‘Ready to bat anywhere’ - India batter throws hat in the ring for ICC Men’s Champions Trophy

Speaking to ESPN Cricinfo, Iyer said, “I'm flexible and ready to bat anywhere in the batting order.

“KL (Rahul) and I, we played that important role in the middle during the World Cup. We had a great season together. It was just the last bit (the final against Australia) that we couldn't execute the way we wanted to.

“It will be a proud moment for me if I were to be picked in the Champions Trophy (squad) to represent the country.”

Boasting an average of 47.5, Iyer has scored 2421 runs in 62 ODIs, comprising five centuries and 18 fifties.
