Shreyas Iyer Returns as Captain; Ishan Kishan Recalled for India’s ODI Series
Shreyas Iyer has made a notable return to India's T20I team as captain after a two-and-a-half-year absence, following strong IPL performances and the retirement of Suryakumar Yadav. Meanwhile, Ishan Kishan, previously out of the national setup, earned a recall through domestic success and now serves as Iyer's vice-captain in the ongoing ODI series against New Zealand. Both players are seen as key figures in India's preparations for upcoming international tournaments, including the 2027 and 2028 World Cups.
