After announcing the squad for the Asia Cup 2025, one of the prominent names that was missing from the Indian team was that of Shreyas Iyer`s.

Following his omission from the national squad, former Team India batsman Robin Uthappa expressed concern and said that it seems strange not to have a player who has helped the side win the Champions Trophy 2025 title.

He took to his official social media handle and shared a post that read, "There are around 18 T20I`s to go before India play the next #T20WC; not having #ShreyasIyer who was integral in helping you win the CT seems strange. But one can only hope that he gets into this side soon coz he deserves it! I hope they have communicated to him about his exclusion. #AsiaCup2025 #TeamIndia".
