Nagpur, Feb. 7 -- Shreyas Iyer, who delivered a game-changing knock of 59, was meant to sit out in the opening ODI against England. However, it all changed when he got the late-night selection call from skipper Rohit Sharma.

There were speculations that Yashasvi Jaiswal received his maiden ODI cap due to Virat's knee issue. However, after the game, Shreyas hinted that the young southpaw was in the original plans for the game, and it was he who was going to start the series on the bench.

Shreyas, watching a movie when he received the skipper's call, had to cut short his movie night and march off to sleep straight away.
