Hardik Pandya has made a permanent place in Team India due to his brilliant performance. His performance is also behind this, which cannot be ignored. Pandya is considered the most dangerous all-rounder in the world. He has achieved this position by winning many matches for India. But, because of him, the career of another Indian all-rounder was eclipsed. The name of that player is Venkatesh Iyer. Venkatesh could not become the first choice of the selectors due to Pandya. Due to this, he is being called the exit door.
Venkatesh Iyer ignored by the selectors
Venkatesh Iyer is one of the talented players. Like Pandya, Iyer is also adept at showing his skills in bowling and batting. He has proved his talent in domestic cricket as well as IPL. However, he could not make a place in the hearts of the selectors, due to which Venkatesh could not get many opportunities in Team India. Although he got some opportunities, he could not perform as expected in international cricket as was expected from him. But, the selectors should have given him a chance to prove himself. Iyer has been waiting for a comeback for almost 2 years. But, his dream has not been fulfilled yet.
The last match was played in the year 2022
It is said that in cricket, someone gets punished. Mahendra Singh Dhoni has been accused that due to him Wriddhiman Shah and Dinesh Karthik did not get a chance and their career ended prematurely. At the same time, something similar is being seen in the case of Venkatesh Iyer. He is getting a chance due to Hardik Pandya. Let us tell you that Iyer played his last match for India against Sri Lanka in the year 2022. Venkatesh has played 2 ODIs. In which he has scored only 24 runs. Whereas he has scored 133 runs in 7 innings of 9 T20 matches.
