Another innings in Duleep Trophy and Shreyas Iyer failed once again. The surprising thing is that this time he failed after hitting 8 fours. This happened to him in the second innings of India D against India A, after which not only his chances of returning to Team India are in doubt, but the words of former Pakistani cricketer Basit Ali also seem to be coming true. Shreyas Iyer, who could not even open his account in the first innings against India A, failed to convert a good start into a big innings in the second innings.

Iyer got a good start but could not capitalise on it

India A has set a target of 488 runs for India D team led by Shreyas Iyer.

When Shreyas Iyer came to bat, the condition of the team was not that bad. They had scored 105 runs for 3 wickets. Ricky Bhui was doing a good job of running the scoreboard from one end. In such a situation, Shreyas Iyer had to play the anchor role. But, as soon as he came to the crease, he started scoring runs from boundaries more than singles and doubles. This increased the scoreboard rapidly but what was feared happened. In the pursuit of playing a fast innings, Shreyas Iyer could not stay on the wicket for long.

8 fours, 41 runs but what is the benefit?

Shreyas Iyer faced 55 balls in the second innings and scored 41 runs, which included 8 fours. After this, he was bowled by Shams Mulani. The way Iyer got a start, he had a full chance to extend his innings and change the direction of the fingers being pointed at him. But, he failed to do so.

Iyer has not been able to make an impact in 4 innings

Shreyas Iyer, who played his last Test for India in February this year, has failed to make an impact in the Duleep Trophy so far. He has scored only 104 runs in 4 innings, which includes 1 half-century.

In one of these 4 innings, his account was not opened while in the other he failed to touch the double-digit mark.
