He ended the year with 1,609 international runs at an average of 48.75. He scored one century and 14 half-centuries, with a best of 113 not out.

In 17 ODIs, he scored 724 runs at an average of 55.69. He was extremely consistent in the format, scoring one century and six half-centuries in 15 innings in the 50-over format, with a best of 113 not out.
Iyer continued with his top form in T20Is as well, scoring 463 runs at an average of 35.61 with a strike rate of 141.15. Four half-centuries came off his bat in the T20Is in 2022, with the best knock of 74 not out.
Iyer was also a part of the Mumbai team that won its maiden Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy last year. In six matches Iyer played in the tournament, he scored 173 runs at an average of 28.83 with a best score of 73.
After a brief rest, Iyer will be back in India colours for the ODI series against Sri Lanka, which will start on January 10.
