Kolkata. Shreyas Iyer missed the last IPL and suffered a few injuries before that, but everything seems to be behind him as he joined up with Kolkata Knight Riders on his home ground on Saturday.
The KKR captain was troubled by a back injury for some time. He recovered from this injury after a long time in September 2023 but he had this problem again in February after the second Test against England. He had told the Indian medical staff that he was facing problem in playing long innings.
Shreyas was declared fit to play, but was dropped for the last three Tests. He did not play Mumbai’s Ranji Trophy league match, instead he went to KKR’s camp but after that he played the semi-finals and final, where his team won the title. Shreyas did not take the field for the last two days of the final against Vidarbha due to back pain.
When the franchise bought him for Rs 12.25 crore in 2022, he scored 401 runs in 14 matches for KKR. He finished seventh under his captaincy that season. They will start the season on Saturday against Sunrisers Hyderabad in Kolkata.
