Finally, Sarpanch Shreyas Back On Track!

Being the captain of the Indian national cricket team comes with its own set of responsibilities and expectations. So when a new captain does not perform as expected, it is going to be a lot of concern involved. 

Now in the absence of permanent captain Shubman Gill, it is the T20 captain Shreyas Iyer who is famously known as Sarpanch saab by fans, has taken up the responsibility as the interim campaign for the recent ODIs against New Zealand. 

Iyer had already been facing criticism for the poor performances in the T20 format, so there was responsibility on him to deliver for the team in the ODI series against New Zealand. 

But Shreyas was reasonably successful in leading the men in blue, as he was able to secure the series by imagine of 3-1 in away conditions. The last victory came today in a dramatic manner as India was able to successfully defend a target of 209. 

This will go down as one of the memorable victories for India in New Zealand as they were absolutely challenged in many aspects. This should boost the confidence of Shreyas Iyer, who has been in great need of success and numbers to sustain his captaincy position.

India will not be focussing on winning the test series that is coming up in a few days, but this is going to be a very big challenge. Defeating New Zealand in their own turf in such swinging conditions is going to be a task and half for India.
