After that, he became one of the main batters in the middle order. Iyer is also known for his great ability to play spin bowling. While speaking to reporters, Dravid said: "We'll take a call after a couple of days of training. He's had a long session today in terms of training today, we'll assess it tomorrow as well, once he comes in for a light hit, and see how he feels in the evening. But certainly, if he's fit and ready to go and ready to take the load of a five-day Test match, then it is without doubt that his performance means he will walk straight into the side." Shreyas Iyer played the last Test series in Bangladesh.
