In what could be seen as a significant boost for the Indian cricket team, Shreyas Iyer, the talented batter, is expected to make a comeback to the playing XI in India's final Super 4 encounter against Bangladesh in the ongoing Asia Cup 2023. Iyer had been sidelined from the squad due to a back injury, which kept him out of the crucial India vs Pakistan and Sri Lanka clashes.

However, rain played the role of a spoilsport in both encounters, with matches being extended to three consecutive days on the 10th, 11th, and 12th. Despite the unfavorable weather conditions, Team India showcased their mettle and clinched victories.

Possible Rest for Virat Kohli; Shreyas Iyer Returns

Regarding Shreyas Iyer's injury, it appears to be less severe than initially feared. The team management and fans alike are optimistic about his return to the squad for the pivotal Super 4 fixture against Bangladesh, scheduled for Friday. Shreyas Iyer has been seen practicing confidently, and his inclusion in the playing XI would provide a much-needed boost to the Indian batting lineup.

Practice was missed by Virat Kohli, Hardik Pandya, Jasprit Bumrah, and Captain Rohit Sharma. The ones who participated included Shardul Thakur, Suryakumar Yadav, Ravindra Jadeja, Tilak Varma, and Shreyas Iyer, fuelling speculations that Virat Kohli might be given a rest in the upcoming India vs Bangladesh match.

Furthermore, the national selection committee is slated to announce the squad for the upcoming three-match series against Australia later this week. Iyer's fitness and availability will be closely monitored, as his presence in the squad could be vital for India's prospects in the series.

After three consecutive days of cricket, the India Cricket Team finally had a day off on Wednesday. However, in preparation for the upcoming IND vs BAN clash, Thursday morning's practice session was kept as an optional one.
