Why did Shreyas Iyer write the second date of birth?
Shreyas Iyer There is no official confirmation as to why he has written the date of his second birth in his Instagram bio, but December 25, 2025 is considered a very important date in his career. In fact, this is the day when he started practicing again after suffering a serious injury in Australia. A fan wrote about this on an Instagram post. It is written in this post, ‘25.12.2025 was the day when Shreyas Iyer overcame the fatal injury and picked up the bat again. This is a new chapter in his life. Perhaps this is the reason why the number 25 is important in his life. After that accident, Shreyas Iyer has become more spiritual. ‘
Shreyas Iyer’s new beginning as a player too
Shreyas Iyer is also going to have a new beginning as a player. This player has been given the command of the T20 team and the Ireland series is his first test. Shreyas Iyer has been given the command of Team India in place of Suryakumar Yadav, under whose captaincy India won the T20 World Cup 2026. Suryakumar Yadav has now been dropped from the T20 team and trust has been placed on Shreyas Iyer.

Shreyas Iyer is a great captain
Shreyas Iyer has all the qualities of captaincy. He has presented proof of this in IPL. Under his captaincy, KKR won the IPL and he also performed brilliantly as captain for Delhi Capitals and Punjab Kings. The amazing thing is that under the pressure of captaincy, Shreyas Iyer’s performance with the bat does not deteriorate. Now it remains to be seen what wonders Team India does under his leadership in Ireland and England.
