Shreyas Iyer, who last played for India in the Champions Trophy 2025, has been absent from international cricket since. The Asia Cup 2025 team selection also excluded him. Iyer, who is currently away from the game, posted a video on his social media account showcasing a magic trick, which has gained significant attention.
The video highlights Iyer’s involvement in the B7 Magic Bar tour. He performed a card trick for his fans, which left them thoroughly impressed. When asked about the method, the Indian cricketer kept the secret. Iyer has displayed his magic skills on several occasions. Fellow Indian players have commented on Iyer’s proficiency in card magic. This video is another demonstration of his skill beyond the cricket field.
Even with a strong showing in the Indian Premier League 2025, where he scored over 600 runs, and his solid performance in T20I cricket, Iyer was not selected for the Asia Cup 2025 squad. He could have been a valuable addition to the Indian team’s middle order. Iyer’s absence from the Asia Cup 2025 would likely have been a disappointment. He was also ignored during the five-match Test series against England.
