Gautam Gambhir: In cricket, we often see that a player is liked a lot by the coach and captain and he is given a lot of opportunities. However, despite this, if he is not able to perform well, he is dropped from the team.

Now a similar player has emerged for Team India, who is a favourite of India's head coach Gautam Gambhir but his performance has been declining for some time now. This player has already been dropped from T20 and Test.

Gautam Gambhir's darling is counting his last breaths in ODI

Actually, the player we are talking about is none other than Team India's star batsman Shreyas Iyer.

Iyer and Gambhir get along very well because during IPL 2024, the pair of these two did wonders for Kolkata Knight Riders.

Iyer has already become a one format player for Team India and now that format is also in danger because Shreyas did not perform well in the recent ODI series against Sri Lanka and if he flops in another series, he could be shown the exit door.

Shreyas is out of T20 and ODI

Shreyas has not performed badly for India in T20 cricket but he is unable to find a place in the team due to team balance. In such a situation, there is doubt on whether he will be able to play in this format or not.

On the other hand, his performance in the Test format has been very disappointing and due to this he has been dropped from the Test team.

Iyer played a Test match against England earlier this year but was dropped due to not performing well in the first two matches.

Did not get a chance against Bangladesh either

The right-handed batsman has not been selected in Team India for the Test series against Bangladesh starting on September 19. Let us tell you that the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) has announced India's squad for the first Test match and Iyer's name is not included in it.

In such a situation, the selectors have now given clear indications that he will hardly be selected in Test cricket as well.

In this way, now Shreyas has only one format left and if he is unable to perform well in this format as well, then he may be shown the way out.
