However, he may miss the first two matches. Actually, the Indian team that went to America and West Indies to play T20 World Cup 2024 is currently stuck in Barbados.

These players prove to be very dangerous in the middle order.

He has shown this in IPL. During IPL 2024, the left-handed batsman played for KKR and scored 370 runs in 14 matches at an average of 46.25. During this, Iyer's strike rate was 158.80.
