Shreyas Iyer

Oftentimes, players from both sides of any cricket match have a laugh if something funny happens during a game. Such an incident took place on Sunday in ...

In the meantime, a funny incident happened during the 12th over, bowled by Hayden Walsh. The second ball was full on off stump, and Shreyas tried to reverse sweep it. At No. 3, Deepak Hooda was superb as well, scoring 38 off 25 balls after Ishan Kishan departed cheaply. Despite Rohit Sharma's absence, India got off to an excellent start on Sunday during the fifth T20I against West Indies, taking place at Lauderhill, Florida. After stand-in captain Hardik Pandya won the toss and opted to bat, they raced to 135/3 in 14.3 overs before lightning forced them to stop the play.

Team India batter Shreyas Iyer slams a fifty during the fifth T20I against West Indies on Sunday in Florida.

Team India has rested skipper Rohit Sharma, Suryakumar Yadav, Rishabh Pant, and Bhuvneshwar Kumar for the fifth T20I against West Indies. In their absence, vice-captain Hardik Pandya has been given the leadership role. Finally, he's back in form, the way he's middled every delivery shows up his positive attitude and mindset.#ShreyasIyer pic.twitter.com/fw50yPGyyY — (@Shubh__ad)August 7, 2022 The fans were also impressed with the Indian batter’s performance. Rovman Powell bowled wide outside off stump delivery, Shreyas threw his bat at it and got it over the point fielder for a boundary to complete his fifty. Batting with positive intent, Shreyas took on the West Indies bowlers.

Shreyas Iyer opened the innings and top scored for the Indian team as he played a knock of 64 runs in 40 deliveries.

Shreyas Iyer went on to score 64 runs in 40 deliveries in this match and his innings included 8 fours and 2 gigantic sixes. Along with Hardik Pandya, the other players who made their way back into the playing XI for this game were Kuldeep Yadav, Shreyas Iyer and Ishan Kishan. There was one specific six which he hit off Odean Smith's delivery that never looked like going over the ropes but crossed it quite comfortably.

Stand-in skipper Hardik Pandya (28 off 16 balls) played a nice little cameo to beef up the score in the end.

It was the eighth over bowled by Odean Smith where Iyer launched into the bowler with back-to-back sixes -- a slash over point and a lofted drive over extra cover. It started getting slower with the passage of time and despite Shimron Hetmyer's (56 off 35 balls) resistance, it was never going to be enough as the Caribbean batting line-up never had the wherewithal to cope with the quality of Indian spinners. Then, Pandya handed the new ball to Axar Patel (3-1-15-3), who quickly removed makeshift opener Jason Holder (0), Shamarah Brooks (13) and Devon Thomas (10) with three arm balls on a track where balls stopped and gripped off the surface.
