The announcement of India’s Asia Cup 2025 squad has started a large -scale debate, as Shreyas Iyer, one of the most consistent artists this season, has been taken away once again. Shreyas Iyer’s exclusion has given up many disappointment, and Akash Chopra openly questioned the decision of the selectors.
The former Indian batsman has called Iyer’s boycott from the upcoming Asia Cup 2025 as one of the biggest surprises of selection. Iyer scored more than 600 runs and directed Punjab Kings (PBK) in the IPL 2025 final. He was also sensationally in Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy and Ranji Trophy.

Mumbaikar also lifted the ICC Champions Trophy 2025 earlier this year. Despite this golden run, he did not find any place in the Asia Cup 2025 squad. Reacting to his snub, Chopra believes that Iyer has done everything that a player can possibly do, but the selectors continue to look else.

Akash Chopra said on his YouTube channel, “Not being Shreyas Iyer is a big story. What else will Shreyas Iyer have to do? What you can already do?
Akash Chopra T20 World Cup predicts for Shreyas Iyer for 2026 spots
Well, Iyer may remember the Asia Cup 2025, but the cricket expert predicted that the right -handed batsman will definitely cut India’s squad for the ICC T20 World Cup 2026, as male in blue is ready to play 15 T20I before the mega event in the country.
Chopra further mentioned, “This is the Asia Cup team. Do not associate the World Cup with it because there are 15 T20i. The world turns into 15 T20I. If he maintains runs in Odis, soon or later, Shreyas Iyer will be part of the team. I will be a strong feeling that Shreyas Years will be part of India’s T20.”
The commentator further stated that it was really surprising for him that Shreya Iyer’s name was not even in five stores for the upcoming continental tournament. He said that power hitters like Shivam Dub and Rinku Singh have been trusted for low-order roles despite their failure, and it makes sense.

Akash Chopra says that the move of Indian selectors sends a worrying signal for the future of Shreyas Iyer
But even youths like Dhruv Juraral, Yashasvi Jaiswal and Prasad Krishna are kept in the store, so the former Indian batsmen were disappointed. How could the selectors ignore Iyer? They feel that this step sends a worrying signal to the future of the stylish middle-order batter, yet despite their frequent performance in forms.
Chopra signed, saying, “At least one place could be made in the reserve players, where you have kept Dhruv Jurlel, Yashsvi Jaiswal, and Prasad Krishna. This player can be named there. You have not kept it there, and it does not completely send a great sign.
