Notably, Avesh Khan made his Twenty20 debut in IPL 2017, as a part of Royal Challengers Banglore. The 21-year old pacer, who played for Delhi Capitals in IPL 2021 became the leading wicket-taker of the team by dismissing 24 players in 15 matches. After earning the national call-up, both the cricketers are all set to perform their best in the upcoming T20I series. Talking about the selection, Avesh Khan said that after years of hard work, his dreams have finally turned into a reality.

Around 7 decades ago, two young lads from Indore played for the national cricket team at the same time. India's first skipper- C K Naidu and cricket legend Syed Mushtaq Ali played for team India together in 1932. To carry forward this rich historic legacy, Khan and Iyer have some really big shoes to fill now.
