Shreyas is a very natural leader: Abhishek Nayar

Former cricketer Abhishek Nayar feels Shreyas Iyer has got all the qualities of being a good leader of Team India. He expressed that the right-handed batter is a natural leader, who has the ability to take the mantle of the captain and also do well as a batter. Nayar added that Shreyas Iyer analyses the game well, and also supports his teammates. Speaking to the TOI, the former cricketer said,

“Shreyas is a very natural leader. We have seen him leading the teams in IPL. He led Delhi Capitals and now Kolkata Knight Riders. At a young age, he is someone who is being able to take the mantle of the captain and still able to perform with the bat as well. This is something that makes him a special kind of leader.”

“He is the kind of captain who lets people be, who lets people play the cricket the way they want to play. Shreyas is very tactical and thinks really hard about the game. He analyses the game and is someone who not just works on his game but also helps his teammates get betterPost the Rohit Sharma era, Shreyas is a great candidate (for captaincy). He has got all the qualities of being a good leader of the Indian team,” he added.
