he is been neglected he just said "I don't have to send any message to anyone. All I have to do is believe in myself and play the best cricket possible. The message automatically gets delivered
