Former England spinner Monty Panesar, in conversation with IndiaToday.in, offered a bold assessment that Shreyas Iyer has missed out on T20I selection because of his captaincy credentials. The left-arm spinner also endorsed Jasprit Bumrah's inclusion in the Asia Cup squad.

India’s Edgbaston Test selection hinges on Bumrah’s fitness and the spin combination. Dry conditions favour two spinners, with Sundar, Jadeja, and Kuldeep vying for spots. Kuldeep’s X-factor could be crucial if Bumrah is rested. The team faces a tricky balance between batting depth and wicket-taking potency.
