Former India batsman Sanjay Manjrekar believes it will be challenging for India’s new T20I captain Shreyas Iyer, who will be returning to the national team after a gap of three years.

Iyer, who played his last T20I against Australia in December 2023, will lead India in two T20Is versus Ireland (at Belfast on June 26, 28) followed by a five-T20I series against England, starting at Chester-le-Street on July 1.
