Fit and available Shreyas Iyer walks in as captain and bats at No. 3 when IPL 2021 resumes: Aakash Chopra

Former India opener Aakash Chopra has said that a fit and available Shreyas Iyer will definitely walk in as the skipper of Delhi Capitals when the postponed IPL 2021 resumes. Chopra added that Iyer will make a strong DC side even stronger.

Shreyas Iyer if fit and available, will walk in as the captain of Delhi Capitals side when the postponed IPL 2021 season resumes, former India opener Aakash Chopra has said. The cricketer-turned-commentator was answering to a fan question in which he was asked if Shreyas Iyer can lead DC mid-season. Notably, Rishabh Pant captained the side in their first eight league matches as regular captain Iyer was ruled out due to a shoulder injury. He underwent a surgery in early April and is expected to stay out of action for 3 to 4 months.
