Shreyas Iyer's struggles continue in the 2024 Duleep Trophy as he recorded his second duck of the tournament, dismissed for a five-ball zero while India D was well-placed at 172/3 against India B. His performance has been disappointing, amassing only 104 runs across five innings, with an average of 20.80, raising doubts about his future in India's Test squad. Despite a solid start by openers Devdutt Padikkal and Srikar Bharat, who both scored half-centuries, Iyer's failure to capitalize on the situation further hindered his chances for selection. Leg-spinner Rahul Chahar's dismissal of Iyer marked a critical turning point, as it came after India D had a strong opening partnership of 105 runs. Iyer's recent performances have led to his exclusion from the Indian squad for the upcoming Test series against Bangladesh and potentially the ones against Australia and New Zealand. His future looks uncertain as he also lost his BCCI central contract, and while he may feature in domestic matches, his international career is in jeopardy.
