Iyer may replace Kohli for Afghan Test

Bengaluru, May 7:
Virat Kohli’s maiden county sojourn might pave the way for Shreyas Iyer entry into the Indian squad for the one-off Test against Afghanistan starting June 14, when the national selection committee meets to pick a host of squads here tomorrow.
Kohli, who will be playing for Surrey for the entire month of June, will also miss the two T20 Internationals against Ireland in Dublin at the end of that month.
While Ajinkya Rahane is set to lead the Indian team for the Test match, Rohit Sharma is likely to be in-charge during the Ireland leg with Kohli taking over at the start of July, a BCCI official said.  (PTI)
