• Shreyas Iyer, fully fit after a spleen injury, is set to return to international cricket in the first ODI against New Zealand on January 11.
• Iyer sustained the injury during the third ODI against Australia in Sydney on October 25, requiring minor surgery and recovery.
• Former India batting coach Sanjay Bangar advised Iyer to be cautious about rushing his innings and the desire to make an immediate impact in his comeback match.
• Bangar highlighted Iyer's strong performance in domestic cricket (Vijay Hazare Trophy scores of 82 and 45) and his understanding of ODI cricket.
• Iyer's ability to dominate spin, especially in the middle overs, is seen as a significant asset for Team India, particularly with the World Cup approaching.
