It will be very difficult for Shreyash Iyer to make a place in Playing 11, these players will get a challenge

IPL 2021: Shreyas Iyer has returned to Delhi Capitals for the second part of the Indian Premier League Season 14. Delhi Capitals, however, have made it clear that despite the return of Iyer, the team’s command will remain in the hands of Rishabh Pant. Not only this, Iyer, who gave Delhi Capitals a place in the final last year, is also not certain to play in the playing 11.

Body contenders are at number three

Iyer will have to face Steve Smith to make the place at number three. Ricky Ponting is showing great faith in Smith. Apart from this, Delhi Capitals also have options like Hetmyer and Stoinis for number three. Number four is completely fixed for Rishabh Pant. Iyer is not known to bat below number four.

Since Shreyas Iyer is returning to cricket after a long gap of 6 months, Delhi Capitals may probably avoid the risk of giving him a place in their opening matches. After confirming the place in the playoffs, however, Shreyas Iyer can get a place in the playing 11 comfortably.
